Kikuyu Controversy
AN OXFORD ENCYCLICAL.
THE THREATENED DISRUPTION. [jc r Electric Telegraph—Copyright] XU nixed Press association. "3 (Received 8.35 a.m.) London, April 10. The Rev. Dr. Gore, Bishop of Oxford, in an open letter to the clergy, deals severely with Modernist views on the New Testament. Miracles, he says, are absolutely necessary, and oishops should discountenance any man continuing in the exercise of the Ministry who disbelieves in miracles. Dr. Gore accused Evangelicals of threatening disruption by the growing co-operation witli non-Episcopicals. Ho declares that the Anglican communion can never recognise federation with other Protestant bodies, nor celebrate open communion. The church must therefore he loft standing apart from any general Protestant federation. Extremists in the Catholic movement make it difficult to give an intelligent reason why they are not Roman Catholics j nevertheless, there is no call why Anglicans should forego their belief in Purgatory or the Invocation of Saints.
