Message from Eric M., Abbotsford, BC

The Anglican Church of Canada appears to be in a state of upheaval. My church, St Matthews Anglican Church of Abbotsford is in the middle of this turmoil. The reason seems to be that we insist on being fully true to the Holy Scriptures and to our rejecting the authority of those church leaders who have denied the orthodox faith in word or deed. We pray for them and call on them to repent and return to the Lord.

In “2019″ I would hope to see; The Anglican Church of Canada be a fully united church who believes the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the word of God written and to contain all things necessary for salvation. The Bible is to be translated, read, preached,t aught and obeyed in its plain and canonical sense, respectful of the church’s historic and consensual reading.

We uphold The Thirty-nine Articles as containing the true doctrine of the Church agreeing with God’s Word and as authoritative for Anglicans today.

I trust that this is the type of “input” which you can use.

Respectfully submitted
Eric Myrholm
Abbotsford, BC
