Dear Church,

I visited your Sunday School last Sunday and I was overjoyed to see that so many of you had not come. I heard some lessons that were not very well prepared, and some teachers reported they had made no visits or contacts for the week. They make my heart leap for joy.

I was thrilled, so thrilled last Sunday when I saw so many people walk away after Sunday School, taking with them their wives, husbands and children from the morning service. I always tremble when they attend the preaching service because there they will get their against souls fed and there is always the possibility that someone will give their heart to the Lord and be saved. It is always helpful to me for members of the Sunday School to dodge their responsibility. It gives me such a good chance to get in my Sunday punches. Then, too, I laughed with glee when I saw how many of you failed to pay your tithes, and give offerings. I like to see you make the preacher and church board squirm and worry about finances. It takes away from the time they could be using to minister to souls for Christ.

I am writing you this personal letter to beg you to stay away from the Sunday School and preaching. You know it is more comfortable at home. Besides, when you stay home and fail to tithe and support the church, it makes my work so much easier.

I hope to have you with me soon.

As always against revival,

LUCIFER.
