Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you for visiting this page dedicated to the gathering of the 75th General Synod on August 11-16, 2011. It is my privilege and challenge to “introduce” you to our Synod in these few words.
The Bible Presbyterian Church strives to exhibit and rejoice in a living, warm-hearted Calvinism. We are Presbyterian and confessional, affirming the Westminster Standards to be a good summary of Scripture teaching and acting accordingly in matters of ordination and polity. The Scriptures provide our only “rule of faith and practice,” so we love the exegetical preaching of “the whole counsel of God” that proclaims the finished work of Jesus’ blood sacrifice on the cross. Having received mercy and experienced the love of Christ in our own hearts, we are compelled by the love of Christ to be zealous for doing the companion works of biblical, worldwide evangelism and biblical, restorative discipline. Finally, we are committed to the principle of Sola Scriptura in every aspect of life in the church, home, and society. Because this is so, we oppose and speak out against wickedness in government and society, apostasy in churches and men, and rebellion against God wherever it appears, while seeking a biblical ecumenicity with all visible branches of the Christian Church that endeavor to remain faithful to the Word of God, but especially to other Reformed churches and ministries.
These things, and so much more, are the Bible Presbyterian Church, General Synod. Come and share this vision and joyous service with us!
The Rev. Edwin Robinson Moderator, 74rd General Synod
