It’s certainly a mixed message. The use of “dad” instead of Father is misleading, as everyone can tell from the resulting comments. Poor choice of the word. Those of you that denounce Anglicanism should really do your homework first.
I have. Do you believe that the works of baptism and communion are required for salvation? This is part of the Anglican statement of faith and answers the question--what must one do to be saved.
In Acts 16:30,31 the jailer asked Paul and Silas what must he do to be saved. They answered, "Believe on The Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved, and your house."
They gave all he needed to be saved, otherwise what they answered would not be true by omission (the standard for a truthful witness is "the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the the truth"). It is notable that they did NOT say "be baptized", "take communion", "do penance", etc. They answered simply "believe."
This is the gospel that saves. There is no other (se Galatians 1). "By grace are ye saved through faith, and that (salvation) is not of yourselves, it is a gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8,9) When he saves us we become his workmanship, created for good works which we SHOULD walk in. This is AFTER salvation, not ADDED to the requirements for salvation.
If you are relying upon any work--baptism, communion, circumcision, giving up sins, keeping certain holidays, whatever, then you are NOT saved according to the Bible.
