ELECTRIC PATHWAY TO SUNS 231 



quarters of Deity, and the future abode of man. 

 This leads to the reasonable scientific hypothesis 

 that our all-life-giving sun is where Christ ascended 

 to, when the Disciples saw "a cloud receive him out 

 of their sight;" where Elias was translated; where 

 Paul was " snatched up to the seventh heaven"; 

 where Saint John in the Apochalyptic journey saw 

 " the new Jerusalem the City of God." This wonder- 

 ful city, from scientific facts and analogy, exists in 

 the sun and could be no where else, and seems to 

 be so represented in Revelations, and its description is 

 grander than all the romances of earth. This gives 

 the most reasonable scientific explanation of Rev- 

 elations and the eternal beatitudes of the Christian's 

 life everlasting, while at the same time it recog- 

 nizes the law of evolution, and proclaims there is 

 nothing supernatural in the universe. 



I contend that the sun's photosphere is a bril- 

 liant, globe-encircling aurora ; that the planets are 

 the hatcheries of human souls, and the suns the 

 place of their maturity and perfection; that all 

 things are composed of atoms and electricity, which 

 are as invisible as the soul. That the soul is an 

 invisible atom of Deity, and, like invisible atoms and 

 electricity, may pass to and from the sun. 



In showing the terraced mountain on which the 

 city in Revelations was built accorded with the 

 proportions of the sun as compared with the earth 

 and moon, a simpler illustration would be this : 

 The sun's diameter is 110 times that of the earth, 

 and as the earth has mountains six miles high, the 

 sun should have them 110 times higher, which would 

 be about 700 miles in perpendicular height, making 

 about 1,200 miles measuring the slope from the
