"Invite everyone to the eucharist. Those who come and share are Anglicans in communion. Those who don't or won't are something else. That should settle the property disagreements too." -- S. Huston on her blog

FINALLY: If you comment, your words are yours to do with as you please, but I reserve the right to cite them in other contexts.
But won't it depend (sadly) on who issues the invitation?
ReplyDeleteBrian, I think Jesus was the one who issued the invitation to the eucharist, right?
ReplyDeleteWord Verification: mater--;)
This won't work. Because real Anglicans will happily share communion with non-Anglicans. It would seem a bit rude to insist that from henceforth our Methodist, RC, Baptist etc. friends should refer to themselves as Anglicans - albeit exactly what God would want :-)
ReplyDeleteKatie is correct. So we are in communion with whosoever joins us at the Lord's table.
