Mission and Program Overview
Mission
The purpose of reformed believers publishing is to promote, defend, and develop the reformed faith as revealed in the word of god, expressed in the three forms of unity, with emphasis on the truths of absolute sovereignty of god in salvation, particular grace, and the unconditional covenant. Specifically, we will publish a monthly magazine, sword and shield, and other reformed material to give theological and antithetical witness to the reformed church world and beyond by broadcasting reformed truth to the people of god wherever they are found and expose and condemn all lies repugnant to this truth.
