Hi! I'm new here and I really wanted to have a community of fellow reformed Christians

[Honey Morante]

I live in the Philippines and in the city where I live, there aren't any reformed churches. It's quite sad really because I have to watch my reformed church online instead (my church was in a different country where I lived). I tried attending churches here as well as the bible study groups but unfortunately, I just couldn't handle hearing false teachings anymore. Do you think I should keep trying to look for churches with sound teaching - or should I just be content with attending a reformed church online? But what I'm looking for also is a good community where I can grow .. But I'm giving up honestly because everybody here is either pentecostal or catholic. I have nothing
against other denominations but I just miss being around people who believe the same doctrines as I do .. you know? I hope my explanation made sense ahah

There aren't many Reformed Presbyterians on this platform. There is the Puritan Board.

The Puritan Board represents micro Presbyterianism and doesn't represent Reformed theology at large.

True, but there is a better chance for her to meet other like-minded people there than this place.

Wow thank you so much for the links! I'll try and check them out. There were a few near me that claim that they're reformed but from their facebook posts, they don't seem to be ... So yeah. I hope some of them are legit

I requested that they ban me to help me break the habit of posting there. It was a waste of time.

It isn't for everyone, I suppose.

Even though I'm a stanch Reformed minded Calvinist, I can never do "online church" again (2020) I rather be stuck at an Arminian church for the rest of my life and be in physical fellowship with my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ who disagree with my doctrines than do online church again. That is just me, because I went back to some of my old sins when I did online church for a few months in 2020.

Yes, keep looking won't hurt. Which Reformed Faith? Lutheran, Baptist, etc.. It's great to see young people in pursue of the true Faith. I believe for now on-line is fine. Because you don't want to go a church that isn't Reformed? Just keep reading, studying, and growing in the Knowledge of the Lord. Pray to find a church in your area, who knows maybe this is your calling to open one in that area.

Hello sister. Come out of confusion. Revelation chapter 18.
Get away from false brethren immediately.
Traditions of men is idols. God's 10 commandments. Dont have any idols or gods before Me.
Ephesians chapter 6 . Christian people need gospel armour on. It's knowledge and wisdom of God's word. Many hirelings are withholding God's truth.

Satan as antichrist will come near future. The gospel armour is needed. Its spirtual war. It's words, ideas and concepts. Get the picture.

These hirelings are stripping off the armour off Christian people. Many Christians are biblically illiterate.

Revelation chapter 18 . Don't be in the group that's in confusion. Many people will worship antichrist near future and end up in sheol. It's holding place for the spirtualty dead or wicked.
Ephesians chapter 6 is the answer.
Get away from false brethren.

I recommend shepherds chapel on YouTube. Pastor Dennis murray. He teaches sound doctrine.
How do I know??
Those with holy spirit will never go against God's word.
I wish you all the best.
