• Presbyterian Church in America (PCA): 405,634 members (as of recent data/2025, across 1,959 congregations)
• Evangelical Presbyterian Church (EPC): Around 145,210 members (across roughly 625 churches)
• ECO: A Covenant Order of Evangelical Presbyterians (ECO): Around 129,765 to 130,000 members (across about 320–400 churches)
• Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC): Around 31,472 members (across roughly 282 congregations)

People go to heaven if they believe the gospel. They don’t go to heaven if they don’t believe the gospel. See how simple that is? Doesn’t matter if it’s protestant, catholic or non denom or whatever else. The gospel saves souls. Religious names, titles and denominations do not. If some of you spent as much time sharing the gospel as you do bashing other’s faith we could fill heaven up.

Perhaps, but certainly debatable and controversial. Not at all a debate topic that can be resolved on Political Talk because it is totally outside of the boundaries of what PT is and is not - PT is not a platform for theological debate.

Then you'd be going to the wrong Protestant church. Ours is NOTHING like that.

No one has more faith in the Gospel and the divine nature of Jesus Christ than Satan. Yet he is not in heaven

Good grief man. Learn your bible.

Im a PCA member. The EPC is pretty good except for letting individual churches rule on egalitarianism.
I know the PCA has its problem children, but not sure we needed another Presbyterian denomination.

He’s correct.
Believing that Jesus is the son of God does not save you. Making him the Lord of your life does. Although the first thing listed is a necessary requirement, it is not sufficient on its own.
Satan fulfills the first requirement, but not the second one.
Thus the book of James.

Yep. We have two EPC churches in our area. One has a female pastor and the other is more conservative than most PCA churches.

The Church needs purging. There are a lot of nefarious and demonic beings in it currently.
We're currently on our second demonic communist pope (that's two in a row!).

Not dying. Most Prots are in non-denom large churches now. Where they play rock music and the preacher wears jeans.

Once that type of people gained control of the Cardinals you are going to see a lot of bad popes.
