the power of the devil In November, a church held a pageant, and the ending was of a battle between God and Satan. The church hired a stage actor to play Satan, and true to the actor’s form, he used many special effects to make Satan appear more realistic. The actor used a voice shifter for a dark and evil voice, and also used his fire-breathing skills to make the devil more devilish. The dramatic show was too much for two congregation members, because the two had a heart attacks during the performance. One was in critical condition, the other died. Copyright Janet Kuypers.
