As a Roman Catholic, I thank you Father Calvin for respecting my faith. I get tired of people just casually bashing my fellow Catholics and it's refreshing to hear men of God who may not exactly be Catholic, but have my respect and admiration well enough.
Thank you.
There is hope that Calvin will cross the Tiber to Rome 🙏
@@OzCrusader please no. He should stay with Christ, not the papacy. You know the pope is a total heretic right? He’s on the woke side, not on Calvin’s side.
@@OzCrusaderWhy would he do that? What benefit would it be to him? The same ideology that has taken over the Church of England is taking over the Church of Rome. The only difference is that the Church of Rome is 30 years behind the Church of Rome. 30 years from now the Church of Rome will be in the exact place the Church of England is in currently. So, unless Rev. Calvin is planing on a short life switching to the Church of Rome is a waste of time and is a solution to nothing.
@Mi-bi6ez superstition is a loaded word and can mean a variety of similar things. I think it just might be ignorance, I don't care for prattle from Anglican Protestants. I just won't bow into typical claims from protestants frequently thrown at me, but Father Robertson hasn't so he at least had my respect.
As an Anglican I have huge respect for the Catholic Church. My church is C of E, but also high church. I consider myself Anglo Catholic
Great to see the Free Church of England getting some promotion! They're a humble lot, but as the CofE crumbles into heresy and apostasy the FCE stands firm on God's Word. Its also lovely to see a Highchurchman entering the FCE, it needs to be broad in practice and strict on theology. God bless you Fr Calvin, keep up the good work.
I’m Catholic but have respect for High church Anglicanism.
Fully agree. Tradition and ceremony serve as time proven bonds to society (as human nature carries on as always as it wishes - in variations of descret secret if necessary) and as barometers to society's collapse.
I’m Anglican and have major respect for Roman Catholic tradition. I consider myself Anglo Catholic
As an Anglican, I believe that you guys are similar to us and I would gladly speak. But there are certain doctrinal issues that keep us apart, I pray that will not be the case in the future.

Thank you Father Calvin for letting me know about the ACNA. I've been curious about rediscovering Christianity here in the states but the US churches are... peculiar. Knowing there's a conservative Anglican branch gives me hope and I'm going to go seek out my local congregation.
Call no man on the earth your father, for one is your Father, he who is in heaven.

@@Damian.Williams For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
@@tr1084 I know you probably believe Paul over Messiah my friend... But Paul is hard to understand that's why scripture gives us a warning about his writings...
It's shameful for a man to be ruled over, the head of every man is Messiah not another man...
Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you. But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
1 Corinthians 11:2-3
Here Peter warned us about those who would twist Paul's writings
and reckon the patience of our Master as deliverance, as also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him, as also in all his letters, speaking in them concerning these matters , in which some are hard to understand, which those who are untaught and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do also the other Scriptures. You, then, beloved ones, being forewarned, watch, lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the delusion of the Lawless,
2 Peter 3:15-17
@@Damian.Williams I don't believe Christ and Paul are in conflict and I don't believe your exegesis has authority.
Thank you for what you do. I left the church ages ago because it didn't fit the gospel teachings. I was torn because I was taught it was the church teaching that I was to follow yet also from reading the bible I could see how the church has been more concerned in the number of butts in the seats than speaking truths
I suppose you could see the church, the stained glass and the gold items as the collective prayer of the community. Glorifying God with the efforts and resources of the worshippers. Given freely. I'm not religious but I believe such things are of enormous importance.

Fascinating conversation
I love Calvin ge is wonderful. Ive look everywhere for his talks. I miss his common sense crusade on GB news
I’m a Baptist and can see quite a lot of your arguments, but I just can’t quite get on board with all the saints days and pageantry. We’re kind of sticks in the mud that way.
As a Catholic, I can see your point of view and, at least in a theological context, actually agree with you. However, I see it merely as an expression of culture and tradition to honor them and less to deify them. But I can completely see why many Protestant denominations can't get on board with it. To each their own I say, which makes every kind of Christian a bit unique and different, in a good way that is.
