American Anglican Council assessment of Primates’ Communique

[Anglican Mainstream] 7 Feb 2009--The American Anglican Council values the importance of speaking the truth—even when it is uncomfortable or unwelcome. For as Jesus said, “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32) The truth that Jesus proclaimed sets people free and transforms lives, but it is often unwelcome and uncomfortable for those who do not want to change and who cannot acknowledge the need to be set free. We believe the false Gospel proclaimed by the leadership of TEC, and advanced by its surrogates throughout the Communion, continues to enslave people in sin and deters them from seeing the need to change. We believe this false gospel threatens to undermine the Anglican Communion’s witness to the uniqueness and universality of Jesus Christ—the truth that sets us free. We regret that the Primates’ Communiqué fails to provide an effective response to this threat.
