Calvin 500 -- Without Surprise Anglicans AWOL
Anglicans, due to dystopia, dysphoria, poor educations and stunted growth are AWOL for this conference. Henry Orombi may be an Anglican below, but that's it from what I can see; if so, we commend Mr. Orombi. Four generations deep into the English Reformation and there would have been leaders on-hand. Instead, the new Province, formed up over homoerotica, feels they have a new Reformation. It's embarrassing, but the truth must be told; it is better than Prozac, however, to contemplate their new federation formed over homoerotica. We are thankful for the Protestant and Reformed Churchmen who are mature and have done some reading. A veritable lineup of more mature theological thinkers are on offer.

And, yet, 400 years ago the Church of England sent observers to the Synod of Dordrecht and the trial of Jacobus Arminius. Yes, things were different 400 years ago!

Augustus Toplady lays the blame at ABC Laud's feet for the turn-around. I've read that Laud "used" the system to fill high appointments with Arminians. His Arminianism extended back to his university days where he ran afoul of Calvinists. I understand that the Anglicans were well-represented and supported the Continental Reformed in their views. Unfortunately, Anglicanism did not embrace Dordtrecht.

Martin:
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't read it yet, the piece on Toplady at this site is priceless. One won't be hearing this material these days.
