Part 1: Saving Souls & Contending Against Heresies is a False Dichotomy as Both are Needed
The Public Seminar by George Ong on Joseph Prince’s Teachings
on 28 Feb 2026 (Saturday) & 7 Mar 2026 (Saturday)
as announced on 30 Sep 2025 in my last Article
will be held at The Goh Ewe Kheng Auditorium at Eagles Center,
166 Bukit Merah Central #04-3531, S150166.
As I have explained, members of New Creation Church
are most welcome to attend,
especially Joseph Prince and his Pastors.
If Joseph Prince claims to be preaching the true gospel,
then he and his Pastors should have no fear
to dialogue and ‘debate’ with me in the seminar.
Only if Joseph Prince preaches the false gospel,
would he be fearful to meet me
as what he preaches would be resoundingly exposed.
Why?
Because Joseph Prince has simply no defence at all
against the plenty of videos about what he said
that I have marshalled as concrete evidence against him,
and would unveil for the whole world to see.
Let me reiterate that if Joseph Prince wants me to meet him
at his home ground at Star Vista in March next year, 2026,
I will be more than happy to oblige.
I want to correct something that is unhelpful
that is spread among Christians
and even Pastors in Singapore
– it is that contending against the heresies of Joseph Prince
has nothing to do with saving souls,
and that we should stop what we are doing
and start saving souls.
Who says fighting for truth against heresies
has nothing to do with saving souls?
I have met with those whom I had initially thought
were mature believers,
but by the way they reasoned things out,
I then discovered they were actually rather naive
in their thinking.
I have people who say to me:
“George, please don’t spend so much time
debunking Joseph Prince’s teachings;
you ought to spend your time saving souls.”
Such a comment can only come from those
who are simplistic in their thinking
and shallow in their theology.
Contending for truth against false teachers
and their false doctrines
is every bit related to saving souls.
In a teaching session, Voddie Baucham said:

“Secondly, coming from that,
now let’s get down in verse 3 (Jude) more closely,
‘Beloved, although I was eager to write you
about our common salvation,
I found it necessary to write appealing to you
to contend for the faith
that was once for all delivered to the saints.’
Here’s the second thing,
there is this false dichotomy
that is often presented;
what we need to be about is the salvation of souls,
not all these disagreements.
Because if our passion is for souls,
then we can let all the rest of that stuff go
and we can just go and pursue the salvation of souls,
because nothing’s more important
than the salvation of souls.
He (Jude) obliterates the false dichotomy.
There is no either-or there.
There is no either we unite in our passion for souls
or we quibble about issues.
There is no either-or there.
The apostle would argue
that because of our desire for souls,
we must contend for the purity of the gospel.
It is our desire for souls
that compels us to contend for the purity of the gospel.
But if what we believe
is a tainted gospel and a perverted gospel
than we are calling into question
the very concept of salvation itself.
There is no either-or dichotomy here.
We must be passionate about souls,
and we must be passionate about contending for truth.
We must be passionate about contending for truth
because we are passionate about souls.”
George Ong’s comments:
Contending for truth
against false teachers and their false doctrines
is every bit related to saving souls,
which Voddie Baucham
has so convincingly and passionately argued for.
The argument
– that instead of focusing on doctrine,
one should focus on saving souls
– is being simplistic.
It is not either-or,
but rather,
both must be passionately striven for.
Paul was a perfect example of one
who preached the gospel passionately to save souls,
yet at the same time,
he fought the heretics so consummately
that he was prepared to curse them. (Gal 1:6-10)
It is clear that in Paul’s life and ministry,
he never sees this issue as either-or,
but both preaching the gospel
and contending against heretics
must be done passionately.
Doctrine is as important as saving souls
– given the fact that
since the Pseudo-grace gospel
preached by Joseph Prince is false,
many souls that are supposedly saved
are not saved at all.
How can souls be truly saved
if a false gospel is preached?
