Robin,
ReplyDeletePerhaps Wabukala's change of mind is to be interpreted by the ACNA prophets as somehow divinely inspired?
Richard,
ReplyDeleteFrom the related Anglican Ink article, "Wabukala withdraws support from AMiA," I gather that Wabukala initially thought that supporting AMiA would facilitate its enfolding into the Anglican Church in North America. He then had second thoughts after a number of GAFCON Primates questioned his decision and Bob Duncan reacted with surprise to the decision and withdrew his support. The whole affair suggests to me that the Africans and other members of the FCA are not well-informed about the ACNA or the AMiA. They rely too much on what ACNA and AMiA leaders tell them rather than independently investigating the situation in North America for themselves. Their apparent goal is to promote the formation of an alternative province to the Episcopal Church. They appear to be oblivious to the fact that the alternative province whose formation they are promoting is not fully committed to the tenets of Anglican orthodoxy articulated in The Jerusalem Declaration. It contains groups and individuals who are intent upon furthering a different view of "Anglican orthodoxy".
