Justin Peters is in South Africa to do seminars on the dangers of Word-of-Faith (WOF) teachers, otherwise also known as prosperity teachers, or name-it-and-claim-it teachers.

This seminar is aptly named, “A Call for Discernment.” He will be in South Africa until 17 June. His first seminar was on 1-2 June, which I attended. His schedule for South Africa can be viewed here.

During the seminar, Justin covers all the main heresies that these faith teachers proclaim. This was nothing new to me, as I did a blog series back in 2005 on these heretical preachers and their deadly doctrinal cocktails.

During the seminar, video and audio clips are presented to show what these false teachers teach. People like Benny Hinn, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, Jessie Duplantis, Joyce Meyer, Joel Osteen, Creflo Dollar and more.

When I did my series back in 2005, I bought books and audio tapes of these teachers so that I could accurately present their deadly poison. To see many of these people on video just makes it so much more real.

The whole time while Justin was teaching, he kept a gentle attitude concerning these false teachers, but remained resolute against their demonic teachings.

The first night, the church where the seminar was held, the Gereformeerde Kerk (Reformed Church) in Wapadrant, was packed full. There must’ve been a couple of hundred people in attendance. Yesterday morning, there were slightly less people in attendance.

It seemed to me that some people found this seminar revolutionary. I spoke to one guy who said that this seminar revolutionized his mind on these matters. I just wish more people would attend Justin’s seminars, since we need a new reformation in the church. A reformation that will turn the church back to the Bible. A reformation that would rid the church of these heresies and seeing these very heretical teachers come to a true Biblical salvation knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

For those who are unable to attend this seminar, Justin’s DVD series on this seminar is available in South Africa. At Augustine Bookroom (in the east of Pretoria), the DVD set is available for R115. They can be contacted via email at augustinebookroom@telkomsa.net. At Grace Media (shop@gracemedia.co.za), somewhere in Johannesburg, the DVD set goes for R120. Both of these stores also deliver.
