This film ran into issues with the film censor boards in Maryland, New York and Ohio. They objected to a scene from the hell sequence showing a woman's bare breast. The board in Ohio also demanded the removal of images of the devil chewing on a man in the hell sequence. Those scenes were from the very successful Dante's Inferno (1911).
This film was the third in a trilogy of religious films directed by noted African-American filmmaker Spencer Williams. He previously directed The Blood of Jesus (1941) and the now-lost Brother Martin (1942).
