The '''Orthodox Presbyterian Church''' is a conservative American [[Reformed Churches|Reformed Denomination]]. It was founded in 1936 by conservative members (e.g., [[John Gresham Machen]]) of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America (PCUSA) who were strongly opposed to the pervasive Modernist theology during the 1930s. The Church attempts to preserve historic [[Calvinism]] within a [[Presbyterian]] structure. It is, however, more [[liberal]] than the [[Bible Presbyterian Church]], who left the OPC in 1937.
