Third A.S. Geyser Commemorative Lecture on 30 March 2017 : welcoming address by the moderator of the executive of the General Assembly of the Netherdutch Reformed Church of Africa

Abstract

With the wisdom of hindsight, I briefly want to reflect on some events in the past. Of course, there are many good things to say about the past, but given that the lecture of Dr Wim Dreyer is about Albert Geyser, it is also necessary to reflect on some regrettable actions of the Hervormde Kerk [Netherdutch Reformed Church] in this regard. The Hervormde Kerk is the Church I have known from childhood and the Church I love dearly in spite of her shortcomings.
