I am a Traditional Anglican Priest.
My parish is a Traditional Anglican Worship Community in the Anglo-Catholic Tradition. We fully believe that in the Holy Scriptures, the Catholic Creeds, the Lord's Sacraments and the Apostolic Succession, the essential Nature of Christ's Church is faithfully preserved, and that through them, the Catholic Religion is faithfully practiced.
In the mid-1970s the Protestant Episcopal Church, U.S.A. erupted in a series of doctrinal controversies that came to focus on the nature of Holy Orders and the Church's liturgy and worship. The "Fellowship of Concerned Churchmen" called for a Congress of Traditional Anglicans, which met in St. Louis in 1977.
From that historic meeting, came the "Affirmation of St. Louis" - our own Traditional Anglican "Magna Carta" - which outlines where we stand as Anglican Traditionalists.
Below is a link that historic document - as true today as it was almost 30 years ago!
When the Episcopal Church "ordained" their first women "priestesses" - we left.
More accurately, the Episcopal Church left the faith. We kept it alive.

ok...it was a journey....years of fellowships, and, after really looking at what I believe...I think I am closest to Presbytarian. I am a 5 point Calvinist. I believe in predestination, but I can be muddled by Limited Atonement. God is big and He knows who would choose a life with Him, so He set the course. So, free choice is still there, but He already has a seat with my name on it.

I am Roman Catholic. I don't have a sect, as RC are not set up that way. The principles - you'd have to check these web sites (see below).
I hope you get more help than harassment.
Good searching to you...

If all ways lead to God why did Jesus say he was the way and the path is wide that leads to destruction and the path is narrow that leads to Heaven? What kind of Theology is this you are studying? Just get a new pack of matches and forget it.

I am a conservative reformed Baptist Christian
I dont think Jesus would agree with you and dying for the sins of the world is allot of trouble to go to if it doesnt matter, eh?
Jesus said in Matthew "every plant my heavenly father did not plant will be pulled up by the roots" doesnt sound like all ways lead to God
I dont thank Atheists woul dagree that all ways lead to God either
in any case there is an interesting Poem that Ravi Zacharias likes to quote

I'll bet you burn money and flush food straight down the toilet to avoid the middle-man. That makes as much sense as studying something that isn't real.

member of the body of Christ and although I have often been asked to join this or that Christian organization, I have refused because the body is supposed to be in one accord and so small groups who make themselves in any way exclusive, different, ot superior are not practicing sound doctrine
