[VirtueOnline] 22 Sep 2008--There are two kinds of bishops in the Episcopal Church, biblical bishops and secularly modernized bishops. The first have a personal relationship with Jesus and believe in the authority of Scripture. The second compromise with secularized thinking and standards reinterpreting Scripture to accommodate contemporary culture. The first are in the minority.
Modernized bishops have arrived through the present world's methodology of corporate career advancement. They would bristle at being accused in such a way but Scripture is clear when Jesus says you are either for Him or against Him. Biblical bishops do not question the authority of Scripture or attempt to reinterpret it. They know the injunction not to add or subtract from it.
These two groups live in two entirely different worlds, two different mindsets, with two totally conflicting beliefs and missions. No wonder among a number of bishops the House is considered totally dysfunctional. That has to say something about the spiritual condition and biblical conformity of its membership. They reflect a complete lack of spiritual and biblical unity. Modernized bishops are the reason for the decline and fall of the Episcopal Church in America.
