Firstlight - Changing Lives

More About Firstlight...

Firstlight Broadcasting Network was launched in New Zealand on the 17th September 2012 at 6pm.  The Firstlight channel broadcasts nationally 24/7 via the Freeview|HD (UHF terrestrial) network on Channel 26, via Freeview Satellite (also on Channel 26) and on SKY (Channel 206).  The official launch onto the satellite platform took place on Saturday 17th September 2016 at 6pm; at this same time Firstlight celebrated its fourth anniversary of bringing God's loving last day messages to the people of New Zealand.  Now Firstlight has been on air for over ten years! 

Firstlight is run by a team of dedicated volunteers whose mission is to proclaim God's love throughout New Zealand. Firstlight aims to broadcast the best selection of ground-breaking Christian programmes sourced from 3ABN, Amazing Facts, It Is Written and other international and local New Zealand sources as they become available.

While our programmes are based on Christian principles, we believe the programme topics will be of great interest to the general public and not just limited to a Christian audience.

Please continue to help us with your prayers and with your financial support.  We cannot keep your favourite Firstlight channel up on air without YOUR ongoing support!
Check out this week's Programme Schedule to see what is showing and what is coming up on Firstlight. 

We show a Christian film/documentary or an important interview on Saturday evenings at 7:30pm.  This is usually repeated at 12 noon on the Wednesday following.
See below for some of the highlights for the week ahead on Firstlight.


Saturday - 20 April 2024 - 7:30pm
DOCUMENTARY: CONVICTION - FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH

 


What was the Reformation about and why is it so important today? How does the Reformation help us understand end-time events? Conviction, filmed on location in Europe, brings us back into the Reformation to help us understand the events going on now. Walter Veith walks in the footsteps of the courageous men and women who turned the world upside down simply by standing for truth. The battle against truth continues to this day by the same forces that brought darkness to Europe in the Middle Ages. People need to hear the Three Angels’ messages now, before it’s forever too late.


Repeated on Monday 22 April at 4:30am, Wednesday 24 April at 12:00pm and Friday 26 April at 12:00am.
