  • Our Anglican Heritage 235
    OUR ANGLICAN HERITAGE 235 OUR ANGLICAN HERITAGE.1 BY THE REV. CANON A. J. TAIT, D.D. I. The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup : thou maintainest my lot. The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places : yea, I have a goodly heritage.-Psalm xvi. 5, 6. EVERAL happenings of the past few months have quickened S within me the desire to increase my knowledge and under­ standing of the religious Movements which made the development of Church life and activity a conspicuous feature of the nineteenth century, and so to grow in appreciation of the spiritual heritage into which the Church of England has entered in this twentieth century. Some of those happenings to which I refer were par­ ticularly connected with the challenge of our very right to exist­ ence, which is being constantly reiterated by representative spokes­ men of the Roman Communion. My purpose therefore for these Sunday mornings in August is to speak positively about our heritage, and our indebtedness for its enrichment to the Movements of the nineteenth century, and, if time permits at the close, to give my reasons for regarding the Roman challenge as having no true foundation. In connection with the recent celebrations of the Centenary of the Oxford Movement I noted with interest a statement of the Bishop of Llandaff. After warning his hearers, as many of our leaders have recently done both in Pulpit and Press, that the battle in the near future will be with the forces of materialism and secularism, he said that the paramount need of the day was for consecrated men and women who know the meaning of mem· bership of the consecrated Society.

    THE LATE REV. ROBERT CLARK. THE MISSIONS OF THE CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY A~D THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND ZENANA MISSIONARY · SOCIETY IN THE PUNJAB AND SINDH BY THE LATE REv. ROBERT CLARK, M.A. EDITED .AND REPISED BY ROBERT MACONACHIE, LATE I.C.S. LONDON: CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY SALi SBU R Y SQUARE, E.C. 1904 PREFATORY NOTE. --+---- THE first edition of this book was published in 18~5. In 1899 Mr. Robert Clark sent the copy for a second and revised edition, omitting some parts of the original work, adding new matter, and bringing the history of the different branches of the Mission up to date. At the same time he generously remitted a sum of money to cover in part the expense of the new edition. It was his wish that Mr. R. Maconachie, for many years a Civil officer in the Punjab, and a member of the C.M.S. Lahore Corre­ sponding Committee, would edit the book; and this task Mr. Maconachie, who had returned to England and was now a member of the Committee at home, kindly undertook. Before, however, he could go through the revised copy, Mr. Clark died, and this threw the whole responsibility of the work upon the editor. Mr. Maconachie then, after a careful examination of the revision, con­ sidered that the amount of matter provided was more than could be produced for a price at which the book could be sold. He therefore set to work to condense the whole, and this involved the virtual re-writing of some of the chapters.

SEVERAL collections of Dr. Handley Moule’s sermons have been made in former years, the last published as lately as 1908. But it has been thought that many readers, who have valued his teaching from study or pulpit, would welcome yet one more small volume of his latest and perhaps strongest period—strongest in fervency and in courage of thought and utterance. In a deep sense, no doubt, this preacher had one theme only—his Master and Lord ;—but his interest and sympathies ranged widely and touched all things human ; and in the choice of these sermons varzety of subject and occasion ~has been aimed at, to illustrate not his = spirituality only but his humanity ; for example E(to mention only three characteristic attitudes), ~his almost worship of womanhood and mother- hood and the home, his reverence towards the THEOLOGY LIBRARY SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY AT CLAREMONT A 5693 CALIFORNIA great medical profession, and his grateful and enthusiastic affection for persons and for places whose debtor he felt himself to be.

  • CHURCHMAN April, 1930
    THE CHURCHMAN April, 1930. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Church Assembly Commission on Church and State. N spite of strong opposition to the proposal, the Church Assembly I has decided to set up a Commission to inquire into the present relations of Church and State. The Archbishop of York, who introduced the motion, based it on a previous declaration of Arch­ bishop Davidson: "It is a fundamental principle that the Church, that is, the Bishops together with the clergy and laity, must in the last resort, when its mind has been fully ascertained, retain its inalienable right, in loyalty to our Lord Jesus Christ, to formu­ late its faith in Him and to arrange the expression of that Holy Faith in its form of worship." The appointment of the Commission at this time may be harmless, but with the Bishop of Durham determined to bring about the disestablishment of the Church, it seems inopportune to stir up an unnecessary controversy. As The Times and other papers have pointed out, there is no new feature in the relationship of Church and State. It is obvious that the Commission would not have been appointed if the House of Commons had not refused to sanction the Deposited Book, but that refusal was quite in accordance with the terms of the Enabling Act, which set up the Church Assembly and arranged the procedure by which legislation was to be submitted to Parliament. The proviso that the mind of the Church must have been fully ascer­ tained seems to indicate that recent events do not indicate that the Church Assembly adequately represents the mind of the Church.

