June 19 2022 By dvirtue Trigger Warning: The Episcopal "Church" isn't a Church

First, some background might be helpful. The Episcopal Church began its slide decades ago when it began exchanging truth for cultural acceptance. Traditional doctrines on issues such as homosexuality, or whether Jesus meant what He said when He proclaimed "No man comes to the Father, except through Me" were abandoned. A more culturally palatable "church" was being built, one where homosexuality wasn't a sin; in fact, priests were ordained who were openly homosexual.

Shortly before his exit 18 months ago, thankfully departed Bp Jeffrey Lee announced the prospective sale of the building which had held his offices for his dismal 12-year reign. Adjacent to the Cathedral of St. James which had served as the bishop's seat since the 1930s (the original cathedral, Sts.

and give us a new language of love;
through Jesus Christ, the Image of God's Being."

Writing in the context of the likely over-turning of landmark abortion ruling Roe v Wade by the US Supreme Court, Moore says: 'For pro-life Christians like me, the warning should be that it is possible to "win" and "lose" a culture of life at the very same time.'

He explains: 'The greatest danger here is not what focus groups or polling data say about abortion, but something that has nothing to do with abortion at all -- the moral credibility of the American church.

June 08 2022 By dvirtue Canterbury rebuke to African Primates reveals theological difference and personal animosity

Archbishop Welby's letter mentions Lambeth I:10, and says it has not been rescinded. But the implication is that this resolution is of merely academic and historic interest, not morally binding in any way. This is why Provinces which have disregarded its teaching on sex and marriage still take part in the Anglican Communion as if nothing has happened.
