We looked last time as regard those who want to change how we address God,borne out by people who are trying to go along with the worlds confusing concepts,instead of standing fast for the truth as revealed in God's word. As I look at the broader picture of the church in this country, many are acting as if they are a law unto themselves. Many ignore established truths,they act as if they alone are the church of Christ, and reject the historical truths that the Bible proclaims. The church of England or the Anglian church is not the church in England, it is only another branch of the church in England, All branches should be striving to hold fast to what the whole of the Bible teaches, Early creeds are been cast off,as M L. Jones writes,These creeds were written and elaborated,not merely to make positive statements of the faith, but to counteract certain heresies'.Now it is obvious that the different branches have different opinions about certain things ,that's not a problem ,as long as we recognise as ML.Jones puts it ,'that there are foundational and secondary truths.' We should not get to worked up about secondary truths,although they are important to us, but unfortunately, people do ,sad to say.what we need to contend for and hold fast to, are foundational truths.
