Anglican chaplain works hard to prevent Christian conversion in schools

Imagine that.

From here:

THE chaplain at Melbourne’s most prestigious Anglican school has spoken out against the way religion is taught in Victorian government schools, saying their classrooms should not be used for ”conversion”.

[…..]

While proselytising is supposed to be forbidden, a recording recently emerged of a speech by Access Ministries chief executive Evonne Paddison, in which she stressed the need to ”go and make disciples”.

She also said: ”Without Jesus, our students are lost.”

Her comments sparked outrage and have prompted an investigation by both the state and federal governments.

Mr Noone said the statement that children would be lost without Jesus revealed Dr Paddison’s theology and educational philosophy.

‘The statement is claiming a lot and it is manifestly not true, however I don’t doubt that it forms the basis of why she does what she does,” he wrote in Melbourne Grammar’s newsletter. ”There is a certain kind of evangelical Christian who believes they have the truth and a serious duty to tell everyone else.”

Well, Rev. Noone, if you think the statement ”Without Jesus, our students are lost.” is “manifestly not true”, why are you a member of a profession whose job it is to proclaim that it is true?

Oh, I get it, you are a member of the fifth column gaytheists who have infiltrated the Anglican church in order to turn it into the people’s socialist lawn bowling collective.

An Anglican priest denies the existence of Hell

This seems to be an odd career limiting assertion for a priest: if there is no hell, we don’t need saving; if we don’t need saving, we don’t need a Saviour; if we don’t need a Saviour, we certainly don’t need church or priests. Perhaps that explains why the Anglican Church in Canada is losing thousands of people every year.

From here:

The idea of hell as a place of punishment for the wicked was widespread in the world long before the Christian era. However it became assimilated into the official teaching of the Church very early on, in spite of the fact it conflicts with both Bible teaching and the inherited liturgies; and this contradiction has continued over the centuries……

The time has come for all denominations to think again about anomalies and inconsistencies in the inherited faith, which have led many people to come to disregard the Christian religion altogether, without realizing that what they are rejecting is not the faith itself but distortions of it that should indeed rightly be challenged.

The Christian doctrine of the Trinity has been misunderstood as being belief in three gods, but it is belief in One God, who has been described as being made up of three entities, between whom love flows, The Lover, the Beloved, and Love itself [and I always thought there were three Persons in the Trinity – silly me].

Thinking about the true nature of God, accepting that God is Love, and putting the demands of that Love first and our ideas about “religion” second, would surely have huge ramifications for the future peace of the world.

A God of Love does not send people to hell!

Of course, anyone who has had to sit through an average Anglican sermon has irrefutable evidence that Hell exists.
