The Episcopal Church In The USA Going Towards Demise

By Malgwyn | December 29, 2009

The Episcopal Church is winding down in America. Winding down in numbers: from 3.5 million in 1965 to 2 million today - “that’s a 43 percent drop from a year when the United States had about half as many people as it does today” - on the rolls that is. Attendance figures are considered to be about 800,000.
It is not entirely due to the ordination of a Gay Bishop, a theological drift over the last 40 years as also been see as contributing factors, notably the denial of the resurrection, the substitutionary atonement of Christ, the authority of the Scripture and the Virgin Birth. But “don’t grieve the demise of the Episcopal Church,” says Crosswalk. “God has preserved a remnant. And the coming together of the various “continuing Anglican” churches under the ACNA organizational structure is one of the major religious developments of this year, a development what will likely resonate for many years to come.” According to Crosswalk it appears churches holding to the traditional teachings of the Bible fare better than churches with liberal leanings.
