 | | In Scotland, the Church of Scotland is recognised in law (Church of Scotland Act 1921) as the "national church" (although it is not "established" in the same manner as the Church of England, having fuller autonomy of governance). |  | | The Church of England's sister church in Ireland, the Church of Ireland, also went through the reformation in the 16th century at the behest of Ireland's English rulers. |  | | The Church of England is the officially established Christian church in England, and acts as the 'mother' and senior branch of the worldwide Anglican Communion, as well as a founding member of the Porvoo Communion. |

 | | The doctrine of the Church of England is found primarily in the Book of Common Prayer, containing the ancient creeds of undivided Christendom, and secondarily in the Thirty-nine Articles, which are interpreted in accordance with the prayer book. |  | | Church of England or Anglican Church, the Christian church in England, dating from the introduction of Christianity into that country. |  | | That both the Low Church Evangelical Revival and the High Church Oxford movement could develop within the Church of England illustrates the breadth and flexibility of the Anglican tradition of faith and practice, as does the very coexistence through the years of the Low Church and High Church tendencies. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Anglicanism |
 | | The members of the Church of England are professed Christians, and claim to be baptized members of the Church of Christ. |  | | By forming a catena of Anglican High Church divines of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries on one side, and a catena of certain Fathers on the other, it was hoped that a quasi-continuous chain of Catholic tradition could be made to connect the Anglican Church of their day with Catholic antiquity. |  | | They believe that the Church of England is a true and reformed part, or branch, or pair of provinces of the Catholic Church of Christ. |

 | | England also experienced the greatest wavering between the two religions as the monarchs of England passed from one religion to the next. |  | | Two major movements in England&emdash;the Wycliffite rebellion against the church in the fourteenth century (Wycliff was the first to translate the Bible into a vernacular language) and the spread of Northern humanism&emdash;prepared the foundations for English Protestantism. |  | | It was still for all practical purposes a Catholic church; the only real difference that anybody would notice was the use of English Bibles in the church. |

| | The Church of England |
 | | The Puritan emphasis on individualism, however, made the establishment of a national Presbyterian Church during the Interregnum impossible, and the Restoration of the Monarchy under Charles II in 1660 facilitated the re-establishment of the Anglican Church, purged of Puritans, who split into various dissenting factions. |  | | From the time of the Elizabethan settlement on, the Church of England (the Anglican Church) attempted, with varying degrees of success, to consolidate its position both as a distinctive middle way between Catholicism and Puritanism and as the national religion of England. |  | | Although the real authority of the Church diminished thereafter, evangelical fervor diminished as well, and there was a considerable movement of industrial wealth from the old Nonconformists to the established church. |

| | VirtueOnline-News - As Eye See It - Farewell, Church of England? - by Peter Mullen |
 | | The Church of England, on the other hand, is besotted with the normalization of sodomy (which has greatly infected the church), rarely speaks out (and never in a sustained way) against abortion, overrode the words of Christ (you know, the Son of God) years ago and stopped condemning divorce. |  | | Only one thing could possibly save the Church of England from its slow, tortured demise into faithlessness, irrelevancy and sin (like ECUSA), and that is: to proclaim the world of God and the Gospel of Christ unabashed and unafraid to a debauched and sin-filled world. |  | | What are the odds of hearing a sermon on an average Sunday in the Church of England attacking the prevalence of sexual sin, sodomy, abortion, divorce, motherless and fatherless children, the watering down of the words of Christ, the pornographication of society, etc. etc. |

 | | I believe that the Church of England serves its purpose as a weakened, ineffectual strain in a religion immunization. |  | | Now, the Church of England is the official religion of the country, and is therefore endorsed by the Queen (likewise regarded as somewhat anachronistic these days) and the officials in Government. |  | | So, perhaps it is time to reassess the role of the Church of England in the modern world, and the most important role I see it playing in the 21st century is as a protective against religion taking an effective hold on Britain. |

 | | The Free Church of England arose due to the Dr Philpotts, Bishop of Exeter withdrawing the licence of the Revd James Shore, a successful evangelical curate of ten years standing in Bridgetown. |  | | In 1876, the Free Church of England received its orders from the Reformed Episcopal Church which originated when the Rt Rev George Cummings withdrew from the Protestant Episcopal Church in 1873. |  | | This naturally aroused Cummins' resentment, but the last straw was furnished by the criticism aroused by his receiving Communion and preaching in a non-Episcopalian Church in New York City on October 12, 1873. |
