- Notes
- "I was somewhat surprised and then perturbed when I opened the Jan. 2013 'Anglican Journal' and was confronted by an insert urging 'Saint Brother Andre, pray for us'. "[T]he inclusion of this misleading, sentimental advertisement is an insult to our collective intelligence and an affront to our doctrinal integrity. It is absolutely contrary to what we profess to believe. I was taught, 'There is one God, and one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus' (1 Tim. 2:5). I have never found it necessary or even desirable to employ a middleman, and to even think that Anglicans would buy into this tawdry stuff is questionable. For how many pieces of silver did we sell our doctrinal integrity ?"
