From Scotland-
A congregation in Aberdeen is parting ways with the Scottish
Episcopal Church because of concerns that biblical authority is being
compromised.
Westhill Community Church is splitting with the SEC after 83 per cent of its members voted to leave.
Announcing its decision, the church said it was concerned about the 'continued liberal trajectory' of the SEC.
The Rector of Westhill, Canon Ian Ferguson, told the Anglican Communion News Service that the SEC had taken 'a number of decisions' that it 'could not accept'.
'Our
church was not able to feel they could go on the trajectory that the
SEC are going and they wanted to maintain their sense of biblical
authority and their fellowship with the wider Anglican Communion which
is being torn apart by decisions of some provinces,' he said.
