Pamphlets
We print pamphlets written by our members and those from other Reformed churches of like-minded faith. They include a wide range of topics from doctrines to church history and practical Christian living. These pamphlets serve to promote knowledge of the true God as expressed in the Reformed faith. |

KJV vs NIV
By Prof (then Rev) Ronald Cammenga
"The matter of which Bible translation is to be accepted by and used among the people of God is a matter of highest priority. For centuries the King James Version was the undisputed version of choice among English-speaking Christians."
In this article, the history of the NIV is first evaluated in depth. Next, the author criticizes the NIV for its poor translation which has resulted in the weakening of various doctrines. This includes the deity of Christ, predestination, justification and divorce and marriage. A clear, precise and faithful translation is needed for the proper understanding of God's revelation. Lastly, the author explains why the KJV should be retained as the preferred translation.
Read to find out more about these Bible translations and why we continue to use the KJV.

Christianizing the World by Prof David Engelsma
|
|
 |
| From the RFPA website:
This book is a critique of Abraham Kuyper’s cultural theory of a common grace of God and of the grandiose mission of this grace, and of those who confess the theory and evidently intend to promote it so that it accomplishes the end Kuyper claimed. The book exposes Kuyper’s biblical basis for his theory and its practical mission.
The first and main part of the book is a much-expanded version of the public lecture given in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in 2014 under the auspices of the evangelism society of Southwest Protestant Reformed Church in Wyoming, Michigan. The second part of the book consists of questions raised by the audience at the conclusion of the lecture and of the answers by the speaker at the lecture.

Session (Consistory) of CERC
|
|
| 9th August, Singapore's National Day, is a public holiday. This year, our church gathered at MacRitchie Nature Reserve on that day for a time of hiking and fellowship. |

|
| This August, our monthly youth group outing was at a relatively unknown Tampines Eco Green, tucked away in the east of Singapore. Situated in the middle of housing estates, this park was a serene refuge for us busy Singaporeans. With various natural habitats such as open grasslands, freshwater wetlands and a secondary rainforest, this outing turned out to be a pleasantly refreshing experience. |
