The long-suffering people of Zimbabwe have endured yet another charade of free and fair elections. Many hopes have been shattered by the cruel results. What actually happened? Why are the people of Zimbabwe continuing to be subjected to such oppression? What hope is there for the future? How can we best minister in Zimbabwe and serve the Christians in this beleaguered nation? “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them—those who are mistreated—since you yourselves are in the body also.” Hebrews 13:3

Reformation Society: THE GREAT SIEGE OF MALTA
If you live near Cape Town, please join us this Thursday, 31^st August for supper at 18:00 and at 19:00 for an inspiring presentation on one of the greatest battles ever fought against all odds. For over 4 months in 1565, the courageous Knights of St John stood firm against the relentless assaults of an overwhelming force of Turkish jihadists. The great siege of Malta was one of the most pivotal battles in history. At stake was nothing less than the future of Europe (or Eurabia as some Turks were imagining). “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place of the Tabernacle of the Most High. God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn. The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.” Psalm 46:1-7

Compelling and Inspiring
Based as it is on the true storey of Tim Ballard and his underground railway initiative to rescue slaves from South and Central America, Sound of Freedom is a compelling dramatic film that shines an authentic light on one of the worst criminal horrors of our time: Human trafficking/modern day slavery and the child sex trafficking by paedophiles which so many in Hollywood, the mass media and government would rather ignore – evidently because, like their friends Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein, they are complicit in this colossal crime syndicate. You can view the trailer and learn more about this film on the official Angel Studios website: https://www.angel.com/watch/sound-of-freedom

Courageous Call to Action
Jim Caviezel and Mira Sorvino are to be commended for this courageous and most timely Expose of one the greatest scandals of our time. When the Film concluded the studio audience we were with erupted in applause.

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
