The Living Church
The Living Church | October 4, 1998 | Nothing Resolved by Gary G. Engels | 217(14) |
The Lambeth Conference has ended and the Anglican Communion has spoken loudly and clearly. The radical ideas concerning sexuality desired by a very small but vociferous minority were dismissed as totally unacceptable by a large majority of our bishops. One is inclined to feel that when our bishops speak as one, then the church has spoken, and so it was. I think it is now time to drop this matter and accept the verdict. Basic Christian tenets still prevail and again have survived the heretic's attack. I suppose there are still a few who will not accept this fact, and to those I offer a comment made a few years ago by one of the radical group's more outspoken members and then directed toward orthodox Christians: "Goodbye and Godspeed."
