From the Sydney Anglicans, we get this. http://acl.asn.au/trueman-on-john-owen/ Carl Trueman gives a video introduction to Puritan theologian John Owen. It’s from Westminster Seminary on YouTube and runs for 10 minutes 20 seconds.
We love much of Owen's writings, but Puritans tossing the 1662 BCP was unnecessary and extremist.

If we'd been able to keep most of the Puritans in the Anglican fold then arguably their descendants would have been able to stop the Tractarian movement dead in its tracks.
Yes, that is an arguable position, to wit, keeping the conservative, moderate, fair-minded Puritans in the fold along with further adoption of Confessional standards would have stayed and stopped the Tractarians in their tracks. It would still be possible for form up coalitions along those lines, however, the current Anglican leadership on offer offers so little by way of hope or theology there. Nevertheless, what do numbers matter? If that were so, we would be with the rest of the perishing and not aboard HMS Noah's Ark...or the USS Noah's Ark. Good to have you aboard. Philip