All I know my friend is we are Christians before being Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, Mormon etc. And I support your right to worship as you please. There's a common assault on all of Christendom and we need to stick together. We are all the historic faith of the West, and all of our sects and denominations are being subverted or destroyed in the Western World. Christians, nonbelievers of Christian background/heritage and anyone who is fond of Christianity regardless of background are all in a common struggle as far as I can tell.
That's my perspective though, not trying to put words in your mouth one way or the other. I appreciate your perspective and wish the best.
@Kaiser-gt4rr Mormons are as Christian as Islam is.
think about it this way. a saint day is a memorial day of the saint, in reality this is all it is.
Strongly recommend the Movie "Cromwell", to anyone who is interested in the Civil War period and the Puritans versus Cavaliers conflict, Richard Harris is excellent as the pious Cromwell and it has a excellent cast of accomplished English actors of the period, I always thought it ironic that Harris an Irishman from Limerick and educated by the Jesuits would be cast to play a Englishman whose name is almost a cuss word in Ireland. While as a Historical Movie it is way above many others as to accuracy it does take some liabilities as to who said what, but it does get most of it right and it explains some of the idiosyncratic traditions around the Kings opening of Parliament.
You mean the movie "Cromwell". It is very good.
@@redmoonfilms Thanks of course I did I carried the error over from Beau, corrected it.
Yes, it's a very good film indeed.
Highly historically inaccurate.
Is it herein UA-cam?
If not, tis a shame. For Life of Brian is. This isn't that though. ua-cam.com/video/o2WfCn0tCJw/v-deo.html
8:00 Calvin is spot on with this. we need to focus on what we have in common more than what divides us. While surely some things are good and correct and others are... not, and it's certainly possible for some sect or other to believe some real heresy (which is a label i don't think we should use lightly), I think that anyone genuinely seeking out God has his soul in the right place, even if the backwardness of his theology needs some correcting. I've attended both protestant and catholic ceremonies and have certainly felt the presence of God in both. we should take time to remember that we're squabbling brothers, not bitter enemies.
I live a secular life, coming from a background of traditional Catholic/protestant Jewish come Muslim, yes its complicated being a cockney lol my people left it to me to find my path, at 66 still seeking but I will defend any rights that do not infringe upon mine...
I'm so, so glad we're seeing more of Beau. He's by far my favourite member of the team.
4:30 On this note, just go back to the Old Testament and read about the design off the temple in Jerusalem and the Arc, and then tell me it's indulgent to have awe inspiring churches. And that was God's design.
When I went to Rome and saw Saint Peter's Basilica my main thought was - if you would convert to Catholicism anywhere, this would be the place. It is the most beautiful church I have seen in my life. And I have seen a fair share of churches through my travels around Europe. Simplicity can be nice, but I would be lying if I ever claimed the gorgeous Catholic churches didn't tingle me and make the church-going experience just a little bit better.
I am an Eastern Orthodox Christian, and I am glad to see Father Calvin is not part of the woke established Anglican Church. I am glad he sees that the Protestants, while correct to be opposed to overbearing Papism, have completely over-corrected by throwing tradition out of the window. In our Church, we don't have the Pope as the head of the Church, and we don't even have our Ecumenical Patriarch as head of the Church, we have Christ at the head of the Church. I think Father Calvin would be a great fit for the Orthodox Church, but I understand the Orthodox Church might be a little bit foreign for most people in Britain.

Father Calvin should just join the Orthodox Church and get it over with. I think he will feel very welcome and at home there.
I’m Protestant and have no time for mere earthly priesthood which Christ abolished. There is no more sacrifice, “ it is finished “ . There is no need for alters and incense and the superstition of making the sign of the cross .
1 Peter 2:9 But you are “a chosen race, a royal PRIESTHOOD, a holy nation, a people claimed by God as his own possession,”
The argument for having gold and beauty in church is not just that it’s nice and inspires awe, but God Himself directed for lots of gold and bronze and color in His Temple. So, clearly God has no problem with those things.
