There doesn't seem to be any restraint on RCs stealing God's glory and giving it to a creature.

There doesn't seem to be any restraint on OPCs stealing God's glory and giving it to themselves.

How do Presbyterians give God's glory to themselves? Presbyterians know they didn't earn their salvation. God gave it freely, according to His mercy.

If Presbyterians boast, they boast of the Lord and what He has done in their lives.

"But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." -- Matthew 8:14
