The Reformed Presbyterian Church (RPCNA) is founded upon the conviction that the Bible is the Word of God.
*We believe that the Bible is inspired and therefore without error. It is the only rule of our faith and lives.
*We believe that there is one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
*We believe that our first parents (Adam and Eve) and all who descended from them by ordinary generation are condemned as sinners before God who is holy.
*We believe that this includes the whole human race but not Jesus Christ who was supernaturally conceived in the womb of the virgin Mary.
*We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, in one person.
*We believe that Jesus Christ, the Eternal Son of God, is the only Redeemer of men by his perfectly righteous life and death on the cross for sinners.
*We believe that he rose from the grave and is coming again according to His promise.
*We believe that God is sovereign in personal salvation and in every area of life.
*Our full doctrinal beliefs are founded in the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Larger and Shorter Catechisms, and the Reformed Presbyterian Testimony.
*Our denomination traces its lineage to the Presbyterians of Scotland, also known as the Covenanters of Scotland. It had its visible birth in the Reformation Days in Scotland.
The name REFORMED PRESBYTERIAN is best understood when stated, REFORMED AND PRESBYTERIAN. We are Reformed or Calvinistic in doctrine, and Presbyterian in church government.
A few of our distinguishing practices: the exclusive use of the Psalms of the Bible in worship (sung a cappella), and an emphasis on Christ’s Kingly authority over every area of life.