In all fairness, the cofe’s via media is not a middle ground between Rome and Geneva, but between Geneva and Zurich. Bear in mind Thomas Cartwright was advocating for Presbyterian polity in the court of HM Elizabeth I.
The cofe was very, very nearly Presbyterian - easy to forget now.
Also, there were royalist puritans, and puritans who were very happy with aesthetics. It is common now in the dissident right to speak badly of puritans; I’m thinking specifically of that terribly basic take of Doyle and Starkey, re woke as the ‘new puritans’. It’s historically ill informed and politically ill fitting, disproven by a cursory reading of any major English puritan. Go and read pilgrim’s progress, which shaped Anglican piety as much as any other text of devotion. (Her Late Majesty EII read from it in her first Christmas broadcast.) If the stereotype of the dour, whitewashed puritan is true, then why do the archetypal puritan characters dance? Why do they sing? Why do look at Christian art? That’s your first sign that we’re not engaging with real history here. The second will come in the form of their original works. Id heartily recommend Watson’s doctrine of repentance, Owen’s Communion With God, Bayly’s Practice of Piety, and Scougal’s Life With God.
How about just Romans 5 and/or Hebrews 10 plus.... Always adding to the Word {shrug}
@NathanLPaylor - I'd also heartily recommend Paradise Lost by the great Puritan poet John Milton.
I find all of this fascinating because in America conservatives love the Puritans. We see them as fundamental to our cultural heritage.
Man. I miss Father Calvin’s fro.
Wherever the bishop appears, there let the people be; as wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church - St Ignatius of Antioch 105 AD.
So when can the Catholics have their Cathedrals back?
It depends. How much tea do you have and who's your dealer?
More importantly: Will protestants realize that they were in part correct and see that the Catholics fixed the problems they complained about and come back to the mother church?
@@TchHry no, the pope is a woke ņőņćĕ
@@TchHry When did Catholics get rid of the Pope?
@@TchHry catholics still fancy mother Mary way too much and the practice of asking dead to pray for you seems to get twisted way too often into praying to the dead saints as if one would pray to God.
I have a ton of respect for my High Anglican brothers and sisters, as I grew up in a very Anglo-Catholic parish in the Deep South. Once I saw even my extremely conservative parish get straddled with a priest giving DEI masses and blaspheming, I went on a journey that led me to the history of the Oxford Movement, St. John Henry Newman, and inevitably to Rome. I pray that one day my Anglo-Catholic brothers and sisters can be reunited in communion with Rome. Anglican Ordinariate parishes are a jewel of the Catholic Church in the english speaking world. Sadly they are few in number. I pray one day they’re common and full of former Protestants like myself that have returned home. I was so ashamed at how the Ordianiate in London treated Fr. Calvin a few years ago. It was a great opportunity lost because of the pride of a liberal priest. Hopefully they reconcile in the future. God bless all
“The Catholic’s erred!” Which denomination hasn’t Calvin. Let us not forget the teaching of the splinter in the eye...!
The Revd Calvin Robinson does not appear to believe in Anglican Orders as he seems to have obtained his priestly ordination from the Nordic Catholic Church.
The C in CofE now stands for Club.
AY UP LOTUS EATER'S
Its Neo-Calvinism!
Ba'dom tish
He’s pretty much Catholic in his beliefs, including Mary worship.
Below I do apologise for the many typos!!!
and what superstitions are we on about?
Calvin, since you're Anglican and orthodox, as I am, I've no wish to argue with you on matters I think less important ...But I would remind you that the first Tractarian leaders were not "high" in the sense of pushing ceremonial. Nor are Protestants averse to the term "Catholic", although they dislike Roman attempts to appropriate the term when many of Rome's characteristic positions are ones the NT and Primitive Church would not have recognised.
I do like the more High Church Protestantism rather than the Puritan church model as well.
