Professor J I Packer: Anglican Church League Statement of Support

http://acl.asn.au/packer-acl-support/

[Anglican Church League] 3 Mar 2008--Anglican Church League President Dr Mark Thompson has released this statement in support of Professor J I Packer:

The ACL notes with alarm the Bishop of New Westminster’s threat to revoke Professor J I Packer’s ‘spiritual authority as a minister of Word and Sacraments’.

Professor Packer, one of the leading Christian voices of the twentieth century, is amongst those who have voted to stand with authentic and orthodox Anglicans rather than those who have undermined biblical truth over many decades and most recently by their innovations regarding homosexual practice. As one of these he has now become a target for revisionist aggression. Once again the intolerance and anti-liberal heart of liberal Christianity has been exposed.
