Australian Anglican Church splits after 'going too far to the Left'

- Sky News host Andrew Bolt says something dramatic has happened in the Anglican Church - a faith ten per cent of Australians believe in.
“A lot of Anglicans have thought their church has gone too far to the Left too - not just here but overseas,” he said.
“And some last week broke away and set up their own, called the Diocese of the Southern Cross.”
Mr Bolt said the sect swore in former Anglican Archbishop of Sydney Glenn Davies as their first bishop.
He discussed the issue with Anglican priest and Institute for Spiritual Awareness Director Father Mark Durie.
I left the Anglican church years ago because they started "Blessing" same sex unions and promising to honour same sex marriage and even participated in several in my Parish. Our female vicar presided over a same sex marriage and I told her I could no longer respect her Biblical teaching or preaching. I also have a dim view of a female being a "priest". It is not Biblical. I packed up my music gear and handed in my resignation and went to another church that respects and follows The Bible, not the woke mob.
Wangaratta Anglican church has 2 'married' men as priests. There was an article in the local paper about how tolerant and accepting that union is. Pffft!
Can women be ordained to the priesthood? This is a question that provokes much debate in our modern world, but it is one to which the Church has always answered “No.” The basis for the Church’s teaching on ordination is found in the New Testament as well as in the writings of the Church Fathers.
While women could publicly pray and prophesy in church (1 Cor. 11:1-16), they could not teach or have authority over a man (1 Tim. 2:11-14), since these were two essential functions of the clergy. Nor could women publicly question or challenge the teaching of the clergy (1 Cor. 14:34-38).
@@richlopez5896 I agree. Our presiding priest was a man but had a newly ordained female priest as a resident.
We also had a female Bishop who was responsible for pushing lgbtq acceptance at the synod meeting. She gave a highly passionate and emotional speech which used all the societal buzz words but no Biblical foundation. At that point, I was halfway out the door.
No Brainier. Yes The bible is clear to the born again believer
That is the way to go…
The U.K. has the same problem, with the arch bishop and bishops are so out of step with the majority of their congregations
jesus said "whoever does not gather with me scatters". we need to be in touch with Jesus and in so doing we are in the will of God. being "in touch" with people means nothing left undefined by biblical information. division comes from "the flesh" human sinful nature. The Spirit of god gives unity . "let us keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace"
It would not matter if they were 'in step' with the majority of the people, and the majority gave assent (which I think might be closer to the truth) they would STILL be out of step with, and therefore enemies of, God and Christ.
Not my Circus, not my monkeys.
Church is for retarded people, cry more.
As someone who has done work for churches and witnessed the behind the scenes workings, I have come to the conclusion that most of today's churches are nothing more than a business exploiting the faith of its congregation.
One should not confuse the church with faith in God. That's not to say that one shouldn't attend a church. But one should be highly cautious of a church that is becoming political.
And this is sad because it means the laymen are more aware of God's word than the religious leaders. So why have them?
I once was familiar with a Missouri Synod Lutheran Church. About half of the people got tired of the traditional teachings and forced the rest of the church to change to a more liberal synod. The conservative half left. About two years later, the liberal half that stayed, wanted more liberal changes. About half of those people left, and for the liberals
who stayed, they wanted still more liberal changes. More people left. Soon there was no one left to keep the lights on. The church "woke" itself into closing. I saw this very same thing happen in a Presbyterian church too.
God is in the business of closing down churches too - when they no longer reflect the purity of his word, not just starting them. A good reference to this are the letters in Revelation to the major churches at the time , particularly where he says to one that he will take out the candle stick. After that , if the church survives in any form, it is no longer representational of the Christian faith.
Which baptism is a part of the salvation process, based on what the Bible says?
What did Peter say below?
Acts 11:15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.
Acts 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
Act 11:17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?
Based on Luke 3:16, and John 1:33, and Acts 11:15-16, the most important thing about the word "baptize" in the New Testament has nothing to do with water. The Holy Spirit is the master teacher promised to New Covenant believers in Jeremiah 31:34, and John 14:26, and is found fulfilled in Ephesians 1:13, and 1 John 2:27. Unfortunately, many modern Christians see water when they read the word "baptize" in the text. Based on the above, what is the one baptism of our faith found in the passage below? How many times is the word "Spirit" found in the passage, and how many times is the word "water" found in the passage?
Eph 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
Eph 4:2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
Eph 4:3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
“baptize” KJV
Mat_3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Mar_1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
Luk_3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
Joh_1:26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
Joh_1:33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
Actually, this has occurred in congregations across the religious spectrum of the institutional assemblies. I know of several that used to be what were called 'evangelical' but they have found their way into abomination as well. The church in the end days will be religious expression rather than a redemption message. Jesus wondered when He returned, would He even find faith amongst what we call the church.
Satan at work
@@twiektwiek32 Yes, with willing accomplices in the children of men. They are making decisions based on their proclivities and they are every bit in the darkness they claim to preach against. God says and Jude writes: But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.
Can't see how difficult it can be, either follow God, or follow man. Can't do both.
FACTS!
No man can serve two masters: for either he
will hate the one, and love the other; or else
he will hold to the one, and despise the other,
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Very true comment. Then there are those who say they follow God and then align themselves with a human political party. Then they try to justify it.