Have a lot of respect for Calvin as he fearlessly speaks out about wokery etc in the C of E - BUT feel he is wrong to be embracing Anglo-Catholicism. I gather that her likes all the trappings of the Catholic Church - NONE of which the the early Christian’s had - Paul and Peter and James and John had!! Even Jesus Himself lived a simple life and held the last supper in a simple room with a simple table! Services and preaching and teaching took place in people’s homes a rosaries and statues did It exist!! So the Puritans and reformed churches have dropped all this business of satisfying the senses and making people feel they are experiencing something if God …. To focus on satisfying the hungry soul of the believer who desires to feed on the Word of God and remember His death in a simple way - and not be distracted but unbiblical additions. Never heard of Paul saying the rosary - but from what I have heard Calvin say, he does.
Gosh, who would have known that the ACNA was that significant. And that the universal Catholic Church (given here as the 'Roman' Catholics) had erred and had to be corrected by the ACNA. :D
Please become Orthodox Christian. It is the ancient and unchanged faith of Jesus Christ. ☦️
Western rite can be an option if he wants tbe ango saxson heritage.
Only on the condition that the Russian Orthodox☦ church is an example of acceptable political religious entanglements. I have to preface with: "give on to God what it God's" but (without exclusion of) also "give onto Caesar what is Caesar" and if that "Caesar" also be a member of the church
👑😇, may the Orthodox gain political power in/out Europe once again❗
I will not "separate church from state" (FYI the quote is not apart of the American constitutional literal reading). May God gain government agents and those agents act with respect of the peoples --likewise: a secular scientist 😷should respect the choice of a religious person to see that blockading churches was immoral💉 and against individual freedom/law (no matter what the "Science" says).

_"There's a great film, 'Oliver', about Oliver Cromwell..."_ - I think people seeking out 'Oliver' might find themselves watching a different film! Maybe try 'Cromwell'.
Exactly. When he said Oliver I immediately thought of an orange kitten in New York.
I take the opposite position from this new Calvinism - as an Anglican, I see myself as both Catholic and “Puritan”. #whynotboth
I'm a former General Baptist with a strong background in nondenominational Protestant fundamentalism. On many points, my theology is virtually the opposite of what Robinson's is. He's a Calvinist, whereas I'm an Arminian-Molinist. He prefers high-church congregations, whereas I prefer low-church congregations. He's an episcopalian, whereas I'm a congregationalist. He's a pedobaptist, whereas I'm a credobaptist. He is respectful of Roman Catholicism, whereas I strongly dislike Romanism and Popery. However, on the important points - the Trinity, the virgin birth of Jesus, the crucifixion of Christ - we agree. We also agree that Occidental Christianity has become theologically and culturally liberal and we think Christianity should play a bigger role in society. As a Protestant integralist, I think conservative Protestant denominations should work together to reintroduce biblical morality into our respective nations.
Why do all Baptist hate us Catholics….. seems like John Calvin planted that hate when he separated.
"just because they err'd..."
Ok. It's comforting to know that someone figured out the one true way to be Christian. The apostles couldn't even suss that out, but you know, let's all continue to argue about it and stuff.
I'm a Reformed Christian. I think Calvin has got some good points here. There should be a hierarchy of theological points to value. If the Gospel message is expressed truthfully by a church then that should be our Number 1 concern. Everything else is secondary and needs to align with scripture and the gospel. I wish there was a way to rectify the barriers that separate true believers between the different denominations. A reunification of the denominations to make clear where the true church is would be a great blessing. Let's pray that this can happen, God's will be done.
How can there be unity when one denies the imputed righteousness of Christ ( Council of Trent),and declares it anathema?
I am Sydney Anglican and we are Gafcon, but I usually have to tell people that I would not go to an Anglican church outside of Sydney, many of the are too high church a the expense of the gospel and put people in positions of leadership that care more about ritual than the work of the Holy spirit
PLEASE COME HOME TO THE FULLNESS OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH ⛪ MARY AWAITS YOU ALL I DID NEVER LOOKED BACK
And you wonder why people think you worship Mary.
