Valley of the Flowers - Part 2

Here is part 2 of the video we were able to salvage from the Valley of the Flowers festival earlier this month.

One thing that is consistent in these witness encounters is that people have a wrong understanding of what the Bible says concerning God and man. People are content with their own personal views and are not that concerned with whether or not those personal views line up with Scripture. It is our duty as Christians to proclaim the holiness of God by opening up His law. We need to show people how they have broken it, not once or twice, but every moment of their lives! If you think that's too harsh, just name one moment of your own life that you have loved God perfectly as Scripture says you ought to. We are to show them that the just penalty for their crimes against God is to be cast into the lake of fire, not separated from God, but rather crushed under His wrath for an eternity.

They MUST see their true condition before a holy God...
  • before they'll see their need of a Savior
  • before they'll see they desperately need God's forgiveness
  • before they'll even come close to understanding that Christ suffered under God's wrath in their place
  • before they'll see the Cross as anything more than foolishness



To Him alone be the glory,
