Les Miserables could give the impression that one is justified by doing all the good things that Jean Valjean did. One might think that Valjean is redeemed by his acts of kindness and mercy towards others. Redemption does not come through good works; redemption is evidenced through good works. Valjean lived a life helping his fellow man because of his surrender to God in the first act. Let us discover the Gospel in Les Miiserables. Message by Adam Meredith at The Red Door Community Church.
