Religious Freedom for All

By Editor

THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES believes in religious freedom for all to believe or not believe. It believes this because it believes in Jesus Christ, who said:—
"And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not; for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him; the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day."
Because man does not in his finite wisdom have power to read hearts, we prefer to leave it all to God's wisdom and God's time, the final judgment. He who knows the love of Christ will seek to instruct, persuade, beseech, and win his fellow-men to ways of truth, but he will not compel.