The Anglican Church was only created because Henrey the 8th couldn't get a divorce. he wanted. Do you want to disagree?

My father was an Anglican priest who was ostracised and pushed out of his ministry in the mid 80's for his conservative views and wanting to preach the bible as it was written!
Was so sad to watch as it really broke him as a man but didn't break his faith and has now gone to god for eternal life!

He should have switched to a nasty Fundy church then! The whole point of Anglicanism is to be the freethinking folks' no-doctrine church, of William Temple, David Jenkins, Richard Holloway.
Yes it is so sad when old ideas die out.i myself was heart broken when cannibalism became frowned on,then slavery was abolished and no we are not supposed to persecute and devalue minorities..what a barstard..after all women and queers and non believers were religions favourite targets and still are..good riddance to these type of religious nuts..nise to hear he has passed away..sounds a real miserable piece of work

This will happen in all denominations soon. They will have to decide whether to follow Christ or the world.
Not Christ he was the messenger and a lot of the Bible has been warped with political agendas since its inception.
Yep
The time draws nigh..
The Uniting Church Australia is one of the worst offenders. But it is a good way to identify apostate churches - all the apostates support same sex marriage, having women ministers/priests is another give away.

Agree. The progressive idea is very out of place for Christian setting, to the point of bordering to blasphemy
Jesus Christ didn't come to bring peace. If you truly follow Christ and speak the truth to the world you'll be persecuted. " If the world hates you, remember they hated Me first." Be in the world, not of it. Love is being twisted and bent into being something depraved.

Disecting corpses was a sin in the 12th Century. Do you reject all of modern medicine based on its emergence from the historically sinful practice of corpse disection, which is the source of all the anatomical knowledge that modern medicine is dependent on? Or are you a hypocrite who only follows the 12th Century definition of sin when it allows you to persecute the gays and other groups you don't like?

I came to Australia 20 years ago and found the Anglican church more interested in money and being all-inclusive and was against traditional conservative Christians, I have been to many Anglican churches here in Australia and have found many to be not welcoming and it is not just the Anglican church.

@@Westyrulz Blessed are you when men insult you, persecute you & speak all manner of evil things about you for my name's sake' (Matthew 5:11 - Jesus speaking)
How can you be all inclusive and not welcoming at the same time. Isn't love thy neighbour unconditional? That's what they mean by "left leaning" isn't it?
Same here for the United Methodist Church and many of us are leaving it because we will NOT accept what is happening with wokeness. And the UMC is making it quite difficult although they outwardly say otherwise. They’re penalizing us in many ways and deadline messages are not being sent in a timely manner and the cutoff dates are designed for them to keep assets or us pay penalties. Our Bishop is gay. She’s making a mockery of God’s word and it is so sad. My great grandparents and grandparents and father would turn over in their graves if they knew how depraved the doctrine they are actually asking us to accept is and it isn’t simply a matter of homosexuality. It’s much darker than that.
Maybe you are in the wrong religion. Wasn't the New Testament a progressive interpretation of the Old Testament? That's how it seems to me.
Karen Oliveto is the homosexual Bishop. I am in the Virginia Conference and I will move to the Global Methodist Church when it comes. I think John Wesley is spinning too.

Yes, the Old and New Testaments condemn homosexual behavior. It's better to stick with the Bible and do what is pleasing to the Father, than to blend in with the world.

