We Cannot Come Down

We "Can not Come Down."—Frequently our correspondents send us copies of papers or clippings containing some criticism of an article in this paper, or concerning the doctrine it defends, requesting us to reply to them. If we do not do this soon, along comes another letter saying that we can not answer the paper sent; the argument is too much for the SIGNS. Just a word upon this: (1) It would be impossible for this paper to notice a tenth part of the things which come here; we have not space. (2) We have no desire to turn aside to small issues or questions of little moment. God has a definite message for this time, and the SIGNS OF THE TIMES is endeavoring to present it to the world. There are those who will try to hinder God's workers as of old. Let them answer as did Nehemiah on a like occasion, "I am doing a great work, so that I can not come down."
