Oh, kinda like Southern Baptists who baptize by sprinkling?
So, archeologists can never just write about their findings?
I think they are a breakoff of what we today would consider the PCA (Presby Church of America) due to the PCA’s liberalism. J. Grashem Machen (sp?), renowned as an Ivy League expert in Greek (Princeton?) was among their founders, and also among those who came up with the 5 Fundamentals of the Christian faith, from which the word “fundamentalism” eventually derived.
Since the S. Baptists are primarily a calminian, adult anabaptistic denomination, they are really quite different from the OPC’s solidly calvinistic, reformed faith.
It was a very good book, meticulously researched, and full of architectural details about how these soaring monuments to God were built.
Oh what a beautiful church! My ancestors, on my dad’s side hail from that area of England. I would love to visit there some day - and this church would definitely be on my list of places to visit!
