It may be argued that there is a growing trend in modern evangelicalism to hide the heritage or particular denominational affiliation of a local church body from the general public. Some have even suggested that membership in the Reformed Presbyterian Church is a liability to the modern seeker. However, it is not necessary to hide this history in order to be effective in the local community; certainly there is no shame or liability in being reformed or Presbyterian. We believe that God will bless this heritage to us and use it to bring glory to His own name, and we cling to the promise that God will enlarge his church and call His saints to Himself.
Being reformed and Presbyterian is a doctrinal asset to our church; there are doctrines within the RPCNA making it a beautiful branch of Christ's church. The first benefit is being confessional in that our beliefs are obvious to any observer. This lends stability and transparency to a church. Confessional doctrinal standards also lend accountability, protection, and trust to ministers and members alike. Another asset is the old historical tradition of the church having numerous martyrs of the faith and being rooted in the very foundational history of the United States. The practical aspects of this church are well suited to minister to families and young people alike as they seek stability and useful teaching.