Hope you're ready to give up your wealth to the sick and poor
@@whatoh3407 Salvation in Christ, through having faith in him, is the emphasis of Christianity. Other things are secondary to that major mission. Not saying we are not to help the sick and poor for sure, but we are not really helping people if we do not keep the Gospel of Salvation central. The best way to get out of poverty in this life, is to gain the wisdom and help that God Himself gives to people who accept Christ and his word. Biblical commands and precepts save people from much folly in life, which will keep people from poverty, if they are followed. Most people go to churches for hand outs, but have no interest in being a part of the household of God and obeying Him. So your little remark is a mark of ignorance concerning the faith, but you are not alone in that, unfortunately, and that influences other people not to understand what true Christianity is.
@@gordoncrawley5826 lmao ass-backwards way is thinking. A good way to keep the poor in place. Poor people need money, they don't need faith. This is the real world and there's nothing after it.

1 John 3:17 But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?
Matthew 19:21 Jesus said to him, “If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Luke 21:1-4 Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the offering box, and he saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins. And he said, “Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”
Imagine if pro-football players made up their own rules, ignoring the play book, as these denominations have done with the teaching of the Christian

That's the point. The difference is the football players don't get shamed and called bigoted for sticking what isn't ours to chnage.
@@Angrybogan The Anglican churches in Africa are totally correct. The Bible is the Christian manual and it clearly states that marriage is between a man and a woman. Same sex relations are condemned in both the Old and New testaments. The Anglican church in the West and in Australia is focusing on the agenda of man rather than the word of God.
@@Angrybogan U know what good managers in football do to players who dont follow their tactics they get rid of them. Dont u think God is tired of being mocked also an being told by people that claim to be Christian but dont want to stick with scripture but rather want to be conformed to be like the world how full of wrath do u think God will get much more than a manager when he finally says ive had enough.
The difference between a football playbook and the bible is authority outside of the playbook. In the Protestant doctrine of bible-alone authority, there are no umpires or referees to decide who’s right or wrong. But the true Church that our Lord built has the umpire authority and the playbook. The playbook is the bible or Sacred Scripture and the Catechism. The umpire is the Church Magisterium, her teaching authority. The Protestant view is not practical. Why? Can the bible say who’s right? Is it the progressive or the conservative Anglicans. But the Holy Catholic Church can. It claims authority to interpret and teach the gospel that no Protestants dare to claim.
About time!, the church has become a political organisation and forgotten their first love.
no building is holy on this earth. the "church" was always political and never about God. All of these plastic catholic churches are the same.

That happened to the Presbyterian Church in America. The heads of the church got so out of whack with the parishioners that we split, Anyone is welcome in our church but they will not be told that doing sinful things that is not sinful.
It’s helpful to go to a churches website to see if they are PCUSA or PCA, which is the conservative offshoot. I happily found a PCA church near me with a heavy Asian (Korean) population of which I am not. Breath of fresh air.
It’s the same in the United Methodist Church as well. The hierarchy is actively out to destroy conservative strongholds.
PCA and PCUSA are two different animals. PCUSA has gone full on progressive. While I consider PCA somewhat liberal, it's conservative when held up against PCUSA which rejected the gospel a century ago.
Hold to the authority of the Bible, well imagine that, following what the actual Word of God says in the Bible over those trying to manipulate and twist God's Word to suit their own agenda. Good for this Anglican group who left the majority
Have they really "broken away", or have they stayed true to the word of God???
Both, apparently.
As we said when Anglicans in the USA broke from ECUSA, we kept the faith, they kept the buildings.
What does ETERNITY represent? IT'S FOREVER!! IT`S A LONG TIME!!

JESUS CHRIST died for you and rose on the third day. HE did this so that you would be forgiven of your sins and have a relationship with God. If you REPENT from your sins (turn away from them) receive and trust in JESUS CHRIST, you will be forgiven by Him and you will be assured of ETERNAL LIFE!!! The Bible says that God will make you BORN AGAIN. He will give you a NEW heart and NEW desires. THAT'S THE TRUTH!!! Do this today, before you enter ETERNITY!!! Tomorrow can be too late!!!

