Christian Spirit Center
Christian Spirit Center
The Christian Spirit Center was an American branch of the Brazilian Spiritualist movement and existed primarily to translate the messages of Brazilian mediums (spoken in Portuguese) into English. Brazilian Spiritualism is derived from the French spiritism of Allan Kardec and gives central importance to reincarnation.
The center affirmed the continuity of life after death (proved by Christ in his resurrection), the law of cause and effect, reincarnation, and the freedom and moral responsibility of people. Last known address: P.O. Box 114, Elon College, NC 27244.
