Theology Class - On the 39 Articles of Religion

Saint Matthew

Saint Matthew

We thank thee, heavenly Father, for the witness of thine apostle and evangelist Matthew to the Gospel of thy Son our Savior; and we pray that, after his example, we may with ready wills and hearts obey the calling of our Lord to follow him; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

12:40 p.m. - 1:20 p.m.

Bound within the Book of Common Prayer, the 39 Articles are more specific than the creeds, and yet, while reflecting the controversies of the Reformation period, they also have a certain timeliness. One notable feature is that, unlike the creeds, the 39 Articles go on to speak of matters pertaining to the state. Over several weeks, Father Austin will guide a reading of the Articles and give theological commentary on their continuing meaning for us.
