The Reformed Congregations in the Netherlands (Dutch: Gereformeerden Gemeenten in Nederland, abbreviated GGiN) is a pietistic Reformed church mainly in the Netherlands and has 5 congregations in North America and a church in Pretoria, South Africa. == History == The church was founded in 1953 when Dr. C. Steenblok was dismissed from the theological seminary of the Reformed Congregations in Rotterdam, because he taught that God does not offer grace to all sinners, but only those persons who are elected and acknowledge their sins.〔http://www.reformiert-online.net/adressen/detail.php?id=149&lg=eng〕 After the death of Rev. Steenblok in 1966, Rev. Mallan had the leading position of the church. He created the denominational magazine the ''De Wachter Sions''. In 1980 a doctrinal struggle arose in the church and the denomination lost 50% of their pastors. Revs. A. van den Berg, J. de Groot and A. Wink left the denomination and they took 7 congregations with them. In 2013 the denomination has approximately 50 congregations and 25,942 members; in the Netherlands there are 24,010 members and abroad there are 1,932 members.〔:nl:Gereformeerde Gemeenten in Nederland#Geschiedenis〕