If you read the story of Sodom properly, through a historical lense rather than a homophobic one, you'll find that God actually took offence with people in the city because they violated the ancient code of hospitality, not because of the homosexual means by which they did so. The concept of hospitality and the sacrosanctity of the guest-host relationship, known as ξενία _(xenía)_ among the Greeks, is ubiquitous in the ancient world, and its plainly apparent on reading the story of Sodom through a Classical lense that it's this lack of respect for divinely ordained hospitality that provoked God's cataclysmic wrath against the city.
@@michaelheliotis5279 Errr, ummm, NO. Unless I also misread Leviticus 20:13: “If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death." Although Ezekiel points out sodomy was not the only crime of Sodom. "Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good."
Sounds just like San Francisco to me.
I am in the process of becoming Catholic. The Anglican Church has become humanist and abandoned the teachings of Christ.

I'm not religious at all and I support the break away. I'm conservative and I don't support this new world order.
I'm not religious either. I'm a christian though. Its relationship that counts
@@DW_Kiwi Yes, you are religious. So following the bible is not religious?? You care conflating religiousness with rituals and the rest of it.
Sometimes the statement "I am not religious" means that that person is a Christian (or fill in the blank) who doesn't attend/belong to an organized church (or fill in the blank). Some people believe that to be unnecessary to express and live their faith.
Here in America, I don't believe any of the major media outlets would cover this. Maybe Fox News but I'm not sure. Stay strong Sky News Australia!
The Anglican Church was only created because Henrey the 8th couldn't get a divorce. he wanted. Do you want to disagree?
@@David_Beames The Anglican Church and all other Churches that split from the larger Churches are a travesty and are one of the biggest reasons why Christianity was eroded beyond redemption. Christians must unite or die out with a whimper. There is no other religion as fractured as modern Christianity. We must reclaim the vision of a United Church, God willing.
@@the_kimchi_kommandant2603 So which is the right Christian church?
Could be the biggest division of the Church of England since Methodism during the Wesleyan/Whitefield revivals! Funnily enough, the ecclesiastical politics is similar too (although far more liberal than the mid 1700's!)
In the 1700's it was not Liberal vs Conservatives, it was Biblical vs Man made doctrine and legality. Yeshua\Jesus never gave ownership of HIS Church to a Religious Organization, Monarchy or Government, or to anyone, to manipulate & twist HIS Word into man made doctrines which were used to dictate fear, or power over the people. However, in recent times, the same freedoms that were fought for and HIS Word are being twisted and manipulated by entities who are using it to justify behavior which are condemned by GOD. The Leaders of this movement need to remember the Words of Our Lord when He warned... that it would be better for a man(or woman) to be thrown into the sea with a mill stone tied to his neck, than to face the wrath of GOD for leading even one of His children astray.

Come back to the one true faith, the Catholic Church.
. The church of pagan Rome is SATAN'S biggest deceit ; a masterful one.
It's not so much veering to the left or right, but holding to the truth of God's word and not compromising an inch.
What god fool.
The Pope recently appointed a LBGT Cardinal for the USA, seemingly in a rebuke to conservative American bishops. The question ' Is the Pope Catholic ' ? Now has to be answered in the negative.
Wow, I didn't know this! I'm going to look it up! This should be a game-changer for many Catholics as well...which I'm not, but just saying.
What is the name of this Cardinal?
When the church of pagan Rome does it, it is ok.
Saw this coming. There has been a struggle between conservatives and liberals in the Anglican Church for awhile. Just like has been between conservatives and liberals in larger western society which makes me wonder how much longer until we see a split in larger society, a much needed split.
It is reinvigorating indeed as Andrew said so. The beginning of the reformation of the Anglican movement. It is sad to see the Anglican Church head down the slippery slope of contradicting the Bible and even the millenia old teaching of the church, but let’s hope and pray for renewal through this.
EVERYTHING WOKE TURNS TO SHIT!
-MAGA KING DJ TRMP.
Yeah mate, you should start a Trump Church! Jim Jones all the way :)
Ah yes Trump - that paragon of Christian values. Not.
@A B True! The Climate Change religion is just a modern version of the worship of Mother Earth.
That was evident in the recent COP26 conference in Glasgow where there was a large earth globe hung from the roof in the center of the main hall, and one of the final scenes was of a large mechanical puppet (very well made, I must admit) looking up and holding her upstreached right hand towards the globe in worship.

