Discipline is on the agenda of the Primates’ meeting

David Virtue is reporting that both TEC and the ACoC are to be disciplined at the Primates’ meeting in January.

There are ACoC clergy that have a keen interest in discipline, but only if it is accompanied by bondage.

From VOL:

The discipline of The Episcopal Church (and presumably the Anglican Church of Canada) will be the first item on the agenda when the Primates of the Anglican Communion meet in Canterbury in January, VOL has learned.

If TEC and the ACoC are disciplined for their departure from the faith and do not leave the meeting, the Global South Primates will not be likely to stay, VOL was told.

If they are disciplined, repent and do the right thing and leave, the Global South archbishops will stay on, said the source.

A report by the Archbishop of the Anglican Church of Canada Fred Hiltz that ACNA Archbishop Foley Beach had only been invited for one day before the formal meeting gets under way — “as an opportunity for some conversation, in the ultimate hope that we might be able to find a way forward towards reconciliation,” is simply inaccurate. Hiltz described this as “a good thing.”

But VOL was told that this interpretation by Hiltz about what he thinks will transpire in Canterbury is simply not true and avoids the facts. Archbishop Beach will only come if the Global South archbishops come and they will only appear if Beach is invited and the issue of the North American departure from Scripture is the centerpiece of the discussion.

“The central issue of this meeting will be the theological innovations of The Episcopal Church and not climate change,” VOL was told.

  1. I will believe it when I see it. Ten years ago, godly correction of TEC and ACoC by Cantuar++ would have had real bite, and might well have had a positive impact of GC 2006. Now, both are so far along that road that nothing of substance will change.

  2. As I have stated in previous submissions, the TEC and the ACoC have no interest whatever in the Gospel and are solely concerned with their worship of the small “g”, the god of political correctness. The only appropriate discipline would be defrocking the leadership of both until they — and those who blindly follow them — publicly repent and reaffirm their vows to uphold both the authority of Scripture and the uniqueness of Jesus Christ. I sincerely hope that the ABC adheres to this recommendation. Further the TEC and the ACoC should be forced to return properties legally stolen from genuine orthodox believers.
