Presbyterian

Presbyterianism is a Reformed Protestant tradition that emphasizes the sovereignty of God, the authority of the Scriptures, and the necessity of grace through faith in Christ. The tradition originated in Scotland in the 6th century and was formalized in the 16th century Protestant Reformation, particularly influenced by John Calvin's Republic of Geneva. Presbyterian churches are governed by representative assemblies of elders, and the denomination has spread to various parts of the world, including North America, Australia, and New Zealand, with around 75 million Presbyterians worldwide.learn more on wikipedia