Many are too shortsighted to see that
the one who is fighting heretics like Joseph Prince,
is in effect saving souls
by preventing the heaven-bound
from being deceived by his heretical false gospel
and becoming hell-bound.
While many save souls by preaching to the unsaved
to deliver them from hell,
others do it by warning the saved
to prevent them from falling back into it.
Saving souls is not only to be defined
as delivering a lost sheep from hell
but also, in deterring a saved sheep
from returning to it.
Is it any wonder
that there are so many goats in the church
that have to be reconverted into sheep
because of the preaching of an incomplete
justification-only-without-sanctification,
and a no-repentance
false gospel by Joseph Prince?
The great and frightening deception is that
there are many sheep in New Creation Church
who are actually goats in sheep’s clothing
without them even realising it. (Matt 25:31-46)
Hence, saving souls is also to be seen as
shaking the many goats in the church
from their presumption that they are heaven-bound,
in order that they may become the few sheep
that will finally enter in.” (Matt 7:13-14, Matt 25:31-46)
Finally, what must arrest our attention is that
can the resources that are spent
on saving souls from hell be justifiable,
if, through our negligence, nonchalance, and apathy,
many of these saved souls
who are being seduced
by the Pseudo-grace doctrine of Joseph Prince
are falling back to it?
What’s the use of spending tons of money and energy
on saving the multitudes of souls from hell,
when little or no effort is devoted to preventing them
from being enticed
by the Pseudo-grace doctrine of Joseph Prince
and returning to it?
If the battle for truth is lost,
the battle for souls would also be lost
– as the false gospel of Joseph Prince
would only lead them to nowhere else,
except to hell.
George Ong said:
“If truth is spoken without grace,
an earthly reprimand is to be expected,
but if grace is preached without truth,
eternal ruin will be the consequence.”
While we rejoice with Churches and Christians
for their godly and timely efforts at winning souls,
why are there so few who do the same to us
by encouraging us in our battle
against Joseph Prince’s heresies?
In fact, many, including Pastors,
pour cold water and even oppose our efforts
to expose Joseph Prince as a heretic.
Something is not quite right,
but seriously and scripturally wrong, here!
Let me reiterate what Voddie Baucham said:
Please click here to view the video:
“The apostle would argue
that because of our desire for souls,
we must contend for the purity of the gospel.
It is our desire for souls
that compels us to contend for the purity of the gospel.
But if what we believe
is a tainted gospel and a perverted gospel
than we are calling into question
the very concept of salvation itself.
There is no either-or dichotomy here.
We must be passionate about souls,
and we must be passionate about contending for truth.
We must be passionate about contending for truth
because we are passionate about souls.”
Because we have created a false dichotomy between
winning souls and contending against heresies,
resulting in the total neglect
of contending against Joseph Prince’s heretical gospel,
that have resulted in its worldwide spread,
we are now laden with this indictment
we ourselves have created
that is best encapsulated in my original quote:
“Singapore, instead of being known
as the Antioch of Asia,
is now more popularly and shamefully known
as the world’s number one exporter
of the Joseph Prince’s Pseudo-Grace Heresy.”
(George Ong)
Can you now see
that our neglect to contend for the truth
against Joseph Prince’s heresies
has resulted in the sabotage of our very aim
to be the Antioch of Asia to win souls?
David Pawson had sadly talked about the spread
of Joseph Prince’s Pseudo-Grace Heresy
from Singapore and to the world.
In a teaching session in Singapore,
David Pawson said:
Please click here to view the video:
“And frankly, I’m here in Singapore
because of one wrong meaning of that word (grace),
because two years I was in South Africa,
and every church I went to was talking about grace
but in a rather unusual way,
and a way that was dangerous,
a way that was mixing a lot of truth
with some poisonous error.
It is that mixture which can so easily deceive people.
And I said to them after a bit,
“Where did you all get this teaching from?
The simple answer was ‘Singapore.’”
But your major problem in Singapore
is not irresistible force,
it’s unconditional forgiveness (Pseudo-grace).
