The position of Napoleon iii. to Napoleon I. according to prophecies, cannot be understood except in the magnetic chain of events shown in our system which will be explained in our monthly theological course, which is announced in this book for the introduction of the New Era.  Although the Pope of Rome and the Emperor Napoleon, both may be destroyed at the abolition of systems which they, each in his sphere, represent, notwithstanding this we labour most earnestly, that their lives may be preserved and they come into our New Jerusalem and draw millions of others into it.  At the explosion of the percussion shells, in which others have been killed at the entrance to the theatre, but Napoleon’s life was preserved, peculiar manifestations took place.  The explanation of that mystery will be annexed as an appendix to the above mentioned treatise, in which the mystery of the succession of Bishops of Paris is explained.  The representative of bishops who have generated such fruits as are manifest in Paris, has suffered death.  But Emperor Napoleon’s life was preserved at other occasions of danger as well as at the explosion of the percussion shells; and we are labouring in the expectation that he will understand this book and become with us a great apostle removing the severe judgments and the dreadful bondage, which are connected with his present government, and assisting us in the preparation for the great resurrection of those in their mortal bodies as well as of their departed friends.  All that is written in this book is written for a peculiar instruction to all, and especially to those who are strong Mediums of deluding and destroying spirits the great Prince amongst whom is Emperor Napoleon.  But we write this treatise, to deliver him from those miserable tyrants, and to make him a preacher of peace also to his departed friends.  What we write for him, we write that it might be used by all readers.
