The Anglican Way

by Gerald Bray

 

The English Reformation produced the Book of Common Prayer and the Thirty-nine Articles of Religion as its foundational documents. Both represent the more Reformed (as opposed to Lutheran) phase of the English reformation, though they are closer to patristic and medieval traditions than most Reformed

Bp. J.C. Ryle: Review of Evangelical Anglicanism, 1829-1879






The ever-wise, well-read,
scholarly, evangelical, kind, firm, courageous, unblinking and old Anglican Prayer Book
man and Bishop, John Charles Ryle, gives his review of Evangelical Anglicanism from
1829 to 1879.  The principles of
steadfastness and courage are ever-timely. 
May it be said that the frivolities and entertainments—then, as now—disappear
as the brain-dead jokers (what else can

Predestination, 39 Articles, and Anglicans


Regrettably, this issue needs to be raised, although it has been long established.  Predestination is, put simply,  Biblical. Denial thereof is obstinacy and pride, put simply.  While there are many other doctrinal loci that cannot be obscured by this, yet, it must be taught.

Peter Vermigli: Providence and Predestination




Peter Martyr Vermigli
(Italian Pietro Martire Vermigli)
 (8 September 1499 – 12 November 1562),
sometimes simply Peter Martyr,
was an Italian theologian
of the Reformation period.

An accurate and brief comment is registered at www.wikipedia.org, a dangerous source and, generally, unacceptable source for scholars.  However, this is accurate about Peter Vermigli.
"Vermigli and Ochino were

Sermon Series on Thirty-nine Articles: St. Andrews Anglican, Mt. Pleasant, SC




The
Rev. Mr. Steve Wood has announced a sermon series on The Thirty-nine Articles at his church, St. Andrews Anglican, Mt.
Pleasant, South Carolina.  If Reformation Anglican was near  Rev. Wood's church?  We would be attending.  What Anglican Church do you know that is conducting such inquiries?  Although in the Anglican exile, one must continue to shine in the darkness.

We continue to vet

Article 12 of 39: "Good Works"








Article XII

Of Good Works

Albeit that good works, which are
the fruits of faith and follow after justification, cannot put away our sins
and endure the severity of God's judgment, yet are they pleasing and acceptable
to God in Christ, and do spring out necessarily of a true and lively faith,
insomuch that by them a lively faith may be as evidently known as a tree
discerned by the fruit.

Anti-Arminians: Anglican Reformed Tradition from Charles II to George I





We refuse to pay this exorbitant price for the present.  However, it is from OUP, a world class press.  Undoubtedly, we may break down and purchase it.  We are not surprised by the thesis, in the least. Not one whit!  Rev. Augustus Montague Toplady is one Churchman, amongst others, in the Reformation, Calvinistic and Anglican stream of the holy, catholic and apostolic church.

Shakespeare's "Othello:" Iago...Totally Corrupted, Utterly Depraved, Entirely Enslaved and Remorselessly a Rational Madman








Aside from our Biblical, Confessional, liturgical and historic committments, a study in rendered on

Iago, a keen antagonist in Shakespeare's Othello.  Iago appears to be a decretal reprobate from
eternity past.  We submit the following review of Iago, the corrupted, depraved, ontologically
enslaved,  epistemologically enslaved, volitionally enshackled and thoroughly corrupted Iago. 

Justin Taylor: Do Historical Matters Matter to the Faith







Justin Taylor offers this book recommendation. It
looks good. The subject of inerrancy, Biblical authority, sola scriptura,
inspiration and the "International Council on Biblical Inerrancy"
have been subjects of recent musings. Little appears in the popular media
outlets on the subject. In addition to the book below, we strongly recommend
reading the English Reformer, William Whittaker,
