FREE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF ULSTER In light of recent criticism the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster wishes to publicly reaffirm its opposition to the Roman Catholic service commonly termed ‘The Mass’. In this ecumenical age, the false notion is propagated that there is little difference between the Roman Catholic Mass and the simple Communion Service as practised by Protestants. However, there is a vast difference. The historic creeds of Protestant Churches underline this difference by referring to the Mass as ‘blasphemous’, ‘idolatry’ and ‘injurious to the work of Christ.’ The reason for these statements is that the Mass purports to be a continuation of the sacrifice of Christ. It leads sinners to trust in the priest, the Mass, and the church rather than in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Great High Priest who made the one perfect sacrifice for sins forever (Hebrews 10v12). His is the only sacrifice that can deliver from sin. Our objection to attendance at the Mass has nothing to do with bigotry or lack of respect for others as our critics often claim. During the funeral service of Princess Diana, the Chief Rabbi, on a point of religious principle, declined to enter the Cathedral and was praised for showing his respect by going as far as the entrance. Yet we and other Evangelical Protestants are often castigated and denigrated when, out of love and loyalty to our Saviour, we cannot countenance the ‘sacrifice of the Mass.’ Rev Ron Johnstone Moderator Rev Ian Brown Clerk

Free Presbyterian Church Early History Video | Watch Now! Shot in 1987, this video tells the exciting story of the growth of the Free Presbyterian Church during the first 25 years of its work. Born in Crossgar, Co. Down, in 1951, the FPC saw a remarkable period of revival blessing and growth in the 1960s and 70s, a growth that saw dozens of new churches commenced, a thriving missionary work established, and the expansion of the Church's witness to Canada, the U.S., and Australia.