The Anglican church has been splitting continuously since Henry VIII. My former Anglican priest, his Deacon, and several of his parishioners are in the process of converting to Orthodoxy. My husband and I had don't that years ago. It's nice to see them come home.
Yeah incredible how the religion of a lost king ends up becoming lost themselves.
“Coming home” would be going back to Catholicism but with how bad the current Pope is I can see Orthodoxy being more appealing
Wow! That's guts and obedience to take note of
Good to see some positive things happening in the church. May The LORD be exalted throughout the whole earth!
About time. I left the woke Anglicans a few years ago and I have never felt more spiritually happy!
Take the next logical step and walk away from religion entirely. There's no proof of anything. It's all faith, and all the faith in the world adds up to exactly zero.
Well,its been my belief for a while now that our problems arent political,environmental
Racial or social.our problems are spiritual,mankind has become proud and boastful thinking we can solve our problems when in all reality God and His word and the compliance of it is the answer,and sadly most our populations including many denominations and churches have fallen to the wayside of disobedience

@@juliablom3461 thank you
Great comment. At the heart of both Wokism and it's parent Marxism is a war against the Bible and it's moral teachings. They are loudly and aggressively rejecting God and his message to humanity. It is "America's" response to Jonathan Chan's warning message from God, the signs of which began with 9/11. The Bible says that truth is absolute and defined by God. The Woke say no, truth is my truth so I can believe what ever I want, which of course is a path to delusion. Deny the facts of our existence, at your peril.
👏
For all its issues the Catholic church has endured for 2 millenia and stands strong today. Come home brothers and sisters. Our doors are open.
God Bless Them For Walking Away.
The Bible instructs us explicitly when we see such abominations, to walk away. We have and many are.

Ecclesiastes 10:2 The heart of a wise man leans to the right. The heart of a fool leans to the left.
Nothing like ignorance in quoting biblical text thinking it says what you want it to say when it fact it doesn’t mean that at all. Ecclesiastes 9:13 and on to 10:20 is about wisdom and foolishness. Different translations and wording mean the intent of that quote is not left and right it is about sensible thoughts leading you to do right and foolish thoughts leading you to do wrong. Go read Ecclesiastes 10:13

I was brought up an Anglican (Church of England then) and I have watched it almost disintegrate over the decades. Many knock the Pentecostal/Charismatic movement, but at least they are enthusiastic about their worship. It has its problems too, but unlike the Anglican church, it is not lukewarm.

We have a Lutheran church in my city in Canada that flies the pride flag. They encourage divorce no matter the circumstances. They don't follow christ and they're parking lot is filled. It's scary.
I’m Anglican and my church is split off and is the ACNA and we believe in the absolute authority of God as outlined in the Bible.
The splitting up of denominations is going on in every country and all over the world.
God is winnowing the wheat from the chaff. Do not worry about this, just keep reading and obeying the Bible.
The human mind is easily deceived. Satan is not stupid he uses sex lust, and greed to move people away from God.
Who cares about money and gaudy buildings when you have the Great Creator God.
The Bible predicted a great falling away and this is probably the beginning.
I say, pray for these lost souls.
The Bible is pretty clear about most things in life. If a church is making up its own rules along the way then it should not be called a Church of the God of Isreal.
Yeah they must of just gotten sick of having to slaughter all those homosexuals.
The same is happening within the Lutheran Church… it is clear that the main Lutheran denomination in the US, the ELCA, has lost the plot or is on the verge of doing so. This certainly puts a different light on the sudden turnover among the pastoral staff at my church.
The Bible doesn't change. Rewriting the Bible to meet your or current society trends is simply writing your own beliefs, which is not the Bible. You hold to the Bible, not just bits and pieces of it, throwing out the rest and then filling in anything that supports your desires. Such a book of your faith is not the Bible.
That’s exactly what the Protestant reformation did lol
Following the word of God is the only way you can be a true Christian. You don't get to change the teachings of Jesus and the Ten Commandments.
Some of their churches only have seniors attending. It's struggling a lot more that they admit
You don’t split you cast the non believers out and shun them.

But let's forget about all the little boys homosexually assaulted in churches and their related institutions.
The falling away comes to mind
Anglican Church in Nigeria broke away a long time ago from the Church in Canterbury.
The authority of the Bible would be pretty important for a Church, surely? Or can the Church just delete parts to suit the current trends? And on whose authority would that be morally possible to do?
