The Object of the Signs
By Editor
The gentleman whose questions we answer on another page, in his letter to us expresses his appreciation of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES in the following manner:— "I like the paper because it gives so much Bible truth, not making man's thoughts too prominent, [which is] a very common fault in the religious journals to-day. Then I like it because while discussing the debatable questions of the day in a liberal spirit, it seeks no higher authority than God's word." We do not wish for any higher recommendation for the paper than this. To uphold the word of God as the supreme and sole authority in all matters of faith and duty, is the one object of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES. We know of no higher authority than the Bible. And when we say that, we mean the Bible as interpreted by the Bible, and not by some man's opinion. There is no man so good or so learned that his opinion is worth anything if it conflicts with the plain teaching of Scripture.
