Evangelical Reformed Assemblies of God(Also called the Reformed Assemblies, or ERAG.) is an evangelical reformed denomination in Lyngaard, Arcadia, and the Libertines. The denomination was formed in 1813 with the merger of the Episcopal Reformed Church and the Assemblies of God. The Episcopal Reformed Church was a major branch of the reformed movement particularly in Northeast Arcadia while the Assemblies of God formed out of a conservatives branch of the Beaconer church. The two churches formally merged with the Confrence of Gotham in 1814 under the leadership of Paul Keyser and Hugh Abbot.
Initially a small church localized in the southern Lyngaard and Northeast Arcadia, the church saw growth during the Modernist Controversy in in the early 20th Century. The Reformed Assemblies took a staunchly fundementalist approach to said controversy and absorbed many conservative members of Denominations which shifted to a more modernist theology. Today the Reformed Church has over 3 million members globally and has a growth rate of 2.7% yearly according to membership statistics.
