Criticizing those churches thai
are supporting the Darkness and
light" missionary pageant the Rev
Christopher Burnett. pastor OF the
Maranatha Baptist church. formerly
The Ferry-ave. Baptist. told the
members of his congregation Sun
day night that the play was merely
Satan transforming himself into an
angel OF light"
The drama has no place In the
work OF God" said Mr.. Burnett. 1T
Is wicked TO think OF churches en-
gaging in such an enterprise. do
not believe that God ever intended
that tho sinners need and the Cos
pei message be put into the Ian
guage OF play. Darkness and
light may have q moral message.
but oppose II especially when so
closely connected with the church.
II Gods word is not sufficient TO
create missionary interest in the
Christian heart, Lord pity the Chris
