Reformed Churchmen: Anglican Primates of Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda, Rwanda, Sudan and Southern Cone Write to New Archbishop Welby

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.

Anglican Primates of Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda, Rwanda, Sudan and Southern Cone Write to New Archbishop Welby

This is a warning shot across the bow from the Africans. Justin will have his hands full, trying to mediate between Bible-believing African Anglicans and the English (and American/Canadian) Anglicans--long mangled with syncretism, doctrinal indifference, and soft idolatries of pleasantries over substance and merit.

Archbishop Justin Welby

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and The Lord Jesus Christ.

We greet you on this day of celebration and assure you and your family of our prayers for your future ministry.

We are grateful for this opportunity to worship in Canterbury Cathedral and be reminded of our historic faith that is grounded in the revealed Word of God.

We encourage you to stay true to the 'faith once delivered to the saints' and as you do we will stand with you for the sake of Christ.

We do look forward to a future opportunity to meet and discuss how we can work together.

To Him be all the glory..
