Doctrinal basis. All trustees and faculty must affirm the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Larger and Shorter Catechisms (Wikipedia).

Points to weigh

• Founded in 1929 by Princeton Seminary faculty, including J. Gresham Machen, who opposed that seminary's modernist reorganization.
• Documented faculty disputes over theological direction: Norman Shepherd (1981, justification), Peter Enns (2008, Old Testament interpretation), and Douglas Green (2014).
