| | Richard Hooker |
 | | Hooker’s starting-point is to accept unconditionally the disciplinarian premise that the doctrinal tenets and the pastoral aspirations of the Reformation had to be fulfilled in the polity of the Church of England. | | | Hooker approaches the question of episcopal government by examining the evidence of the Bible and the authority of the early Church fathers, historians and the decrees of the early Councils. | | | Of particular note is Hooker’s rejection of the Lutheran doctrine of the ubiquity or universal presence of Christ’s human nature and affirmation of the so-called doctrine of the extra-Calvinisticum whereby the distinctness of the human and divine natures in Christ and their respective characteristics is sharply defined. |

| | Richard Hooker (theologian) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Hooker argued that reason and experience (as well as tradition) were important when interpreting the Scriptures, and argued that it was important to recognise that the Bible was written in a particular historical context, in response to specific situations: "Words must be taken according to the matter whereof they are uttered." (Lawes IV.11.7). | | | In this he defended his belief in the Protestant doctrine of Justification by faith, but argued that even those who did not understand or accept this could be saved by God. | | | What was at stake behind such a seemingly theological argument was the position of the Queen as the head of the church. |

| | Theology Today - Vol 36, No. 4 - January 1980 - CRITIC'S CORNER - Richard Hooker as Theologian |
| | In Hooker's terms, the church is not an assembly but a society-one in which the attire of ministers is of less importance than participation, a participation he defines as "that mutual inward hold which Christ hath of us and we of him" (V,56.1). | | | Hooker's understanding of the authority of reason places him far closer to the Augustinian and Anselmian tradition of "faith seeking understanding" than to the rationalism with which he is sometimes branded. | | | Clearly the "reason" that Richard Hooker, one of the architects of Anglicanism, placed alongside Scripture and tradition as authoritative for theology was no disembodied eighteenth-century Reason. |

| | WHAT IS A PRIEST? Another Anglican View |
| | Theologians agree that all masculine pronouns, when used of God, are to be understood to mean not sexual but personal God is not a male but he is our personal God, not an it. | | | For over a century a strong tradition in Anglicanism has presented the credentials of a ministry in apostolic succession (quite narrowly defined) as the esse of the Church; that is, to be without it is not to be the Church. | | | The Anglican Articles of Religion and the Preface to the Ordinal omit any claim that our polity is enjoined in Scripture, or that it is the only valid form of Christian ministry, or even that it is the best form. |

| | Anglican Authority and Homosexuality |
| | Hooker wrote (more complexly than I am alluding to here) of Scripture, Tradition and Reason as a tri-fold set constituting authority in the new Anglican Church.. | | | Now Hooker meant by reason something different than what we in our post-Enlightenment age mean, but the unique feature was his addition of a "third thing" to the usual pillars of authority - the Bible and the traditional teachings of the church. | | | For Hooker this approach set Anglicanism off from authority as known in the Protestant and Catholic communities of his day. |

| | Richard Hooker, Doctor of the Church |
| | Hooker further compromised himself in Travers' Calvinist eyes by asserting that Roman Catholics could be saved as Roman Catholics, because that Church, though imperfect and erring in various ways, still held to Christ and the greater part of the foundations of Christianity, and so its faithful were excused by honest ignorance of the truth. | | | So in discussing the Puritan's construction of ecclesial institutions on scriptural models, Hooker points out that the words of scripture were written to address specific occasions and situations in the life of the church, and not as absolute rules. | | | Hooker's attitude to scripture was deeply nuanced by reason. |

| | Ethics Task Force Report |
| | Richard Hooker shaped the Anglican way by arguing that scripture, tradition and reason are all necessary for a faithful, lively and discerning faith community. | | | On the other side of the spectrum, radical work by theologians such as John Calvin in Geneva had given rise to a Protestant perspective which restored the Bible as central to the Reformation churches, but went too far, in Hooker's opinion. | | | But he highlighted two reasons why the Bible was not meant to stand alone, as though on a pedestal, in a Christian faith community. |

| | The Anglican theologian Richard Hooker believed that a council’s purpose was to promote peace and stablity, and argued their authority was related to their conformity to the teaching of Holy Scripture and the decisions of previous councils, as well as to the degree to which their decisions were more widely accepted over time. | | | It has some very careful teaching about the authority of scripture, the nature of the church, the role of bishops, the meaning of autonomy and the nature of the Anglican Communion that is very worthy of study quite apart from our current controversies. | | | For a conciliar church, the more important the decision, the more widely you consult. |
