About This Tool
The Presbyterian church is one of the three major schools of Protestantism. It was born in the Swiss Reformation Movement in the 16th century and spread in France, Holland, Scotland, and North America. Based on Calvin’s religious thought, Presbyterians adopted the Westminster Declaration of Faith, created in 1647, as the standard dogma of the church. Presbyterian played an important role in the development of the world church of Christ, the innovation of theology and etiquette, and the communication between Catholicism and Protestantism.
Over the centuries, as the Presbyterian Church has spread throughout the world, many celebrities have become influential and devout Presbyterians. The random tool lists 29 famous people who were Presbyterians that you did not know.
