[allAfrica.com] 14 Jul 2008--The Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON) held in Jerusalem last month gave birth to a new spiritual movement opposed to the leadership of Canterbury. Moses Mulondo, talked to the Archbishop of Uganda, Henry Luke Orombi, about GAFCON.
What was GAFCON about?
| |
We determined to start a spiritual movement centred on Christ as the head of the Church and the Bible as the basis of our faith while accepting the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We had both the clergy and zealous lay Christians. It is a movement that will yield results similar to the East African Revival of the Balokole movement within the Anglican Church.
When will you implement GAFCON's resolutions?
We have been practising all these resolutions like opposing sexual pervasions, using the Bible as the basis of our faith, evangelism, accepting the guidance of the Holy Spirit and maintaining the lordship of Jesus.
Besides homosexuality, what other practices set you apart from the Lambeth group?
Homosexuality is one of the symptoms of the disease. The disease is rejecting the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit by doing things on basis of corrupted human wisdom, leading to false doctrines. These people believe Jesus is not the only way to heaven.
How big is the Anglican community that subscribes to the GAFCON resolutions?
We comprise the biggest percentage of the worldwide Anglican community: 40 million out of 77 million Anglicans. One thousand one hundred-forty eight delegates representing 25 countries attended.
How are you going to help those Anglicans on the other side?
We shall pray for them so that they discover they have taken a wrong path.
