“Do you think⟳ it impossible that a perfect spirit like⟳ Jesus should be able to materialize the perispritic fluids of the superior worlds, and add⟳ and adapt the earthly fluids of which your bodies are composed to produce⟳ a tangible perispritic body, suited to his earthly mission, which should apparently represent⟳ the faculties and phases of your humanity.”
