The history of Presbyterianism in Ireland can be traced back to 1613. The first Non-Subscribing Presbytery was formed in 1725 and our most notable historical leader, Dr. Henry Montgomery (pictured left), took a leading part in the controversy in the 1820's that led to the formation of the Non-Subscribing Remonstrant Synod of Ulster. Our Church refuses to impose compulsory subscription to any man-made creeds in respect of a person's Christian faith. Our ethos is 'faith guided by reason and conscience' and we advocate liberal and tolerant Christianity.

The History of the Non-Subscribing Presbyterian Church of Ireland

A new website has been created and launched by Rev Dr David Steers, who is the Minister of our churches at Downpatrick, Clough and Ballee. He is also a respected historian within
the Non-Subscribing Presbyterian Church of Ireland.

Rev Steers presents a number of essays and articles on the historical development of our denomination within the context of Irish Presbyterianism. These articles trace the distinctive path of Non-Subscription: its roots, its advocates as well as defining moments in history when Non-Subscribers met with resistance from orthodox Presbyterians. The series of articles concludes with the consolidation of Non-Subscribing ideas and the formation of the denomination in 1910.

A permanent link to David Steers' website has been placed at the foot of the 'History' webpage within this denominational website. A visit to his website is highly recommended.
