It professes the faith uniquely revealed in the Holy Scriptures and set forth in the catholic creeds, which faith the Church is called upon to proclaim afresh in each generation. Led by the Holy Spirit, it has borne witness to Christian truth in its historic formularies, the Thirty-nine Articles of Religion, The Book of Common Prayer and the Ordering of Bishops, Priests and Deacons. In the declaration you are about to make will you affirm your loyalty to this inheritance of faith as your inspiration and guidance under God in bringing the grace and truth of Christ to this generation and making him known to those in your care?” Preface to the Declaration of Assent (Canon C15) These words introduce the Declaration of Assent which is made by those being commissioned for ordained and lay ministries in our church. They indicate the particular place which the Church of England inhabits in the life of this country. Our heritage is that of the Gospel handed down through the generations, but also the heritage of our ministry and our buildings, together with a substantial role in the nation’s public life. Our ministry has a significant impact on the stories people tell each other of what it means to be a Christian in this country.

  • The Bishop of Rochester, the Rt Rev James Langstaff, Has Presided at a Ceremony to Dedicate the Newly Opened Bishop Chavasse Church of England Primary School
    The Bishop of Rochester, the Rt Rev James Langstaff, has presided at a ceremony to dedicate the newly opened Bishop Chavasse Church of England Primary School. The Bishop was welcomed by Headteacher Donna Weeks and reception pupils to a grand opening ceremony on Friday 1st December. Based on land next to the new Somerhill Green development, Bishop Chavasse Church of England Primary School opened its doors in September to its first two classes of reception children. The opening of this traditionally run primary school marks the return of Church of England education to Tonbridge. Until recently, parents who wanted a Church of England education had to travel outside of the town to the nearest church school in Tunbridge Wells. The new school, which has been made possible with money from central government, adds new primary places and significant capacity to Tonbridge and the families it serves. Tom Tugendhat MP for Tonbridge and Malling, who marked the event by cutting the ribbon and officially opening the school, said “I am delighted to have had the privilege of opening Bishop Chavasse Primary School today. This is already a fantastic school adding to the range serving the needs of our community here, in Tonbridge. I’m proud to have played a small part in making today a reality. I’m pleased that we can celebrate all the hard work that has gone into this school today and I wish everyone involved best wishes for the future.” Bishop Chavasse Church of England School is part of the Tenax Schools Trust that is led by the highly acclaimed Bennett Memorial Diocesan School in Tunbridge Wells.

  • Book Reviews
    Book Reviews THE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY OF THE BIBLE: THE WEsT FROM THE REFORMATION TO THE PRESENT DAY. Edited by S. L. Greenslade. (Cambridge University Press.) 590 pp. 45s. We must hope that the expectation that this will be but the first of a series of companion volumes will not be disappointed. Originally only two volumes were envisaged: this one and another, to be edited by Professor G. W. H. Lampe, covering the period prior to the Reforma­ tion, and both limited in scope to the western world. Now, however, the preparation of further volumes relating to other aspects and other areas is under consideration. This present volume is admirably conceived and beautifully produced. Apart from the essays contributed by a galaxy of competent scholars, there is a section of four dozen pages of photographic plates illustrating the history of the Bible during the Protestant era. Dr. Roland Bainton's chapter on the Bible in the Reformation is thrown out of balance by his preoccupation with the views of Luther. It is ast · · hat he gives no attention to the writings and sermons of the English formers. His assertion that," of all the parties of the Reformation, the Anabaptists were the most scriptural " is open to serious misconstruction, since to be woodenly literalistic is not the same thing as being scriptural. Moreover, to speak of the Reformed viewpoint as one " which looked upon the Scriptures as the container of the Word of God" is misleading, since the Reformers customarily taught and treated the Scriptures as being (rather than containing) the Word of God.
