Dear Friends

Greetings in the precious Name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

From the Frontline: Ethical and Edifying Journalism
You can tune in to the latest From the Frontline podcast on https://fromthefrontline.podbean.com/: https://fromthefrontline.podbean.com/e/from-the-frontline-episode-268-ethical-and-edifying-journalism/

Join me as I interview investigative journalist, Gerda Potgieter, editor of Devoted magazine and author of a landmark book analysing unethical journalism: a Journey to the Truth: the case of KwaSizabantu Mission. What are the principles for ethical journalism? So much of what we read in the media is sordid, scandalous, sensational and superficial. What about the good news? Yes, there is much evil in the world, but where sin increased, God’s grace increased much more. Instead of only reporting on what the devil and his disciples are doing, surely Christian journalists can also report on what God is accomplishing, in spite of evil. There must be positive and inspiring testimonies to report on. How can we more uplifting and edifying in our communications? “brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.” Philippians 4:8-9

Reformation Society: a Journey to the Truth: the case of KwaSizabantu Mission
Last week, Thursday 20 July we had a presentation by author Gerda Potgieter who has completed a masterpiece of investigative journalism: a Journey to the Truth: the case of KwaSizabantu Mission. Responding to the sensational scandal mongering of News 24, Gerda has unravelled the web of deceit and intrigue behind the extraordinary malicious campaign against this exemplary mission in KwaZulu Natal. It reads like a detective novel, it is a real page turner, I could not put it down. Absolutely incredible. The truth behind the rumours and accusations needs to be known. Ultimately this book, although beginning with the negative attacks, is positive, uplifting and inspiring. I think it needs to be required reading for every journalist. Exposing shoddy and superficial scandal rags and demonstrating real investigative journalism, doing the hard work necessary to get to the facts and present the truth. It is not often that one has the opportunity to unravel complex intrigues in order to get to understand the reality behind the headlines. Gerda has done us all a great service in producing this landmark book. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32

Upcoming Events:
Reformation Society: Lies We Have All Believed
If you live near Cape Town, please join us this Thursday, the 27 July for supper at 18:00 on and at 19:00 for a presentation exposing many of the popular Deceptions which have been propagated in our lifetime. We are warned that satan “…will go out to deceive the nations…” Revelation 20:8. The Bible continually warns us: “lest satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11. “But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 11:3. In the Book of Revelation we are told that at the end God will send an Angel to bind satan “so that he should deceive the nations no more…” Revelation 20:3. We are taught that: “…satan who deceives the whole world…” Revelation 12:9. Plainly satan is deceiving nations today. “And war broke out in Heaven… that serpent of old, called the devil and satan who deceives the whole world…” Revelation 12:7

Help The Reformation Society promote Reformation and Revival throughout Africa.
Since 2006 the Reformation society has been conducting regular, every Thursday night, Reformation society meetings in Cape Town, holding Reformation seminars and conferences, promoting Reformation day services and events, including Reformation Art and Essay competitions, Reformation variety concerts and home education events. The Reformation society has published the Greatest Century of Reformation book (including an updated and expanded edition), Reforming our Families, the Power of Prayer Handbook, Reformation 500 hymnbook and the Reformation 500 Coalition on Revival FIRE Manual donating thousands of these books to Bible colleges, Missions, ministries and Christian universities.
The Reformation Society also published the 95 Theses for Reformation Today, translated into German, French, Dutch and Afrikaans and launched the Reformation 500 Back to the Bible movement, which led to Reformation 500 events in Zambia, United States of America, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, culminating in Wittenberg October 2017. In the lead up to the Zwingli 500, marking the initiation of expository preaching (1st January 1519) we preached through every book of the Bible, publishing a series of the Bible in a nutshell in a popular local Christian magazine in South Africa and publishing the Old Testament Survey and New Testament Survey books. We also held Biblical Preaching Workshops and helped publish the Biblical Preaching Handbook. Our Reformation500 facebook page has also received a wide reach and many engagements as we promote Reformation doctrines and history and work for a fresh back to the Bible Reformation in churches, communities and throughout the continent of Africa.
If you support this vision and work, please help us with the finances need to keep promoting Reformation Today through our public meetings, seminars, conferences and events and through publications, radio and TV interviews and programmes and through our Libraries for Pastors and Textbooks for Teachers programmes. https://www.givesendgo.com/reformation