And I have to say that
this third understanding of grace (Pseudo-grace),
which can be found in America,
is spreading throughout the world
from this city (of Singapore).
And I came across it all over South Africa
when I was there 2 years ago.
And I said, ‘Where did you get all this from?’
And they said, ‘Singapore.’
I think I’ve said enough for you to recognise this error
when you come across it.
It is widespread. It (Pseudo-grace) originated in America,
but it’s got a huge hold here in Singapore,
and is spreading through the internet
throughout the world.
And everywhere I go to preach, I come across it.”
What David Pawson had said
pointed to the relevance of what I (George Ong) said:
“Singapore, instead of being known
as the Antioch of Asia,
is now more popularly and shamefully known
as the world’s number one exporter
of the Joseph Prince’s Pseudo-Grace Heresy.”
What David Pawson had said brings to mind
that because no concrete action
was taken by the Singapore Church Leadership
to warn and stop Joseph Prince
from spreading his heresies in Singapore,
tragically, they have now engulfed the world.
When Joseph Prince’s heresies have spread from Singapore
to infect the many nations of the world,
not a single word of responsibility or apology
has come from the Singapore Church Leadership!
Not a single piece of action has been taken
to address the issue so far
– after how long?
– after 20 over years!
Can you beat that?
What is worse is the Singapore Church Leadership
– NCCS and APCCS
is still sitting on the Joseph Prince issue
as if it is a matter that is relatively unimportant
that doesn’t require urgent action
– as more and more sheep are being deceived by the day
by the heresies of Joseph Prince
to their destruction.
What a sad day for Singapore Christianity!
What an indictment
against the National Leadership of the Singapore Church
– NCCS and APCCS!
To the spiritual leaders of NCCS and APCCS,
it’s about time that you wake up from your deep slumber.
It’s about time for you to sound the alarm
clearly, loudly and publicly
to warn the church about Joseph Prince’s heresies.
Keeping quiet to remain respectable and stay out of trouble
is no longer the option,
as the eternity of souls is at stake.
Finally, let me be bold as to say
that unless and until the Singapore Church Leadership
– NCCS and APCCS and the Singapore Pastors get this right
– acknowledge and settle their sinful neglect
about the Joseph Prince issue
and act against his heresies,
Singapore may not realise her dream
to be the Antioch of Asia.
Part 2: Ex New Creation Church Member, Peter Ho’s Appeal to NCCS & APCCS to take action against the Wolf, Joseph Prince, because it is an Urgent Matter of Life & Death as Millions of Souls hang in the balance
Peter Ho’s Open Letter to the National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS) & the Alliance of Pentecostal & Charismatic Churches of Singapore (APCCS)
Please click here to view the video:
Please see the Appendix
for the verbatim speech of Peter Ho.
George Ong’s Response to Peter Ho’s Message
to NCCS and APCCS:
In the likes of what Peter Ho said to NCCS and APCCS,
let me quote what Jeffrey Teo,
another Ex New Creation Church member wrote
in his testimony which was featured on my Website:
“It’s time to stand up
to contend against Joseph Prince’s heretical gospel
that is leading the masses to hell.
I can no longer sit on the fence
as this is a heaven and hell issue.
After coming out of Joseph Prince’s false gospel,
I must be responsible to warn others.
… May I rouse you to do your part
in exposing Joseph Prince, the wolf
and to warn others of such a deceptive doctrine
that could lead people to the eternal fires of hell.”
If Peter Ho and Jeffrey Teo, both ordinary laymen,
are seized with a passion, and have the courage
to warn others of Joseph Prince’s heresies
which could lead people to the lake of fire,
why have NCCS and APCCS,
who are the shepherds of God’s flock,
and who are theologically trained
to tell a heretic from a true preacher of the gospel
continued to maintain their strange silence?
