Opening of Year Law Service 2008

In saying that ‘all authority comes from God’, and that those in authority are God’s servants for our good, the Bible has certainly not forgotten Pontius Pilate and King Herod. On the contrary, there are moments in the biblical record where authority is rightly defied, and there exist those noble words, ‘we must obey God, rather than man.’

Responding to the American House of Bishops

You can get a sense of what I am saying by reading both the whole of the HOB statement and Bishop Mouneer’s dissenting opinion. If it is true that the Americans have failed to deliver, you can see why this is the case. We are confronted with two great passions for a gospel. It is hardly an answer at all to the Primates: it’s really, passionately all about a gospel of inclusion. Most don’t regret what they have done – not for a moment. This is a missionary faith. Far from retreating, they hope that all will come to agree with them and they are making arrangements for this to happen.

The next 20 years for Anglican Communion

‘Crisis’, ‘schism’, ‘division’, ‘break-up’ – this has been the language of the last five years in the Anglican Communion.

The decisive moments have passed. Irreversible actions have occurred.
