Authority to Separate Itself from Error and Unbelief
Excerpted from Dr. Robert L. Reymond, A New Systematic Theology of the Christian Faith (Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1998), 890-1. I will add the marks of a true church to Dr. Reymond’s reasons for separation from a church. Article 29 of the 1561 Belgic Confession of Faith says these about what a true church must be: The…

Reformed Pinoy Rules and Membership
So the Admins may approve an applicant who does not fully adhere to any of these confessions, but are sincerely desiring to learn, and perhaps travel down the path to Reformed doctrine, worship and life. This has included people from different evangelical backgrounds in the process of being Reformed.

Conform, Reform, or Leave?
The task of pointing a mainline denomination back to the historic Protestant Reformed faith is practically a mission of changing the course of the planets. You may be able to change your “local” church, but what about the whole denomination? I have no knowledge of any denomination who has gone down into the pit of…

A Better Paradise Restored
A river of humanity will defy gravity to worship in this lofty temple in heaven, “all the nations shall flow to it, and many peoples shall come, and say: ‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord’†(Isaiah 2:2-3).

Dinuguan: Yum-yum, But Wait…
The first three prohibitions of the Jerusalem Council concern food eaten at the table. Why then is sexual immorality included in this list of prohibitions, when all the others in the list pertain to table fellowship between Jews and Gentiles?
