History
The church in Europe had been corrupted by the middle ages. There were all sorts of teachings that were not in line with what God taught. God stirred up a distaste for what the church had become. Ancient manuscripts of the Bible started being studied again in their original languages. When scholars and priests began to read the Bible they realized something had gone wrong. People started wanting change. More and more started to read the Bible and desire a religion based on what God had said. This is where our theological roots are. Reformed Presbyterians have a long history. In the 1500s and 1600s Presbyterianism was the official religion of Scotland. When the kings decided they didn't like that they tried to stop the people from their worship and force them to do His will. They said no - He tried to kill them. Reformed Presbyterians maintained their church and beliefs. Eventually they immigrated to the United States where in 1774 the denomination was officially formed.