For the National Spiritual Leaders of Singapore
– NCCS and APCCS
to insist on keeping silent because of self-preservation,
when droves of souls are being led to hell
by Joseph Prince’s heresies,
is not only inexcusable but also intolerable and abominable.
Do these spiritual leaders in NCCS and APCCS have a conscience
that one day they will stand before God
to answer for their cowardice
by not calling Joseph Prince out as a wolf
and thus, seeing the multitudes of souls
who are being destroyed in hell?

Part 3: The difference between Charlie Kirk’s and Joseph Prince’s Conception of Discipleship is the difference between obeying Christ’s command in the Great Commission and rebelling against it
In a sermon, Charlie Kirk said:
Please click here to view the video:
“(Lady said): I don’t agree with evangelization,
really, to be honest.
(Charlie Kirk): You don’t believe in Christianity,
go and make disciples of all nations.
It was literally the last thing that Christ said.”
In a sermon, Joseph Prince said:
Please click here to view the video:
“And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
What are you?
You are not a disciple anymore.
The disciples are now called Christians.
So, He (Holy Spirit) renamed the disciples
for the first time in Acts again.
He (Holy Spirit) named them what?
The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
So which is more important?
The disciples are now,
the names are changed to Christians.
We should be calling each other sons of God or Christian.”
While Charlie Kirk correctly sees Discipleship
as representing Christianity,
and evangelization is similar to making disciples,
Joseph Prince makes the utterly false statement
that the word “Christians” has replaced the word “disciples”,
and that believers are now not to be called disciples
but Christians.
By doing that, Joseph Prince is literally rebelling against
one of the core doctrines of Christ
– discipleship or making disciples.
Anyone who dares to preach against discipleship,
the heartbeat of Christ
has got to be a heretic.
I am sure that NCCS and APCCS are certainly aware of this.
Then, why have they chosen to be silent,
and why aren’t they calling Joseph Prince out as a heretic
when Christ’s main doctrine and heartbeat
is under attack?
Is it not clear to NCCS and APCCS
that anyone, such as Joseph Prince,
who dares to attack and demean disciple-making
which is commanded by the Lord Jesus, who is God Himself,
in the Great Commission,
has got to be a heretic who is of an Antichrist spirit,
and he is to be denounced in the strongest possible terms?

Appendix
Peter Ho’s Verbatim Speech:
Appeal to the National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS) and Alliance of Pentecostal & Charismatic Churches of Singapore (APCCS):
1. Why am I writing to NCCS & APCCS?
I will first start with my indication of trust and appeal to you.
To my beloved leaders, pastors, reverend, bishop,
in (NCCS) and (APCCS),
I consider all of you as the highly honoured and respected ones
because you are called to be the guardian of the truth
(and the doctrine of Christ as you are a Christian too).
I believe that you are called by God because you are obviously
in a position who can decide, give counsel, and do something
that no one else could do in the past, but now,
only you can consider doing it,
especially in such a time like ours?
Joseph Prince always says that the world is full of darkness
but his church will shine brighter and brighter
because his teaching is full of light.
However, I come with a heavy heart to the Council
because I see darkness all around us
when the darkness is actually spreading from his church,
New Creation Church.
How can there be light when the light of Christ
is craftily, intentionally, and constantly shielded
by a thick layer of heresies and hypocrisy
where the doctrine of Christ is totally ignored or corrupted?
Instead, I see distress and an urgency to break loose
from that thick darkness.
With the same degree of distress and urgency,
many of my Ex-New Creation Church friends
are now coming to you for your counsel and reply too.
I know it is not the usual or normal procedure
to approach the Council when all churches
are really functioning as a church
and give their own counsel to their own members.
But when the church has no biblical sound doctrine,
constantly entertains people with heresies,
or preaches pseudo-grace that has no integrity
in the preaching of God’s words,
we need advice from the Council?
