“The Gospel According to Spiritism” is one of the five fundamental works of the Spiritist codification by Allan Kardec. This book focuses on interpreting the teachings of Jesus Christ from a Spiritist perspective, aiming to harmonize them with mediumistic phenomena and the new revelations that Spiritism brings. Kardec seeks to elucidate the moral maxims of Christ, correlating them with Spiritist doctrine and applying them to various situations of daily life.

The book explains various Gospel passages, providing insights into how these teachings can be understood and lived in the light of Spiritism. It addresses themes such as charity, forgiveness, the true nature of happiness, and the importance of inner transformation. Kardec’s work is foundational in illustrating how Spiritism seeks to explain the afterlife and spiritual phenomena and offer a pathway toward moral improvement and enlightenment based on Christian ethics.

Moreover, “The Gospel According to Spiritism” serves as a guide for moral living, proposing that understanding and living according to the teachings of Jesus can lead individuals to overcome material and moral difficulties by fostering love, compassion, and fraternity. It emphasizes the role of spiritual evolution in human life and the importance of benevolent actions and thoughts in achieving true happiness and peace, both in the physical and spiritual realms. Through this book, Kardec aimed to bridge the gap between traditional Christian beliefs and the new understandings presented by Spiritism, offering a renewed interpretation of religious teachings for the modern age.
