Rad For Jesus: Jericho's Echo - Punk Rock In The Holy Land

Jericho's Echo - Punk Rock In The Holy Land

In this critically acclaimed documentary, rebellious Israeli youth take up the arms of punk rock, loud guitars, and mohawks in the most politically charged area of the world. Through interviews, verite« scenes and live musical footage, we see how these well-spoken and outspoken kids deal with life in the Middle East. Looking at Israel through the eyes of punk rockers is an uncommon vantage point, but the voices of these diverse young people illuminate the thoughts of a generation of disillusioned Israelis who yearn for an end to the bleak politics of war, so that they might live out their dreams. Featuring bands Useless I.D. (Kung Fu Records), Man Alive (Militia Group), Nikmat Olalim, Chaos Rabak, Retribution and more.

(FAIR USE)

I just happened to come across this on YouTube. I don't agree with all of the views/opinions that are spoken of here, and there is some cussing, but I thought this was an interesting display of some youth in Israel - punk rockers - and an opportunity to gain some insight.

F.A.I.T.H.

F Is For Forgiveness - Everyone has sinned and needs God's forgiveness (Romans 3:23); God's forgiveness is in Jesus only (Ephesians 1:7)

A Is For Available - God's forgiveness is available for all (John 3:16); But God's forgiveness is not automatic (Matthew 7:21).

I Is For Impossible - According to the Bible, it is impossible to get to Heaven on our own (Ephesians 2:8-9); So how can a sinful person have eternal life and enter Heaven?

T Is For Turn - If you were going down the road and someone asked you to turn, what would he or she be asking you to do? (Change direction); Turn means to repent (being sorry enough to not want to do it again and being committed to that); Turn away from sin and self (Luke 13:3); Turn to Jesus alone as your Savior and Lord (John 14:6); Here is the greatest news of all (Romans 10:9-10); What happens if a person is willing to repent of their sins and confess Christ?

H Is For Heaven - Heaven is a place where we will live with God forever (John 14:3); Eternal life begins now with Jesus (John 10:10)

H can also stand for how...How can a person have God's forgiveness, eternal life and Heaven? The Biblical answer is: repenting of your sins and trusting in Jesus as your Savior and Lord. Trust in what He did and not on your own works. Good works comes as a result of your faith in God, not in order to get to Heaven. You can't save yourself. Only Jesus and what He did for us (by dying on the cross and rising from the dead) can save us. Make the commitment for Christ today. Don't push it off. He will meet you where you are at in life. He will take care of the rest. He loves you and wants you to be with Him forever.

F.A.I.T.H. Presentation (Example Using Computerized Video Format)

Candas shares the Gospel message with Sherry using the F.A.I.T.H. formula. This video displays only an example of how to use the F.A.I.T.H. outline. There are many ways to begin discussing faith and how to end the conversation. The mainstay is the F.A.I.T.H. outline. I made this computerized video off of a free website, so it's not the best video because I am only an amateur in making videos and the computerized format is kind of funny at times because of the voices, but the point is to show FAITH.
