Helpful information regarding Presbyterians

[McWilliams]

I am reformed baptist and love my church and its teachings!
However, being reformed, I also enjoy many wonderful books and articles written by presbyterians and have had much confusion regarding the many various branches of such and all the 'who is what' of each branch!
Voila! I came across this chart and thought others might also benefit from knowing also!

This is a terribly depressing site. It shows how horribly schismatic some of us Reformed Christians are. We are both Reformed and Presbyterian and still we can not come together as the body of Christ.

The history is splinter, splinter, splinter, sub-splinter, sub-splinter, etc...

That was one of the most depressing sites I have ever looked at. What a witness we are to the world. What kind of do love we show to the world when we splinter and separate from one another over theological gnats. This site would be a great resource for Roman Catholic apologists. If I were an RC apologist I would ask "Why would you want to be with them? Where is their love of Christ, since they can not even get together and stay one in worship?"

It is so sad.

God help us.

Here's another little helpful chart:
http://www.history.pcusa.org/pres_hist/family_connections.html

I am currently PCA, and a founding member of this group. I am also quite familiar with others, especially in the American Southeast, including the OPC, ARP, & RPCUS, as well as history in the PCUS & RPCES - all primarily from the conservative trends in this groups. I'd be happy to help answer any questions you might have regarding them.
