Heritage Reformed Church RCUS

Heritage Reformed Church RCUS Welcome to Our Church PageYou are cordially invited to join us each Lord's Day for worship and fellowship

Heritage Reformed Church is a part of the Covenant East Classis of the Reformed Church in the U.S. a member church of the North American Presbyterian and Reformed Council (NAPARC). Heritage Reformed Church was established in Honesdale, PA in the summer of 2003 at the instigation of members of the Reformed Church in the United States living in north-east, Pennsylvania. Heritage Reformed Church trac

es its ecclesiastical history to the early beginnings of the RCUS in Colonial Pennsylvania in 1745 and prior to that to the formation of early congregations in the Philadelphia region in 1720. The doctrinal standards of Heritage Reformed Church are those of the Sixteenth Century Protestant Reformation (hence the name "Reformed") and consist of the Heidelberg Catechism, the Belgic Confession of Faith and the Canons of Dordt known world-wide as "The Three Forms of Unity." As a confessional church we are always ready to "give an answer for the hope that is within us." Our confessional standards ensure unity in matters of essential doctrine. Heritage Reformed Church engages in traditional worship; teaches that man is saved by grace, not works; supports the right-to-life of unborn infants; expects fathers to exercise headship in the home; teaches six-day creation, and promotes Christian education. We seek to consistently preach the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and to apply biblical principles to the issues confronting our families, churches, communities and nation, making no apologies for our lack of trendiness or "political correctness.

The RCUS publishes a weekly devotional on the Heidelberg called "Body
and Soul." If you are interested in subscribing, you may follow the link
below.

The Heidelberg Catechism begins with one of the most important questions ever asked: What is your only comfort in life and in death? Its answer reminds us of the great truth we all need to hear again and again—that we are not our own, but belong, body and soul, to our faithful Savior Jesus Christ....

The Work of Christ, The Response of Men (3:21-31)

“But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭21‬-‭31‬ ‭

Heidelberg Catechism - Questions 57-58 (Lord's Day 22)
Heidelberg Catechism
Q57: What comfort do you receive from the "resurrection of the body"?
A: That not only my soul after this life shall be immediately taken up to Christ its Head, but also that this my body, raised by the power of Christ, shall be reunited with my soul, and made like the glorious body of Christ
Q58: What comfort do you receive from the article "life everlasting"?
A: That, inasmuch as I now feel in my heart the beginning of eternal joy, I shall after this life possess complete blessedness, such as eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has entered into the heart of man, therein to praise God forever.

None Righteous, Not Even One (3: 9-20)

“What then? Are we better than they? Not at all. For we have previously charged both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin. As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one; There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one.” “Their throat is an open tomb; With their tongues they have practiced deceit”; “The poison of asps is under their lips”; “Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.” “Their feet are swift to shed blood; Destruction and misery are in their ways; And the way of peace they have not known.” “There is no fear of God before their eyes.” Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭9‬-‭20‬ ‭

“Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to him, “Why have you done this?” For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the Lord, because he had told them. Then they said to him, “What shall we do to you that the sea may be calm for us?”—for the sea was growing more tempestuous. And he said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea; then the sea will become calm for you. For I know that this great tempest is because of me.” Nevertheless the men rowed hard to return to land, but they could not, for the sea continued to grow more tempestuous against them. Therefore they cried out to the Lord and said, “We pray, O Lord, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O Lord, have done as it pleased You.” So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, and the sea ceased from its raging. Then the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice to the Lord and took vows.”

“The Lord hurled a great wind on the sea and there was a great storm on the sea so that the ship was about to break up. Then the sailors became afraid and every man cried to his god, and they threw the cargo which was in the ship into the sea to lighten it for them. But Jonah had gone below into the hold of the ship, lain down and fallen sound asleep. So the captain approached him and said, “How is it that you are sleeping? Get up, call on your god. Perhaps your god will be concerned about us so that we will not perish.” Each man said to his mate, “Come, let us cast lots so we may learn on whose account this calamity has struck us.” So they cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah. Then they said to him, “Tell us, now! On whose account has this calamity struck us? What is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?” He said to them, “I am a Hebrew, and I fear the Lord God of heaven who made the sea and the dry land.””
‭‭Jonah‬ ‭1‬:‭4‬-‭9‬ ‭
