A chat with Jorge Gomes
from
Portugal
This week’s editorial,
The concept on the eternal
punishment is a
misconception explains
why the doctrine of eternal
punishment, taught by the
Church is not accepted by
Spiritism.
Jorge Gomes, editor of
"Journal of Spiritism,"
created by the Association
of Promoters of Spiritism of
Portugal (ADEP), talks about
the important objectives of
the journal, in an interview
that - given to the
colleague José Lucas - is
one of the highlights of
this issue.
Another highlight of this
issue is the special article
“From atom to the angel:
the evolution of the
intelligent principle”,
authored by the colleague
Ricardo Baesso de Oliveira,
from Juiz de Fora, MG. The
article was divided into two
parts; the conclusion will
be published next week.
On April 18th
thorugh 21st, the
colleague Divaldo Franco was
active in doctrinal
activities in Rio Grande do
Sul in the cities Caxias do
Sul, Vacaria, Novo Hamburgo
and Porto Alegre, as shown
in the report by Paulo
Salerno, which is also one
of the highlights of this
edition.

Divaldo is certainly the
best known spiritist in the
world, not only for the
dozens of works that he has
psychographed, but
especially for the
conferences where he has
been presenting for 65 years
in hundreds of locations in
Brazil and abroad.
