Archbishop Welby: Schism would be a failure, but not disaster – ACNS

The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby said this morning that a formal schism in the Anglican Communion would be a failure; but he told BBC Radio Four’s Today programme that such a scenario “would not be a disaster” because “God is bigger than our failures.”

  1. ‘……………in service to Jesus Christ; and to focus on, not only the issue of sexuality, but also the huge issues that are affecting people around the world: conflict, persecution, religious violence – those are also really important on the agenda.’
    These things are very important. But infinitely more important is the fact that those who are not Christians are facing the holy wrath and just condemnation of God because of Original Sin and their own sins. Should not the Church be united in warning about these eternal consequences and proclaiming the great salvation from them which Christ offers? Why does Welby not mention these infinitely more important things?
