Bizweni Campus
Bizweni Community Church is organisationally autonomous. Through the years of its existence, however, the leadership have always believed in being accountable not only to the congregation, but also to other apostles and prophets. Like Paul in Galatians 1 and 2, who submitted his gospel (which he received from the Lord) to those who had been apostles before him, Kobus and the leadership with him have established strong relationships with other apostolic teams, both nationally as well as abroad.
Currently such relationships are in place with apostolic teams in South Africa, U.K., Brazil and the U.S.A., while other apostolic networking relationships continue with leaders in Argentina, Malaysia and Zimbabwe, with other more recent ones forming.
We believe that in God’s great Restoration Process underway in the earth, a growing sector of the Body of Christ finds itself in what could perhaps be the final stages of the Apostolic & Prophetic Reformation. Many theologians agree that the First Reformation took place under Martin Luther at around 1515. The second great Reformation took place in 1906 with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Azuza Street, and the Third Reformation is what is presently known as The Apostolic Reformation. The roots of this Reformation (which is described by a number of authors as greater than the First Reformation) can most likely be traced back to the revival that started in 1948 in North Battlefort, Canada. As it developed through the 50′s, 60′s and 70′s of the previous century, it was given various nametags in different countries. It is now generally known as the Apostolic Reformation.
We believe that this apostolic networking process that is rapidly underway across national and racial/ethnic/cultural boundaries will continue until it forms the Great Net that will be used by God in the End-Time ingathering, which will culminate in the Great Feast of Tabernacles before the return of King Jesus. We consider ourselves privileged to be included in God’s end time plan!
THE HOUSE OF GOD IN THE CITY
A final word of thanksgiving to the Lord regarding what He is doing in many metropolitan areas, including here in the Helderberg basin.
While it is always easier to build relationships with leaders and churches outside one’s local area, this tendency cannot be justified. And it is therefore with great joy to not only take note, but also to be a part of the growing unity that is taking place amongst church leaders here in the Basin. May this become a strong witness locally and beyond, as we become part of the answer to Jesus’ prayer in John 17:21 “that they may all be one”,”that the world may know that Thou didst send Me.”
Bizweni Community Church has a dynamic vision of not only impacting our local communities with the gospel, but also of helping and where necessary planting other groups and churches further afield.
