I'm interested in understanding which North American confessional Reformed/Presbyterian denominations hold to a position of "confessional membership." I'll use the definition provided by PB member Daniel Hyde as a guide to what I'm talking about:
Here's what I have so far:
Yes
ARBCA
CanRC
FRCNA
PRCA (Prot. Ref.)
RCUS
URCNA
No
APC (Associated Pres.)
ARP
CRC
CREC
EPC
ERQ
FCS
FCS (Continuing)
FPCS
OPC
PCA
Yet to be classified
APC (American Pres.)
BPC
CARPC
CRPC
ERPC
FPC
HNRC
KAPC
PRC (Pres. Ref.)
RPCGA
RPCNA
RPCUS
RPC (Hanover Pres.)
WPCUS
Please offer additions, corrections, etc. If "No," then what are the standards for membership? Thanks all.
Please stick to membership practices rather than restricted/closed/close communion practices. That'll probably be another thread.
"the practice that all members of the church assent to its teachings when seeking access to the table of the Lord and entrance into the church"
