It is sad to see so many Denominations compromising and falling away from Biblical teaching . We can debate and discuss those problems and pray for those Denominations. But we need to go further and try and find the root of all this.
Here is something i found on their website:
"The Church of England encourages people to use scripture, tradition and reason to come to a considered view on many subjects. Sometimes, after discussion and debate in the General Synod and elsewhere, national policies are agreed or, after consideration in councils, opinions are submitted."
They don't build on a Biblical foundation, they build on sand rather then on a solid Rock. As a result they will fall sooner or later.
Here is what the Early Church did :
Acts 2 v41 Then those who gladly[g] received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. 42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
They came together for teaching, fellowship, remembering the Lord and prayer. If we take anything away from this or add to it then we are getting onto sandy ground
And the Bereans "were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so." Acts 17v 11
Martin Loyd Jones mentions in one of his Sermons that in a true revival churches go back to the Biblical foundations we find in Acts.
Without true revival churches will continue to sink in sand.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
