The second characteristic are the prominent persons and pastors who belonged to this church related including the pastors Joh. van der Poel and e. du Marchie vingataramin and elder L.J. Palmer for whom great esteem exists. The third characteristic is the less tight dogmatic profiling. There are no private ' teaching '.
