The Presbyterian Church in the United States
The Presbyterian Church began with the teachings of John Calvin brought to the United States by advocates of the Reformation Despite the religion’s experience of early schisms, it has finally established itself as one of the mainstream Protestant Churches of the United States, and has ever since emphasized the importance of the Scriptures, spiritual election and the active role of Christians in conversion
Historical Origins
Although the Presbyterian Church may have been secretly instituted by the immigrant Protestants of America in the 1630s, it was only in 1706 that the Presbytery of Philadelphia was formally established by seven Presbyterian ministers
