“It is important to state this simply. Too many who go under the label of "Presbyterian" or "Reformed" doubt whether other evangelicals really believe the gospel because they don't speak it with a Presbyterian accent. Such was the case with one Presbyterian denomination in the 1950s that refused to join a council of churches because its membership included Baptists and others who believed that faith preceded regeneration, rather than the other way around. As a result, these Presbyterians concluded that their evangelical brothers believed a defective gospel and hence may not be brothers after all! Such an attitude is out of bounds. While we might have differing levels of fellowship and intimacy based on theological commonality, still we have to say that all who claim Jesus as Savior and Lord are our brothers and sisters in Christ. We also should want to say that we have a great body of truth in common with all those who are followers of our Lord.”

“the history of the PCA, which I will explore more fully in my larger historical argument, is a movement, by fits and starts, from an essentially conservative evangelical, or even fundamentalist,”
