About


Welcome!
I am a Confessional Reformed Christian. After becoming a Christian in 1976 and falling out of church fellowship for a number of years, the LORD renewed my new birth in Christ in 1992. He then soon had  me involved with local Christian activists as a member of the Illinois Christian Coalition (1994)  and then as a county chapter leader in 1995  (the same  year I was elected to the Waterloo School Board).

I joined the Constitution Party of  Illinois and served as an officer from May 2001 until my resignation in January 2005. During this period of time I was very active politically as a grass root's leader and organizer.

For several years I wrote an "Opinion Shaper" column for our local newspaper and many of those articles are now archived at my personal blog.

I also spent many years ministering to the lost and speaking on behalf of the preborn at the local abortuaries. I am now a volunteer with Christians for Personhood .

But my greatest love is for the truths of Scripture and sharing them with others. I love to study the works of the Reformers and learn about our Christian Heritage, such as the legacy left to us by the noble Scottish Covenanters, to whom this blog is dedicated.

I hope and pray to spend the rest of  my life pressing the Crown Rights of Jesus Christ, who is King of all the nations.

My sincere hope is that the good Lord will use this blog to help equip the saints and point others to Jesus Christ. Thank you for your interest and may the good Lord bless you as you seek His Kingdom!

For Christ's Crown & Covenant,

Angela Somers Wittman




All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations.

~ Psalm 22: 27, 28 KJV

Scottish Covenanters Index

Editor's Note: I am pleasantly surprised to discover this index page for "Scottish Covenanters" at ancestry.com . I hope you will find it helpful. For Christ's Crown & Covenant, Angela Somers-Wittman Posted at ancestry: About Scottish Covenanters Index In the 17th century conflict arose between Church and State in Scotland. Those who remained steadfast in their Presbyterian beliefs and refused to take an oath to the king saying that he was the head of the church became known as Covenanters. They believed that Christ was the head of the church and were punished for this belief. Many were forced to pay the ultimate price for this by laying down their lives. The Royalists and Dragoons, who were seeking their lives, chased the Covenanters from glen to glen, especially in the Lowlands. If anyone was found hiding them, they suffered imprisonment and/or death as well. This punishment was not just reserved for the strong and healthy -- children and the eld

Original Covenanter Eschatology: Historicist and Postmillennial

Changing Eschatology in the RPCNA (Part 1) By Robert Kelbe - Posted at Gentle Reformation This is the first in a two-part series on the change in eschatology within the RPCNA. The first part will explore the postmillenialism prevalent until the middle of the 20th century. The second part will explore the change to amillenialism under the influence of J. G. Vos and the Blue Banner. Introduction: The 1807 Testimony In 1807, the Reformed Presbyterian Church, now the RPCNA, published its first Testimony called Reformation Principles Exhibited which had been approved by the Presbytery the year before. Roughly following the chapter divisions of the Westminster Confession of Faith, this original testimony of the RPCNA adds a final chapter on “Testimony-Bearing”. The last paragraph of that last chapter states that The church may not recede from a more clear and particular testimony to a more general and evasive one but the witnesses must proceed in finishing their testimony rendering it more p

The Killing Times of 1685: Ridpath’s List of Covenanters Executed in the Fields

From Jardine's Book of Martyrs : The 500th post... In 1693, George Ridpath , one of the first Scottish journalists, published a list of Covenanters who had been summarily executed in the fields. Ridpath’s list was copied from the list found in Alexander Shields’ A Short Memorial in 1690. It appeared in his pamphlet An Answer to the Scotch Presbyterian Eloquence (1693), 39-42 . ‘A LIST of those Murdered in Cold Blood, without trial, conviction, or any colour of Law. ONE Finlay shot at Belmoynock, by General Dalzel’ s orders, because he could not discover who was in arms at Pentland, Anno 1666; James Davie in Bathgate parish, and several others at divers times, shot, as hearing sermons in the fields, before the insurrection at Bothwell-bridge [in 1679].
