Presbyterianism

Presbyterianism is the religion of thoughtful Christians who prefer to have things done decently and in order.

The Anglican Church is the major Protestant denomination in the UK.

The second major one is Presbyterianism.

There are quite a few more than two types of Presbyterians. The two main Presbyterian denominations in the United States (Northern and Southern) were joined in 1983 to become the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Other Presbyterian churches include the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, the Presbyterian Church of America, and the Orthodox Presbyterian Church.

By being baptised and by practicing the positive and unchanging essentials for living a Christian life which are based on humility, prayer, observing God's law and Church regulations and going to mass. Religion alone can't save anyone. Only trusting Christ to forgive you of your sin can save you. If you have a bible, look up Romans 3:10, Romans 6:23, and Romans 10:13. They show that 1) you are a sinner 2) that you need a savior and 3) that if you pray and for forgiveness, and put your faith in Christ to save you, that you can be saved. No religion can save you. Repentance leads to Salvation.

First Presbyterian Church of Dailey Ridge was created in 1853.

Presbyterians do not have an office that is the equivalent of "court leader." The body that performs the function similar to that of court leader is the PJC, "Permanent Judicial Commission," made up of elected elders and a moderator. Presbyterian offices include deacon, elder, presbyter and commissioner. The ruling committee of each congregation is called the Session, which has a Moderator and Clerk. Similarly, each Presbytery, Synod and the General assembly have a Stated Clerk and Moderator.

A Presbyterian lie would be any untrue statement presented by someone claiming to represent one of the Presbyterian denominations. In the same sense, a Baptist or Roman Catholic or Lutheran or Episcopalian or Mormon lie would be any untrue statement presented by persons claiming to represent one of those denominations. No single religious group can be more or less identified with lies (false statements) than any other religious group.

It could accurately be argued that the Presbyterian denominations are BOTH gaining and losing members. While young people often fall away from the church when they leave home, many of these same young adults return as they have children and establish families. Many local congregations in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) happily welcome couples who are not formally married or who are in homosexual relationships. As the Baby Boomer generation ages, they, too, tend to find comfortable communities in the Presbyterian Churches where they can remain active in their later years.

Presbyterians use the expression, "Hanging of the Greens," to denote decorating the church sanctuary for the celebration of Christmas. In many churches this takes place at the beginning of Advent (the season of preparation preceding Christmas Eve,) while other congregations use distinctly different liturgical colors and decorations for Advent than for Christmas. The term originates with the evergreen wreaths and roping typically hung about the chancel, nave and narthex.

The Presbyterian denominations have systems of representative government. Each local congregation elects "elders" who serve on the session, which is the ruling committee with the authority for that congregation. Each session elects "presbyters" to represent that congregation at the local governing level, which is the Presbytery. Presbyteries, in turn, elect representatives to regional bodies known as Synods, as well as representatives to the National General Assembly which meets every two years. All of these governing bodies, session, Presbytery, Synod and General Assembly, are in charge of the Presbyterian Church.

No, there is no altar in Presbyterian worship. An altar is a place of sacrifice, and in Presbyterian theology, the sacrificial Crucifixion of Jesus Christ occurred once for all time and is not repeated in worship services. The focus of Presbyterian worship is the pulpit, which represents the proclamation of the Word of God, along with the Table, where the Lord's Supper is celebrated in remembrance of the Last Supper of Jesus Christ.

Presbyterian Covenant theology accepts infants for baptism and inclusion in church membership on the basis of the faith of the parents and family. In this theology, children of the church are included in God's promise of salvation (Genesis 7:1; Acts 16:31.) Consequently, all baptised children are welcome to receive communion in the Church, based on their parent's discretion of the child's understanding and readiness in the faith.

No, Presbyterians do not pay any membership fee or required payment of any kind. Presbyterians support the church by voluntary offerings according to their personal financial abilities and the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Presbyterianism originated in Scotland, at the time of the Scottish Reformation.

James Henley Thornwell believed that by obeying their masters, slaves would fulfill their spiritual duty as outlined in the Bible and would consequently secure their own salvation. He viewed slavery as a God-ordained institution and believed that obedience and loyalty to masters would bring slaves closer to God.
