[USA Today] 30 Oct 2006--When Anglican Archbishop Thomas Cranmer compiled the Book of Common Prayer during the 16th century, he wanted to make the prayers accessible, so he wrote in English, not Latin, and made sure it was distributed to every church.

Cuckoo Theology

http://richardkew.blogspot.com/2006/08/cuckoo-theology.html

[The Kew Continuum] 24 Oct 2006--It has seemed to me for a while now that as you look at the history of the church, and its efforts to make known the apostolic faith down through the centuries, there have been major episodes when what I will describe as a Cuckoo Theology has, somehow, landed in the nest and caused great difficulties. Gnosticism, Arianism, the aridity of Rationalism, and various other -isms, have played a significant role in elbowing their way to center stage and intimidating or even seeking to destroy the legitimate offspring.

The Episcopal Church (USA) allies with IEAB Bishop of Recife before Archbishop of Canterbury issues his report

http://www.episcopalchurch.org/3577_78841_ENG_HTM.htm?menu=undefined

[Episcopal News Service] 24 Oct 2006--The Archbishop of Canterbury sent two bishops to investigate the situation in Recife and Brazil over the summer. He has yet to issue his report on the situation. Meanwhile TEC (USA) has by the presence of bishops and its report fully endorsed the IEAB Bishop at his investiture attended by 400 people including his 14 clergy. The Diocese of Recife with Bishop Cavalcanti has 32 clergy and one congregation alone 1000 people. There is a clear division and overlap here between a self-styled “liberation theology” diocese and a charismatic and evangelical diocese who hosted an international SOMA conference in 2005.

Fitness for Choirs

[The Living Church] 24 Oct 2006--Singing is an athletic activity that requires stamina of body, mind and spirit.

Archbishop Jensen: Sydney in the Anglican Communion

http://www.globalsouthanglican.org/index.php/comments/archbishop_jensen_sydney_in_the_anglican_communion/

[Global South Anglican] 24 Oct 2006--With what seems like immense power the cultural situation continues in many ways to be unfavourable to the faith. This is so in the general community. It has also impacted the church community. Mr Peter Young sent me an account of his recent visit to a famous Chapel in Britain: ‘A female layperson conducted a brief prayer service. She was doing this in an Anglican Church. She commenced by ringing a Buddhist bell three times. She concluded with a prayer, “May the god who is God in your judgment, according to whatever faith you hold, give you peace.”’ He continues, ‘I immediately thought “How often has Peter or his brother (Phillip, the Dean of Sydney) expressed this very prayer in his cathedral?” I’m sure I know the answer!’

Purgatory and Penance

http://www.churchsociety.org/churchman/documents/Cman_118_3_Curry.pdf

[Churchman] 19 Oct 2006--The nineteenth century champion of conservative Calvinistic theology at Princeton Seminary, New Jersey, reminds us, when speaking of the Church of
Rome’s understanding of the sacraments and the means of grace, that ‘she says that the power of a priest is above that even of angels and archangels’. ...Whilst discussing his ordination on 18 October, 1951 as a priest of the Church of Rome, after four years of painstaking, incisive work in dogmatic and moral theology, the Mexican Cipriano Valdes Jaimes says that, on that day, through the laying on of hands by the bishop, I was given...the ability to forgive men’s sins, both inside and outside the...confessional box. On that day I received the power to sacrifice Christ
over again on an altar...I could now release souls from purgatory.

Amicable Separation?

http://www.standfirminfaith.com/index.php/site/article/amicable_separation/#14750

[Stand Firm] 18 Oct 2006--The words, “amicable separation,” have been used quite frequently in these latter/last days of the Episcopal Church. Bishop Duncan used them in his address to the Network Conference in Pittsburgh in late July of this year. The concept of amicable separation is implicit in the combined Alternative Primatial Oversight requests that seek both “disassociation” from the current leadership of the Episcopal Church and a “cease-fire” with them. The possibility of amicable separation was apparently entertained at the September summit meeting in New York. And an amicable separation of “ecclesiastical structures” seems to be the desired outcome of the Kigali proposals found in section 10 of the Communique.

Archbishops Gomez and Venables Respond to POR Report

http://www.standfirminfaith.com/index.php/site/article/1307/

[Stand Firm] 14 Oct 2006--While one appreciates the legal logic displayed by the Panel, one cannot help but conclude that the Panel has failed to understand the political and theological reality of the situation in which the applicants find themselves. Consequently, in my opinion, the recommendations of the Panel do not respond adequately to the real situation. In addition the Panel seems to have ignored the present situation in the Communion as described by the Archbishop of Canterbury in his 14th of September, 2006, letter....
