The national anthem of South Africa is a prayer and that national anthem is sung in five different languages. So in South Africa when evangelizing the black color of the flag is used to point out sin, red is used to illustrate the blood of Jesus Christ, green and blue symbolize heaven, white is the peace that Christ gives us yes, then it is almost like a book without words that is often used to evangelize people, they are visual aids.
Why does the flag have these colors? When the Europeans came to South Africa they actually came because their primary purpose was to tell the people, the natives about Jesus, but when they got to South Africa they realized how rich that continent was.
