Global Reformation Conference
Is Revival the desire of your heart? Do you long to see God bless your country? Are you concerned about the state of both church and society at this time? For those who desire Reformation and Revival, the Coalition on Revival is organising a Global Reformation Conference that you will be able to participate in, without the need for travel and expenses. The Global Reformation Conference (15-20 July) will be broadcast and livestreamed using online platforms to broadcast every day from Monday, 15 to Saturday, 20 July 2019. Join us as we discuss the historic events which have led up to this international initiative as well as what will be involved in this online programme. How can we be involved? What resources have been developed to equip and empower us to work for Biblical Reformation in our congregations and communities?
“Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You?”

From the Frontline-Episode 73-Learning from the Persecuted

There is so much that we can learn from the Persecuted Church. Yes, they need our prayers and support. We are commanded:
“Remember the prisoners as if chained with them…”
Hebrews 13:3
and
“in as much as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.”
Matthew 25:40.
But, we also need to remember these precious brothers and sisters in Christ, who have gone through the fires of tribulation, have much to teach us. What are some of the lessons we can learn from Christians who have endured years of persecution?
“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

Dramatic Developments in Sudan
After 30 years of brutal dictatorship, former “president,” Omar Al Bashir, appeared for the first time in public on Sunday, escorted from maximum-security prison in Khartoum to the prosecutor’s office, where he was read charges for “possessing foreign currency and acquiring suspicious and illicit wealth.” Protestors greeted the looming court case with skepticism as corruption is the least of dictator Al Bashir’s crimes. Protestors continued to demand that he be handed over to the International Criminal Court (ICC) where he is wanted on crimes of genocide. We will attempt to shed some light on the confusing reports coming out of Sudan and present updates on what God is doing in this restricted access area in the 10/40 window in the Muslim Middle East.
“…Cush will submit herself to God.”

The Influence of Eschatology on Missions
The 19th century was the greatest century for missionary advance. The 20th century was the worst century of persecution. The role of Eschatology in Missions is foundational. The Father of Modern Missions, William Carey and the best friend Africa ever had, Dr. David Livingstone; indeed most of the missionaries of the 19th century were inspired by an eschatology of victory, The Puritan Hope, the conviction that God who gave the Great Commission would enable it to be fulfilled. This inspired the missionary pioneers of the 1800’s to endure incredible hardships and make sacrifices that transformed the world. The great missionary hymns – From Greenland’s Icy Mountains and Jesus Shall Reign, testify to the optimistic eschatology of victory which inspired the 19th century missionary pioneers to:
“Expect great things from God! Attempt great things for God!”

Faith Missions on the Front Line
In 1865, Hudson Taylor launched the China Inland Mission, the first Interdenominational Faith Mission. Since then, many missions have followed Hudson Taylor’s principles for a Faith Mission: that there would be no fund raising, missionaries would receive no salaries, but trust in the Lord to supply their needs and no debts would be incurred.
“God's work, done God's way, will not lack God's supply.” “God's servant is God's responsibility.”
“The battle is the Lord’s and He will conquer. We may fail, do fail continually, but He never fails.”

Turning the Tide - EU Elections and Brexit
There is much to report back on, the Back to the Bible for Reformation and Revival Conference in Cape Town, the dramatic re-alignment of political forces in the European Union Elections, the growing rise of resistance to the globalist New World Order agenda and the rising tide of movements for de-centralisation, secession and independence. The stunning success of the newly formed Brexit party in Great Britain which won more votes than any other party in the UK. The clear rejection of politics-as-usual and the establishment. What are some of the lessons we can learn from these momentous developments? How should we as Christians respond? How best can we continue to work for Reformation and pray for Revival? What can we practically do to make disciples of all nations, teaching obedience to all things that the Lord has commanded?
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.”
Galatians 5:1

In the 10/40 Window
By God's grace, four Frontline Missionaries have safely returned from a massive Bible and school-textbook distribution mission behind enemy lines, in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. Emma will be interviewing Frontline missionaries, John and Abrie, on what they experienced and learned during this month of ministry in one of the most desperately needy and remote areas in the 10/40 Window.
“How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who proclaims peace, who brings glad tidings of good things, who proclaims Salvation…”

Hunger for Revival
Is Revival the desire of your heart? Are you concerned about the state of both church and society at this time? Do you long to see God bless our churches, communities, country and continent? The Reformation Society was launched in 2005 to lay solid foundations for Biblical Reformation and Spiritual Revival. We have several important Coalition on Revival events coming up soon.

Prayer is Not a Substitute for Biblical Action
All too often we come across the attitude of “All we can do is pray!” However, prayer is meant to be a foundation for obedient action, not an excuse for disobedience and inactivity. “All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.” We are commanded to
“be doers of the Word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.”
James 1:22.
“Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.”
James 4:17

The Crisis that Confronts Us
In one week South Africa heads to the polls for national elections. It is a volatile and violent time with daily strikes, riots, vandalism, burning of trains, buses, police stations, destruction of property, wild fires and attacks on farmers. What is at stake? Where do the different parties stand on the issues confronting us? Where is South Africa headed? How reliable are the elections in South Africa? How independent is the IEC (Independent Electoral Commission)? What are the dangers ahead? What opportunities are there for Christian work and witness in this volatile and violent time? Is there hope for the future? How best can we pray? What can we practically do to work for Reformation and Revival in the strategic missionary-sending country of South Africa?
“So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it…”
Ezekiel 22:30
