“Some of Anglican Primates, such as dear Abp. Akinola in Africa, are sounding very Orthodox, at least to my half-educated ears.”
Some of what he says really is quite Orthodox and he certainly is a brave hierarch, living daily with threats from Mohamedans to his community and frankly to himself. His armor is The Faith as he understands it. Compare him to the prancing sissies, sob sisters, limp wrists and fellow travelers of most of First World Anglicanism!
But, TC, if you want Orthodoxy in Anglican dress, read Bishop Ryle! He was sublimely Orthodox in a Victorian evangelical Anglican way. His “tracts” are abslutely incredible.
I quite concur!
I’ve enjoyed some of Bp. Ryle’s writing that Sionnsar has posted ... and I think I have a book somewhere on the shelves. Bp. Ryle is popular with the neo-Puritan Protestants, although they’d probably have a cow about his sacramental theology, if they bothered to look into it.
