"Not just the men, but the women and the children too." 💀

I was genuinely researching Presbyterianism and it autocorrected to pride festival, this is a Godless world

“Most intellectual societies on earth”

If I had to say one thing good about Presbyterians They know a lot about theology

I died when you said “But not just the men but the women and children too” 😂

And then there's the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland, which is so conservative it doesn't even fit on the compass

I got saved in a Methodist church (that left the denomination to become Wesleyan), spent time in a Baptist church after, and just got back tit he US after a 6 month stay in Korea where I attended a reformed PCK (Presbyterian church of Korea) church. Now that I’m back home, I’m checking out a reformed PCA church

I'm sure this will be a completely fair and unbiased video....

Hello Zoomer, as a Catholic I want to say you taught me a lot about Reformed teaching and cleared up many misconceptions I had about it. I can now safely say that to me it is the Protestant denomination that makes the most sense!

> "the most successful and intellectual societies to ever exist"
> shows Scotland

It may have indirectly led to it because of the challenging of Rome's authority, but the Reformed definitely did NOT believe in societal equality or democracy. Calvin's ideal form of government was an oligarchy similar to Plato's, and he believed a democracy more perilous than a monarchy. And they all emphasize the importance of a distinction in social positions, also in manner of comportment and dress; that is, a king should never act like a commoner and a commoner never act like a king.

This was so helpful! The idea of predestination is still hard for me to grasp and is something I will continue researching and praying about, but I can definitely see the beauty of reformed theology and deeply appreciate Calvinist churches and their contributions

The far left PCUSA church I grew up in didn’t teach most of these points. As far as the images of Christ, they had a massive stained glass portrait of Him at the front of the sanctuary. I didn’t really learn about Calvinism (or the Bible, for that matter) until I moved to a PCA church.

My family and I became members of a local PCA church and my children were baptized, in part due to RZ's good content! Thanks RZ

This was incredibly helpful. I'm Reformed, but grew up Baptist. I'm still wrapping my head around some things. This helped!❤

Me, a Scotch-Irish, hearing "Calvinism produce the most successful and intellectual societies" than seeing a Scottish flag up there couldn't help push out a barking laugh. There is a lot of great stuff that has come out of Scotland(mostly soldiers, engineers, and John Locke), but I wouldn't be so bold to label Scotland in such words.

That being said, you did finally answer a question in history I've been puzzling over for long time. King Charles of England preferred Arminianism over Reformed Theology which led eventually to Puritans leading a civil war against him and eventually taking his head. I never saw anything in Arminianism that could explain his draw to that, but it was the rejection of holy saintly kings of reformed thought that convinced him that he should go the other way. Thanks for that.

Pure gold. Thank you. Prebyterian Church of Brazil.

As a Sydney anglican, I always feel left out of the party. We're evangelical and calvinist down here as well, you know! When you do a video on Anglicanism, can you mention GAFCON? It's like a group of biblical anglicans to protect the preaching of the word in anglican churches in opposition to the liberality of the CoE. (Global Anglican Futures CONference)
