I am pleased to announce that the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) voted today to restore the Heidelberg Catechism to its original text (thereby correcting several unauthorized insertions and theologically unwarranted changes which were made in 1963)!  The vote was 60% to 39%.  This starts a process which will also require review by a committee, concurrence by the next General Assembly, and approval by the Presbyteries.  I think today’s vote by the General Assembly is a wonderful step which will restore integrity and authenticity to this foundational text in our Book of Confessions.
