The PCA is a conservative Christian denomination that was founded in 1973 by conservative Presbyterians who were dissatisfied with the direction of the mainline Presbyterian Church (USA).
The PCA is the second-largest Presbyterian denomination in the United States, with over 1.7 million members and 10,000 churches.
The PCA is a confessional denomination, which means that it adheres to a set of theological standards. The PCA’s standards are based on the Westminster Confession of Faith, a Reformed confession of faith that was adopted in 1646.
The PCA is a presbyterian denomination, which means that it is governed by a system of councils. The highest council in the PCA is the General Assembly, which meets every year to set policy and make decisions for the denomination.
The PCA is a missions-minded denomination, and it is involved in a wide range of ministries around the world. The PCA also supports a number of educational institutions, including Covenant College and Covenant Seminary.
Here are some of the key beliefs of the PCA:
- The Bible is the inspired word of God and the supreme authority for all matters of faith and practice.
- Jesus Christ is the Son of God and the only Savior of the world.
- Salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
- Baptism is a believer’s immersion in water in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- The Lord’s Supper is a symbolic observance of the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
- The local church is the primary expression of the body of Christ.
- Mission to all nations is the Great Commission of the church.
