Since 2003 he has devoted himself increasingly to teaching and preaching as well as writing scriptures and books. He is also known for his lectures on the charismatic movement, end-time developments in Christianity, and biblical topics.

In November 2002 he started the ESRA writing service, the aim of which is to disseminate teaching and educational literature that is true to the Bible.

criticism

Rudolf Ebertshäuser questions many other Christians and movements based on the Bible. This applies to Catholic, ecumenical, evangelical, charismatic and social groups. He is accused of equating the diversity of the Bible with his own interpretation and of condemning other people and positions relatively quickly without thoroughly knowing, considering and appreciating their arguments, contexts and cultures. He recorded and documented his arguments in numerous publications.
