| | | List of Pro-FV Churches?
Okay, I know of the CREC churches, but can we start a list of known Pro-FV churches in the OPC and PCA and other denominations?
This is mainly out of curiosity to see how wide spread the doctrine is, I guess.

That is an interesting question. Does anyone know of any Federal Visionists outside the United States and Canada?

I am in Houston and am pretty sure that none of the PCA churches in our area would be considered pro-FV. I know that some have remained silent on the issue, but none actively teach the doctrine.
Here is one... Horne and Meyer's church
Providence Reformed Presbyterian Church (PCA), St. Louis, Missouri.

I don't like the idea of making a list of "pro-FV" churches. Who decides what defines 'pro"?
I have heard some condemned because they did not object with enough enthusiasm to the latest bad guy. Criticise a doctrine all you want. Refute it with the scripture and confessions. Rebuke those that you have authority/responsibility over/for. By all means argue with conviction and passion, but to make up a list of sympathizers. I say no. Bad idea.

Cool, I can understand that. Like I said, it was more out of curiosity than anything.

But it is not to be confused with our sister church: Trinity Reformed Baptist Church, also in Kirkland. It's too bad the usurpers took the same name.

There is a FV sympathetic church here in the Greater Wichita area. I don't know the name but I think it is CREC affiliated.

It might be the one I listed, but I am pretty sure the one I listed is Pro-FV not JUST sympathetic. Don't quote me on it though.

Is there a list of pro-FV congregations that also pray imprecatory prayers (curses) against churches and others who criticize them? I am not making this up. It happens.

There are many and/or most PCA churches in the St. Louis area who at least sympathetic to FV. I know of one in particular that is not sympathetic (Heritage Presbyterian Church).

| Interesting. To my knowledge, the OPC has laid down the gauntlet stating that any minister who supported FV would be brought up on charges, and defrocked if found guilty.
Am I correct on this?