There is no Saint Peter at the gates nor Saints interceding on your behalf before God. Jesus Christ alone is our mediator. By his death and resurrection the communion of saints (those who follow his word on this earthly realm) will be at one with him just as the one God is three beings now and forever, world without end. Amen.
I am very glad to know that there are some in the Anglican Communion trying to seek the old paths. However, I strongly dissent from the speakers' characterization of the Puritans. My advice to anyone who thinks the Puritans were just a bunch of dreary roundhead prudes would be to *read* the Puritans. Read Richard Sibbes "The Bruised Reed," or Thomas Goodwin's "Christ Set Forth." These men had a deep experiential faith in Jesus Christ, not distracted by high forms of liturgy. These "smells and bells" delight the mind because they seem very antique and holy, but at the end of the day, what is the difference between a censer and a smoke machine? Perhaps for once we should not ask how we want to worship God but ask how He would like to be worshiped. The golden adornments of the tabernacle and temple existed to show Old Covenant believers types and shadows of the spiritual realities that we have as New Covenant believers. Do not allow your worship of God to be distracted by things which only delight the flesh.
The hair has returned !
I don't think the choice of interior/exterior design of a church is as important as the intended meaning behind that choice. A group of believers may decide to invest in a rich and beautiful church building as an act of worship to God, but a different group might do the same as an act of vain self-exaltation. Likewise, a group of believers might go for a much simpler, cheaper church building to express humility, but another group might do the same as an act of laziness and apathy towards worship. God sees what is in peoples' hearts and does not judge solely by outward appearance.
And what about the deliberately ugly?
@@WiggaMachiavelli What purpose do they have to spend effort making their building more ugly?
It was the Church in England not the church of England. All the ostensible reasons historic protestants justified themselves, muh accretions, some form of successionism, etc, have all fallen by the wayside.

The reformation was about ego, greed and power. The usual human traits.
Henry created his own church supremacy, by creating the Church of England.
The church remained Catholic, and Henry raised his children in Catholicism. He left instructions for the children to continue to be raised Catholic.
The CofE remains Catholic. The rituals are the same, save for the wine and bread, which for some reason, do not physically turn into Jesus body and his blood, in the CE which apparently it does in Rome!
No Catholic has ever been able to explain to me what is meant by the bread and wine turning into the body and blood of Christ. It is clear to me that Jesus was just giving his disciples a little ritual to remember him by.
The Anglican Church should unite with The Coptic Orthodox Church🙏😊
I love my Anglican and RC brothers and sisters. The Apostle's and Nicene Creeds join us on the fundamentals and that is good enough for me.
I'm reluctant to listen to the opinion of a non Christian who possibly doesn't understand the reasons why some protestants still consider the Popes anti Christ. (Note two words there to mean "not in the ways of Christ.")
Many protestants were martyred before and after the reformation for their beliefs and this should not be blithely brushed over because our simple churches aren't beautiful and some puritans were nutters. Come on. Do a bit of homework.
All churches are to the glory of God. Protestants are more modest in their requirements and the RC churches are beautiful.

Wait, the Church of England broke away due to the King wanting to marry another woman and the pope would not give an annulment.
That's a very minor reason. Henry wanted to annull his marriage from Catherine, something that is normal for the pope to do. The protestants of the age had genuine complaints towards the church and therefore were the real driving force of the Church of England.

yes the Bishop Durham and all the apostates before and since are a massive Anglican embarrassment
7:09 I too think potpourri stinks.
I’m not sure Calvin is using the word apostasy in the correct context.
Apostasy is the abandonment of one’s belief and or faith.
The CofE haven’t abandoned their belief or faith as Calvin is stating.
They are simply discarding the dualist and exclusive doctrines which Jesus would not have recognised, for policies he would recognise, that of non dualism and inclusivity and oneness!
So sad to see so many egos at work within Christianity clambering for their truth to prevail.
