Spiritual Slate Writing.

By Uriah Smith

It has been suggested that the article on “Spiritual Slate Writing,” given in REVIEW of Aug. 2, 1877, may mislead some to suppose that we favor spiritualism, as it was not accompanied with comments. With any who have had any acquaintance with our views, no idea could prevail that we favor that great delusion; and in this particular instance, the article appearing in the Watch Tower Department, the motto of which is, “Can ye not discern the signs of the times?” we think will indicate with sufficient clearness to those who are thoughtful enough to be benefited, that it was not given to indicate that we indorse that ism, but only as a sign of the times.
