  • Saving The Local Church And Pastor From Extinction. Series

    Contributed by Jan Oosthuizen on Aug 18, 2019
     | 3,487 views

    More and more people are leaving local institutional churches and pick and choose their spiritual diet on social media. Evangelism, and belonging to a local body of believers is on the increasing decline!

    When the smallest cell in the body is under attack, it brings the demise of the whole. For as long as I can remember, there has always been a tension between the local church pastor and the staff of parachurch organisations. Parachurch organisasions work outside and across denominations to ...read more

    Why every believer needs to be an active participant in a local church

    As a pastor, I’m constantly amazed at the excuses people have for not going to church.

  • Universality Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 11, 2003
    based on 23 ratings
     | 13,387 views

    Thanks to Constantine’s move, the church gradually began to think of its universality as power rather than as an evangelical mandate. Christ is to be lord of our political life, our cultural life, our everyday life -- every aspect.

    Christ is lord of all! What a bold statement! Maybe even an arrogant statement! Lord of all? Do we believe that? It was said of one preacher that “for tender minds he served up half a Christ.” Behind that lie two realities – first, that many of us don’t want the full gospel, we’d rather just ...read more