The more time these people spend focusing on their ego, the more distant they are from the Devine and the more damage they are causing to the church.
No wonder people are leaving in droves!
I have a lot of time and respect for Rev. Calvin, however I can’t get my head around how he can claim apostolic succession when his branch of Christianity is already twice removed from the Catholic Church, not withstanding the fact that the Protestant church he split from (C of E) has never believed in the True Presence.
Ordination is a change in one ontology in service to Christ. Therefore a bishop remains a bishop always. A bishop ordained in one church can ordain a bishop in another church. Apostolic succession is bishop to bishop.
Don't just read the papal bull about Anglican ordination. Read also the refute from the archbishop's of Canterbury and York.
Also, the CofE recognises FCE ordinations and Fr Calvin could return to CofE if he wants to (or indeed any Anglican church).
To address the other points... CofE isn't Protestant it is Reformed Catholic and there is a difference.
Finally, Anglicans do believe in real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. How is a mystery and therefore transubstantiation is an explanation not found in scripture. Therefore we can only say with certainty that the real presence is of a spiritual nature. That doesn't make it any less of a real presence.
I hope these points help to understand the Anglican position (whether you agree with them or not).
@@notthatkindofanglican If the CofE is a "reformed Catholic Church" and not a Protestant one, why then did King Charles III had to take an oath to uphold the Protestant faith, is he not the Supreme Governor of the Church of England?
@@BelaMadeira Charles is bound to uphold both the Anglican faith and the Scottish Presbyterian church as constituted in the act of union 1707. Edward VI (or at least the regents at the time) did try to make the church of England more protestant as did Cromwell during the commonwealth. But neither succeeded. The church of England had always maintained there is one Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. But at the same time, since Henry VIII, the English church has not recognised the authority of the Roman bishop and that, along with non-reformed dogma, is where we do protest.
Welp, he's not Anglican anymore.
Rebaptize in case of transgender? Wow
And eventually we'll get back to the Biblical temple and away from any catholicism (universalism)
The Orthodox Church bases its ceremonies on the Temple in Jerusalem. interestingly enough.
The bishop of Rome decided to be head of the Western Church about the time of the Visigothic movement into Italy. It may have been desperation rather than vanity. They did not continually sack the country but tried to impose their rule mainly, so the Roman bishop tried to get along with them.though the Byzantine Imperial capital of N Italy was in Ravenna. ( An Ostrogothic king, Theoderic took over Ravenna and ruled there very competently by the way)
Byzantium at the time had the Metropolitan in Constantinople but he did not usually consider himself the head of the Orthodox Churches , and if he did there was trouble and he would be deposed. they did not consider the bishop of Rome head of the Church.
Wait does the English church or w/e answer to the pope?

all of us are conceived in sin and by nature can only work sin. the only thing considering that matters is grace is the only thing that can save us by faith, most protestants aversion to sin superficially is the ritualism and work akin to what pharisees who justified themselves supposedly by works, same with the Catholics and purgatory. adding works to gospel of free grace for salvation and heaping burdens on others necks hypocritically which is common unfortunately is why the pharisees were going to hell and sinners who understood how their works mean nothing were saved as their sins are eternally forgiven by that faith not in themselves. it's really eye opening that most people make the gospel about works which means you don't believe the gospel and cannot have eternal life until you repent by BELIEVING the true gospel and accept faith by grace
I absolutely adore Fr Calvin. Such a stand-up man.
Will the Masonic Novus Ordo counter-Church in Rome canonize this man ta fuk. FFS like!
He certainly is. He's like the grownup in every room he walks into. Gentle wisdom. A national treasure that hopefully will one day be recognized by the Brits.
I do not adore him because he is NOT God. He is a servant of God. i admire him and I bkess him. I am a Catholic.... a traditional one.
I've started thinking of Orthodox Iconography as a kind of pre medieval comic/graphic novel where the images and text tell the same story weaving back and forth. That is really cool.
