I disagree. There are many Lutherans and Presbyterians who are considered Evangelical Protestants. Some Methodists also. I am a member of the Reformed Church of America. We consider ourselves an evangelical Protestant denomination.

Well, I suppose the term "evangelical" is a loose term. But, whetever Kenneth says Reformed folks tend not to be evangelical whatever they may say. And the proof is right here on the forum. I am an evangelical and correspondingly these forums have heard the gospel from me several times at one point or another. The same is true of virtually all Evangelicals who commonly post here. Contrariwise, Kenneth has never once shared the gospel with anyone here, despite claiming to have a faith. He is like John Failure Kerry, claiming one thing, but believing something altogether different. Fancy this: If someone actually knows God, he will certainly be compelled to tell about Him. We are, after all, talking about knowledge and friendship with the Creator of All Reality. You will certainly get something out of a guy who knows God. It will in fact leap out of him. Godless people who simply deceive themselves about having faith will never share Christ because they can't share what they don't have. There are many people of the Reformed tradition who do share Christ, however. So, I suppose the term "Evangelical" is quite elastic.
