Well our regulations come from the Scripture but are summarized within the Reformed Confession under the Chapters on Worship and the Sabbath Day..
Scriptural Elements of Worship Consist of Prayer, Reading the Hearing the Word of God, Preaching the Word of God, Baptism, Lord's Supper, Oaths and Vows, Singing Psalms, Decorum, and Gestures with the Occasional ones of Days of Humilation with Fasting, and Days of Thanksgiving.
I normally try to keep Covenant Theology Short when explaining.. We adhere to a Continuity of Old and New testament and that All Scripture is for the Christians Life. We adhere to the Moral Law summarized within the Ten Commandments and that Physical Israel have united with Spiritual Israel the Church as the people of God. God has one plan for his people. God Saved his people in the same way within both Covenants.. Oh and I'll throw in that there is no rapture....
Hope this helps, I know it is short.... I have a wormy little one kidding on my lap....
