Churches and Questionable Fundraising

The officers of the Second Presbyterian Church, Oakland, have declined to accept the proceeds of a dramatic entertainment and dance in a public hall, which had been offered them for the benefit of the church. We are happy to record this instance of Christian integrity, and sorry that such instances are so rare. When churches resort to questionable means to obtain money, they simply accept a bribe from the devil.
