What should I think about modern day Prophets? by Rudolph P. Boshoff

(5-Minute read).  Due to cultural identities and animistic believes prevailing in an Africa context, there seems to be an influx of Prophets and teachers that display all kinds of weird miracles and predictions. The qualification necessary to become an authoritative speaker appears to be Prophetic expressions to convince and convert a following that can contribute to the man of God. We hear a lot about alignment, and the man of God is the means to [...]

Easy Believism by Pastor Rudolph Boshoff

"Easy-believism" is one of "Easy Christianity's" popular teachings. Like other false teachings "Easy-believism" is a perversion of truth. The Bible teaches--as Martin Luther and the Reformation proclaimed--that we are made right with God by faith in Christ alone. We grant that salvation is by faith alone. The question is easy-faith or biblical faith!  Thanks to Dr Macarthur, we now know the answer to that question. The reason easy believism is so eminent in our Churches [...]

In the few years of being in full time Pastoral Ministry I have recognized five reasons people seem to lose their "sense of wonder". Now, this is not just a disappointment with the establishment but rather a deep-rooted experience of "lostness". [...]

Merchandising the Anointing by Pastor Rudolph Boshoff

(Average read: 3 Minutes). It was our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ that made a profound statement in Luke 12:14 when he said: “Be on your guard against all kinds of greed”. Recently a well-known preacher announced that God told Him to claim a new Learjet that he desired. Upon criticism and a hostile backlash from secular media, he calmly asserted that it is God's will for him to be blessed and expect more. In [...]

Beyond biblical objections to homosexuality by Pastor Rudolph Boshoff.

(10-minute read).  Recently there has been an ongoing discussion in the church globally as to the nature of same-sex attraction in the lives of individuals as well as the Church’s stance on homosexuality. In the Church, the discussion has been phrased and concluded with two perspectives: “Pro” homosexuality and “Anti” homosexuality. Being in a country where the right of same-sex partnerships was legalized since 2006 I have always maintained that the core discussion is not [...]

Church: “it’s not good for man to be alone….” by Pastor Rudolph Boshoff.

"Genesis 2:18 “It’s not good for man to be alone….” The Barna Research Group reports that in the United States about 10 million self-proclaimed, born-again Christians have not been to church in the last six months, apart from Christmas or Easter. (Barna defines "born-again" as those who say they have made a personal commitment to Jesus Christ that is still important today, and believe they will "go to heaven because I have confessed my sins [...]
