Scottish Presbyterian, Dutch and Swiss Reformed churches are merely distinguished by different confessions, and hold to the same set of beliefs.
Two other traditions have developed, however, "Reformed Baptist" and "Reformed Episcopal" denominations. They share the same Calvinist beliefs as the general Reformed Churches, but Reformed Baptists baptize adults and not infants as other Reformed Churches. They have the [[London Baptist Confession]]. Reformed Episcopals hold to an [[Episcopal polity|Episcopal]] form of Church government (by bishops) and holds steadfastly to the [[Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion]].