2. My painful journey
It is a painful journey for me
and many of my Ex-New Creation Church friends
to come to the full realisation
that Joseph Prince is a heretic and a false teacher
when we have trusted him as our pastor or shepherd,
and when we thought he would really care
for our spiritual well-being;
but it turns out that his heresies would bring destruction
and bankruptcy to us both spiritually and financially
as testified recently by Simon Ho,
who is also an Ex-New Creation Church member too.
It is not easy for many who have experienced bankruptcies,
legal proceedings, financial failures, marriage failures,
health issues, mental breakdowns, and spiritual attacks
to come out and warn others against Joseph Prince’s heresies.
I am still in the process of painful recovery and restoration
after many years of believing and trusting
in a wrong shepherd, or a wolf instead.
I believe that all my Ex-New Creation Church friends
are now suffering and would have their own story to tell too,
but I will highlight my own first at this moment.
I am married with a beloved wife.
We started to attend New Creation Church regularly in 1999.
After about six months,
I sensed that something was very wrong.
Although I could not clearly pinpoint any serious heresy
at that time,
I knew that Joseph Prince had no genuine love for the Lord
and no love for the words of the Lord.
I tried to explain it to my wife,
but every time it would end up
in a heated argument or even a quarrel.
I believe, after that, she would secretly contact
the church leaders or pastors for counsel or advice
and she would always come back
with very legitimate answers or questions like:
“You criticize Joseph Prince, but how many souls have you saved?” or “If my legs are not healed, it’s because of you.
Can you bring me to Pastor Henry Yeo’s healing service or at least take the Holy Communion with me to encourage my faith?”
I became so tired of this psychological game
played by New Creation Church between me and my wife
that I had to say to myself “enough is enough”
and, since that day in 2000 onwards,
I have never discussed anything with her about Joseph Prince,
New Creation Church matters, or spiritual things.
Somehow, we have come to an unspoken understanding
that I will not question her about her involvement
and giving to New Creation Church,
giving to purchase Joseph Prince’s books,
giving to subscribe to his apps,
giving to purchase his Holy Communion elements,
and she will not force me to join her in any church events too.
Although I allowed her to use our house
for the CareGroup meetings
and I still attended the worship services from 2000 to 2019
(until Covid 2019 which was really a great relief to me),
I practically closed myself from all the physical
and social communion with the people in New Creation Church.
However, unknown to New Creation Church leaders
and even to Joseph Prince himself,
this has given me a long time (enough time)
to observe everything not as an outsider;
but as a member inside the church.
I notice that most of the members still worship Joseph Prince
as their great ‘shepherd’ and the ‘anointed’ one
who can never be wrong,
but I would consider him as a heretic, rebel, and liar
who never follows or obeys the doctrine of Christ.
3. Urgent matter of life and death
Rev George Ong and several pastors
have written many open letters to the Council
regarding the heresies of Joseph Prince.
So, I am not going to repeat what is already said
and known publicly in both their letters
and the public website which has already provided
ample proofs, testimonies, comments, and video clips
relating to Joseph Prince’s heresies.
I hope that now you can see more clearly
why we can no longer ignore it
when God has revealed many things
that could be critical and crucial
to our church community now.
Like Mordecai in the Bible,
Rev George Ong is not someone in power
or any mega church pastor.
He is just a man who is leading a small minority of people
(mainly the Ex-New Creation Church people
and my friends who receive the same revelation as him too);
however, we are aware that the beloved church of God
who consists of many of our brethren and loved ones
are going to be deceived and led to destruction
by an ‘evil character’ who has no doctrine, no law,
and no love of Christ.
To many church leaders, the decision to do nothing
or the delay to do anything might not cost much to them;
but to us, it is an urgent matter of life and death
when millions of people including our loved ones
are being led astray without the light of Christ
or doctrine of Christ.
4. My appeal
My question to the Council now is,
Is what I encounter in New Creation Church
something good, normal, or healthy in a church community
in your opinion?
If your answer is “good and normal”,
I have come to the wrong Council;
however, if you think that we need to do something,
we hope that you could help us, and take immediate action
to do what is necessary.”