I also quite like that the puritans gave us America, which is anything but bland and boring. The Pennsylvania settlers were so strict on usury that bankers had to create a national bank and backdoor it into Pennsylvania just to gain an eventual foothold.
Both have a tremendous amount of merit.
And what's your take on the so-called Mormons? 🤔 💭

Correction: When Pope Gregory sent his people to the Isles they discovered the Apostolic church was already there - the Celtic Expression. That's always been issue with Rome - it wants to dominate and take over. That's not the fruit of the Spirit.
Pope Adrian IV even authorized the Norman King to impose the Roman Rite Catholicism on the island of Ireland who practiced the Celtic form of Christianity that Patrick taught.
As a roman Catholic (American) who doesn't want to be a papist and feels disillusioned with the institutions from coronatarianism, Father Calvin pitch does seem appealing.
Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod!
Merry Christmas to all who read this from the United States!
Love these chats between beau and father clavin would love to see how they think about the eastern branches of Christianity
I take your point that you need an alter adorned with precious metals and jewels, but to the awakened these things are an anathema.
Such opulence whilst impressive was designed to show how rich and powerful the was (past tense)
As you stated recently Calvin, church are not built with such opulence and magnificence any longer. The gravy bait has run dry.
Can you honestly imagine Jesus endorsing such egocentric monument to self! Absolutely not.
The awakened don’t look externally to connect with the Devine, they simply connect - awaken - the Devine within!
They want to rebaptize? Blasphemy!
I like Father Robinson but if I had to choose a variety of Anglicanism I probably would go with the conservative evangelical version embodied by J.C. Ryle.
Do agree, It's not about whether it's Catholic or too Catholic but is it Christian substantiated in scripture itself. If there is anything people should take from this it's that.
2:23 are those three dolphins on his hat?
In my opinion Anglicanism and Eastern Orthodoxy are the best forms of Christianity.
As an Orthodox American I appreciate that and hope for all of Christ’s followers to be United to his One Holy Catholic and Apostolic (Orthodox) Church
The baptists churches are always the best, hence America.
One as bibletarded as the other.. No difference and the satanic juice penned the script after the RCC was founded by God whom was crucified in Rome btw.
@@hindenpeter2.04 Christ wasn’t crucified in Rome and the Catholic Church has long since evolved past the time of St Peter in ways that he did not intend hence why the Orthodox Church seeks to be as close to gods original plan as possible.

Based thumbnail.
Fr. Calvin is Anglican but Catholic in the tradition of Richard Hooker. Beauty in the Catholic tradition is adiaphora. So grateful to have found him in social media.
Richard who?
Look, Calvin isn't correct as he now claims his orders are,"recognized by Rome".
. What does he mean by "recognized"?
@@Kitiwake Richard Hooker was a contemporary of William Shakespeare. He wrote The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity in defence of Catholic worship. He wrote to oppose Puritans who wanted to destroy any trace of apostolic succession.
Do they use the KJV bible and traditional hymns.
I completely disagree about the lords supper uniting us with Christ. That stinks of Rome.
Amen, never at home in Rome!
I do not understand the Old Catholics. They are looking for everything that can be found in Orthodoxy, but the Fillioque. The liturgy in the Old Catholic tradition and the theology is only an approximation to Holy Orthodoxy. Why not go all the way? There are Orthodox churches in England, why not try to build an Orthodox Church of England? Something similar is happening in the USA, France and Germany at the moment. People are going back to the roots and the roots are not Old Catholic. The old Catholic approach reminds me of the saying "wash me, but don't make me wet". They want to go back to the roots, but not completely. Perhaps someone can explain this phenomenon to me.
Cal belongs to the church of his own hypocrisy, swinging his rosary beads in the "low" Free Church of England.
I interesting but just cant u derstand the catholic way complicated but respect it
If you remove the word Rome from before catholic that would be a start. Exactly as the old culdees did . Holy catholic
Christ,while on earth started one church, everything else is man made.
Sadly even what some consider the continuation of that church has been corrupted by man.
The anglican church is full of splits, that tells you all you need to know.
