WHO IS THE LILY OF THE VALLEY?
In this clip from the 1611 Fellowship, July 23, 2023, we discuss the popular hymn "Lily of the Valley." Should Christians sing this hymn?

VITAL Bible Doctrine corrupted for SO long! Love catching up on these previous messages 👍
You might find it interesting that the Matthew's Bible labels Salomons Ballet Chapter 2 Verse 1 as Christ speaking. Maybe that is where they got it? I have listened to you and John talk about the Song and have yet to really study it myself. My initial take on it was the whole thing seems out of place and strange.
Thank you for the content. I've never been raised or around churches so I'm unfamiliar with most hymns. I've been reading from Gadsby hymnal. I once had a dream where some black trickster creature knocked me off my horse (ambush), and it threw a dart at me on a wire (snare), the dart was a poisoned thorn, but the dart could only go so far, almost as close as my eyeball, I was screaming Jesus at the top of my lungs of course. The creature then left . God is amazing . Edit: and it was in a valley I just thought that was significant. The horse was dead and I remember the force of hitting the ground to this day
Very vivid dream.
We sang hymns in the old "United Church" but after going to a "charismatic" church it was Hellsong music. I know how much Reg loves them... Recently their most senior song writer left (was not really a believer according to his words) and said, he did not really believe any of it but he was sure Jesus was a good bloke. Now Reg wrote a book about cults I seem to recall... Reg had this channels material before and I watched this series of videos about the history of charasmaniacs (it made much sense) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaYQjteNpTY
A lot of their songs are what I refer to as "generic god songs;" that is to say they work for any god.
I remember listening to the video where you and John are discussing this. 'Lily of the Valley' is one of the first "hymns" I memorized. Thank you for this. I would love to hear more about the hymns topic Reg! I sing hymns with my children and it would be great to have a '1611 Doctrine Approved' hymnal wouldn't it? So far I have been sticking with hymns like 'Rock of Ages' 'Amazing Grace' and others tried and true.
