He explains that, from Matthew 5:13-16, we are called to also be the salt and light of the world, preserving those who are perishing and warning those who roam in darkness of the imminent Danger about them (02:16-07:42). In a world which desires peace where there is none, we must not be worriers but warriors for Christ (07:43-13:42). Griffin proceeds to read the story of Gideon from Judges 7, outlining two aspects of the victory of the 300. Firstly, God wanted to make sure His people gave Him the glory for the victory instead of themselves, and secondly, God wanted to increase His people's faith in Him (13:43-15:38). We cannot win the world by our own power, but we must fully depend on the power of the Holy Spirit (15:39-20:50). He ends his time in prayer, (20:51-21:51) and the service ends with a choral closing (21:52-22:17).
