This seems to go nicely with my results as a Prayerbook or "Seersucker" Low Churchman.

I am happy to report another wonderful experience at Grace Episcopal Church (established 1697). The Rector even wears the Anglican traditional choir dress as officiant at the Rite I Eucharist! So splendid to see in a colonial parish. ⚓

How many Ecumenical Councils are traditionally recognized by Anglicans? 4 only, with a special distain for Nicea II. ⚓

Day 7:

This book was a splendid defense of the Church of England and it's Confession, the Articles of Religion. John Jewel's Apology is an absolute must read for any serious Anglican Christian.

Heading off an unfortunately common misunderstanding, we are told that while we ought to obey the civil magistrate, we are bound not to obey that which is contrary to the Lord.

Just as Martin Luther taught about the meaning of the fifth commandment, Justus Jonas and Thomas Cranmer taught that honoring mother and father extended to various authorities including the civil magistrate.

Day 6:

A special two for one deal today. My first exposure to Reformed Eucharistology did not come from John Calvin, it did not come from Heinrich Bullinger, but came from our own premier Reformer, Archbishop Thomas Cranmer and his close friend Bishop Nicholas Ridley.

Day 5:

Barth's Dogmatics in Outline was the final push that convinced me entirely of Monergism. Before, I had struggled but the way he explained in was so sublime that I could no longer deny it.

Day 4:

Seeking to understand our historic doctrinal foundations more deeply I began exploring the Homilies. I went in expecting to find so much to disagree with, and that I would prove to myself Rome's correctness. What I found instead was a quickened transformation into Reformed Protestantism.

Day 3:

Freshly open to Reformed thought I set in to understand Justification in the Anglican context. I of course began with Cranmer. This book was paramount in my becoming a convicted Reformed Protestant true to the Anglican tradition.

Day 2:

This book didn't change my life in the way you would expect. It wasn't eschatology that it most profoundly influenced me on, it was actually the concepts of choice, the will, and causation. Much to DBH's horror (I'm sure lol) his arguments on the Will opened me up to Reformed theology.
December 29, 2024 at 6:12 PM
The Evangelical wisdom of Justus Jonas which Cranmer inculcated into England was the making of the mundane and oft difficult lives of the normal Christian, something sacred being offered to God by obedience to Him.

Well this is an upsetting headline to run across.

Day 1:

This book, despite its provocative title, is a rigorous scholarly look at the theology around Ordination. Realizing that the Protestant view of Ordination and Holy Orders was historically well attested was a domino effect for me leaving Anglo-Catholicism and my fascination Rome. ⚓

Classic Anglicanism teaches the infallibility and [qualified] perspecuity of scripture. ⚓
