[EV News] 5 July 2007--The Times reports today that Dr Peter Akinola, Primate of Nigeria, says that his 120-plus bishops will boycott next year’s Lambeth Conference unless the US Church halts its liberal agenda. The Nigerian bishops will be meeting in September to decide whether to attend the conference.

In an interview with The Times today, Dr Peter Akinola says that he has lost faith that the Episcopal Church of the United States will ever listen to the conservative evangelical leaders of the Global South churches of Africa and Asia: “All we are saying is, do not celebrate what the Bible says is wrong.”
