Kosin Presbyterian Church in Korea

The denomination was built upon the faith of martyrs who rejected shrine worship during the Japanese oppression.

In order to preserve the catholic Christian faith, The Kosin Presbyterian Church in Korea embraces the Bible as the principle scripture, but also employs Westminster Standards as the primary documents.

In efforts to preserve the Christian faith, movement of resistance to shrine worship was formed by the group of ministers who wanted to protect the Gospel.

When Korea was liberated on August 15, 1945, the remaining ministers who suffered from Japanese imprisonment were released.

Recognizing the state of Christianity in Korea, they decided to establish pure and conservative theological seminary built upon the foundation of reformed faith.

Founders of KoRyu Seminary and BupDong presbytery established later, on September 11, 1952, the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Korea (Kosin).

This consist a variety of offices, like General Secretary, publishing house, Department of Church Education, the Mission Training Institute.
