REFORMATION 500 to REMOTEST REGIONS

26/9/2017

​Dear Friends
 
Greetings in the precious Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
“Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:19
Reformation 500 Mission to Europe
By the time you receive this, I will be flying overseas to conduct four weeks of Reformation 500 conferences, services and missions to six countries. This is planned to culminate in the Reformation 500 Global Church Council in Wittenberg, Germany. This will be my 8th Mission so far, this year.
​The Greatest Century of Reformation
Our new, revised and expanded edition of The Greatest Century of Reformation has returned from the printers. Its 288 pages are packed with over 200 historic pictures and maps, 20 chapters and 16 appendices. The Reformation 500 Audio MP3, Data and DVD four-disc boxset has also been completed, including 14 films, 23 audio lectures, 13 PowerPoint presentations and a PDF of The Greatest Century of Reformation book. This boxset’s lectures, chapters, pictures and presentations represent 12 years of research and work to collect, compile, systematise and shape these character studies on 16 great Reformers of the 16th Century, as well as doctrines, events and personalities who shaped the Greatest Century of Reformation.
 
Mission to Europe
The vision for Reformation 500 grew out of my Mission to Europe in 2005. In five weeks, I ministered in 11 countries, as far afield as Northern Ireland, Poland and Romania. Highlights were visiting and ministering in Wittenberg, Germany and Zürich and Geneva in Switzerland. It was then that the vision of mobilising Reformation 500 events to focus on these historic milestones developed. Later that year, I discussed with Dr. R. C. Sproul, the need for a Reformation Study Bible and the need for special conferences, leading up to 31 October 2017. Standing before the Reformation monuments in Geneva it also struck me that we were only four years away from the 500th anniversary of the birth of John Calvin and thus the Calvin 500 Celebrations were born. I met with and wrote to many Reformed leaders I knew, including Dr. Joel Beeke, Dr. Gary de Mar, Dr. Jay Grimstead, Dr. Jerry Newcombe, Rev. Ian Paisley and many others and received favourable responses for both the Calvin 500 and Reformation 500 initiatives. In 2009, I conducted Calvin 500 Seminars and Conferences throughout the United States of America, Europe, South Africa and Zambia.
95 Theses for Reformation Today
Five years ago, we published 95 Theses for Reformation Today. These have now been translated into German, French, Afrikaans, Dutch and Spanish. These can be viewed, downloaded and printed in leaflet form from our www.ReformationSA.org website.
 
Reformation 500 Facebook
The Reformation 500 Facebook page has, over the last five years, challenged and inspired, with thousands of people engaged on social media on any given week.
​Africa Reformation Overland Missions
By God’s grace, Frontline Missionaries have completed Reformation Overland Missions to Namibia, Tanzania, Lesotho, Swaziland, Mozambique, Malawi and Zambia. Reformation and Revival Conferences have been held at churches, Bible colleges and Christian universities. Reformation 500 Digital Libraries, on discs and SD cards, have been entrusted to pastors, evangelists and missionaries working throughout Africa, as far afield as Ghana and Somalia. Bibles and books have been delivered to persecuted Christians in South Sudan and in the Nuba Mountains of Islamic Sudan. More countries are still to be reached by our Mission team in the next months.
 
Audio, PowerPoint and Video Resources Available Online
Many of my lectures delivered at Reformation 500 celebrations and conferences, so far this year, have been uploaded on our SermonAudio.com page, on our Video Gallery on www.FrontlineMissionSA.org and PowerPoint presentations that I have designed, have been added to our Slideshare. These include Martin Luther – Captive to the Word, Ten Reformers Who Changed the World, Anne Askew - A Daughter of the Reformation, John Calvin and the French Huguenots, The Reformation in England, The Reformation in Switzerland and more are being added in the next month.
 
Upcoming Events
Please pray for: the Transforming Power of the Word of God - Reformation 500 Celebration to be held at Valley Church in San Jose, California, 29 Sep – 1 Oct. An Overview of Reformation History in Belgium, 7 - 8 October. The Reformation and Revival Conference in Holland, 13 – 15 October. The Reformation 500 Church Council in Wittenberg, Germany, 16 – 21 October. Details and contacts should be available through the Events page on the www.frontlinemissionsa.org website.
 
Back to the Bible
On Monday, 30 October, we will be hosting a Reformation 500 Conference at the Dutch Reformed Church in Franschhoek, South Africa. Rev. Erlo Stegen, the Founder of KwaSizabantu Mission, will be our special guest speaker. Our IT Department plans to live stream this event. In the evening, we also plan to screen the 1953 classic Martin Luther film in the Dutch Reformed Church Hall in Franschhoek.
 
Reformation 500 Celebration
On Reformation 500 Day, Tuesday, 31 October, those of us near Cape Town will be gathering for a Reformation 500 Celebration service at the Huguenot Monument in Franschhoek. Winners of the Reformation 500 Art and Essay Competition will be announced at the Celebration service, which will be preceded by a Guided Tour of the Huguenot Museum. A leaflet advertising these events can be downloaded HERE

International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted
12 November 2017 is the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them - those who are mistreated - since you yourselves are in the body also.” Hebrews 13:3. Visit www.idop-africa.org for resources to mobilise your congregation or community to prayer and action. There is a 3 minute video that you can show during notice time to your congregation, to mobilise prayer and action on behalf of our brothers and sisters in Christ who are suffering violent persecution at this time. For over 20 years, IDOP has sought to mobilise churches worldwide to pray for and with the persecuted Church on the second Sunday of November. You will also find articles, sermons, Bible studies, audios and PowerPoints on Persecution in the Bible, Persecution in History, Learning from the Persecuted, Serving the Persecuted, Praying for Justice and updates from the field.
 
Serving the Persecuted
For over 35 years, Frontline Fellowship has been focussed on serving persecuted Christians, ministering in restricted access areas. Some of our books which we have produced to help mobilise prayer and action on behalf of persecuted Christians, include: Faith Under Fire in Sudan, In the Killing Fields of Mozambique, Holocaust in Rwanda, Going Through – Even if the Door is Closed and Going On.
 
“And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honoured, all the members rejoice with it. Now you are the Body of Christ, and members individually.” 1 Corinthians 12:26-27
 
Thank you for all your prayers, encouragement and support.
 
May God continue to be your joy and strength.
 
Yours for Reformation and Revival

"And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 
teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.
.”
 Matthew 28: 18-20
