Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

This won't be on Anglican reading lists either. About a week or so ago, one of our readers, in another forum, called me a "Cafeteria Reformation" man. He was rebutted there.

We are still on standby for his authoritative and informative defense of what the ACNA "is," doctrinally. We've decided to call his bluff.

May it be said that Anglicanism (versus Anglicanism without the Reformation = continuuing Romanism) was a Reformation faith. May it also be said that the English Reformers listened to the "cafeteria" of Reformation writings and confessions, including Lutheran and Reformed divines. For our fisherman-interlocutor, here's a blog and work that you won't find informing ACNA clerics.