  • Spiritual Warfare” in the Anglican Charismatic Renewal
    The Church Militant: A Study of “Spiritual Warfare” in the Anglican Charismatic Renewal by GRAHAM RUSSELL SMITH A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR of PHILOSOPHY School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham July 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

ABSTRACT This thesis uses a practical-theological methodology to explore the theology and spirituality of „spiritual warfare‟ that developed in the charismatic renewal from the 1960s. Beginning with a study of twelve charismatic Anglican pioneers, a detailed case study then explores spiritual warfare praxis in a charismatic Anglican congregation. The ensuing theological reflection focuses on the ontology of evil, through dialogue with Nigel Wright, Amos Yong, and Gregory Boyd, as well as Karl Barth and Walter Wink. The thesis argues for a positive ontology for evil powers, based on a charismatic hermeneutic of biblical texts; on the grounds that Jesus treated Satan and demons as real spiritual entities, the Pauline epistles refer to real evil spiritual powers in the heavenly realms, and charismatic experience supports this ontology.

  • Canal, River and Rapids : Contemporary Evangelicalism in the Church of England
    167 GRAHAM KINGS Canal, River and Rapids : Contemporary Evangelicalism in the Church of England Graham Kings maps out the shape of Evangelical Anglicanism in England today. He uses the metaphor of watercourses - canal, river, rapids - to describe conservative, open and charismatic evangelicals. For each category he describes key theological and ecclesiological features, organisations and people; He relates each evangelical type to its historical influences, and so reveals both the strengths and weaknesses of the contribution of each constituency today. Significant Anglican leaders can navigate more than one watercourse, and he concludes with a plea for Anglican Evangelical leaders to see NEAC 4 as an opportunity to reflect together on the challenges of our times. Introduction David Edwards, in a perceptive article on the church that Dr Rowan Williams has been called to lead commented: 'He will preside over a Church of England where the vitality is now mainly evangelical.' 1 There have been worrying signs over the last year, particularly in response to the appointment of Dr Williams, that this vitality could be dissipated in internecine strife: this would be tragic and is unnecessary. Ironically, the appointment of Dr Jeffrey John as Bishop of Reading elicited a more united response. In 2003 there are at least four significant evangelical Anglican events. In January Peter Jensen, the new Archbishop of Sydney toured eight churches of the Reform network; 2 in March 'Islington Conversations: Eclectics' (ICE) took place at St Mary Islington with conservative, open and charismatic speakers on the theme of 'Our Mission in Britain'. 3 In July, at Limuru, just outside Nairobi, Kenya, the second David Edwards, 'A Master Mariner Meets 3 The Islington Clerical Conference, founded the Storm' The Tablet, 27 July 2002, p 4.

The late Erapress-Dowager Tan Hsi, for many years the de facto ruler of China, was born In Novem­ ber 1835, and died in November 160S. She was the daughter o f a T&otai, to whom was granted the posthumous rank of Dule, and came of the patrician Mancliu clao o f Yehonala. She afterwards became the wife o f the Emperor Hienfeng, the mother of the Emperor Tung Chih, and the aunt of the late Emperor Kwang HsU, and o f the present Regent, Prince Chiin. As Empress, Regent, and Empress- Dowager she has had a paramount place In China's history for the last flfty-flve years. What part she has really played during this eventful period it is not easy to ascertain, for in association with Prince Kung, H.Ç. Li Hung Chang, H.E. Yung-lu, Prince Tnan, and Prince Ching, she is credited with an ever-varying rôle. Frontispiece. INTRODUCTORY NOTE O nce again, with grateful thanks to God, the Report of another year’s work is sent forth. Especial attention is called to the brief review of “ The Last Seven Years11 on pages 16-18, which will enable the reader to see how wonder­ fully God has been blessing and providing for the work during the last few years. That with a comparatively small increase of income the work has in many departments been doubled and trebled is much for which to give praise.
