When a church is led by butchers rather than by good shepherds it is no longer a church worth talking about : Anglicanism is a clownery and has been one since the very day of its foundation by Henry VIII, the Stalin of the Tudor dynasty.

Islam's aim is to spread and subdugate force submission (Islam) from the world. Welby is blind...surely he can learn from what Islam has done in the once Christian lands of the East. He is maning the same mistake the Egyptian Copts did when the Patriarch of Alexandria successor of St Mark did when he welcome an army of 10,000 invading soldiers of Islam in 639 AD. Look at what they did to Christians in Egypt now the garbage collectors. Welby should be saying immigration is the issue and Islam should be judged on its treatment of Christians and who were there before them. Islam allied itself with Nazism in WW2. It is a bigger danger than Nazism of Marxism.
Welby doesn't seem to understand that in the Old Testament any conflict between the Israelites and the Philistines (read Palestinians) does not end well for the Palestinians. To that extent I would question how well he reads and understands the Bible.
Sadly, like so many others, I left the Church of England because of Justin Welby and others like him. They have destroyed it from the inside. Thomas Cranmer will be turning in his grave.

"Across the Christian spectrum..." Bravo Dr Ashenden; in a fine monologue you accept that non-Catholic Christians are among the faithful & also have a part to play.
In my city, ordinary decent citizens came out and faced down the rioters. They're cowards when outnumbered. Don't fall for their "legitimate grievance" excuses. They were out to cause mayhem and steal some alcohol from the shops. You can see the same people breaking windows after a Luton v Millwall match. They're about as Christian as the average biker gang.
Don’t forget two standards of allowed prayer as well. A single person. ( white ) praying in their heads. On a street corner gets arrested. Thousands of Muslims pray. Closing the whole town down. Perfectly allowed. Stinks
Remember ! First they come for the Saturday people then they come for the Sunday people ! Time to speak out because we Jews have always been the canaries in the coal mines.
Thank you once again Gavin for cutting through. You are a source of immense comfort and solidarity. My conclusion is that Welby, having lost belief in God, has decided to move over to Marxist utopia….or has he always been that way? Bless you Gavin
Orthodox here. You need the Church to was your feet from the dust of you journey on Earth before being received in God's house. Lord have mercy on us all sinners Kyrie eleison ☦️
Agreed. I am Anglican but just about had enough. St James’, Piccadilly had drag queens in front o& the altar. Run by two priestesses. The CE is totally lost now. Quite pathetic.
The C of E has removed itself from the vine and is no longer being fed from the source. It’s in apostasy and is slowly dying. Churches faithful to the gospel on the other hand are thriving. God’s Will be done 🙏✝️
Cathedrals are thriving and they are some of the most liberal places in the Anglican Church. I know most of the clergy in my own Cathedral. Prayerful, generally loving, utterly committed to serving Christ, and fed, morning and evening from the source, as you put it. Why do you need to attack other Christians? How does it help to undermine them?
@@catherinellewelyn-evans3693 This is not an attack it is a warning with compassion. At the end do we really want to be in front of Jesus and he will say “Be gone from me, I never knew you!”. The modern church thinks it is following the Gospel but it’s not. It’s difficult in today’s world to preach the Gospel because it goes against what the modern world wants. This is why it’s so difficult to be a Christian now. People think we are hateful when in reality we are trying to save souls. And after all, that is the primary mission of the church.
@@markgriffiths5289 but perhaps people who think differently from you are ALSO trying to save souls, and perhaps they will be stepping stones towards that end goal. Please stop dismissing Christians who are doing the same work, but may approach it with different understandings of the Bible. We need to value each other, and value the goodness in others, not assume they are wicked and worldly. We have usually come to our conclusions based on prayer, our reading of Scripture, and our deep thinking around that - as Welby will have done too.
@@catherinellewelyn-evans3693dismiss,attack.. paired up with your other comments and word selections you come across damaged and spiteful...please put down your worldly ways and run to Christ's loving healing arms..instead of poking stick at Christians who speak the truth.

He follows Jesus. Christians have disagreed as to how they interpret, or understand, the Bible, since the year dot. Stop judging and condemning those who serve and love God, but who think in a different way to you.
Saint Francis entered the camp of Sultan Al-Kamil (nephew of Saladin) in Egypt during the 5th Crusade. He spent several days there contending with the religious advisors to the Sultan in his presence. St. Francis offered to walk through fire if one of his adversaries would also do so to prove the truth of the Gospel, none of his adversaries would accept the challenge. What a pity that neither Justin Welby nor Pope Francis is likely to repeat this offer. It would make great TV!
Thank you Gavin, that was a truly well spoken insight on Archbishop welby's lack of knowledge of what's really happening in England. We should inform him that the people on the right mostly have strong Christian beliefs, also believe in Free speech, love of neighbors, and forgiveness. Those on the left do not understand the meaning (or are in denial of any of the above beliefs) He should be speaking out about maintaining our Christian values.
My goodness. So the right are Christian; the left are ignorant unbelievers. I am an Anglican priest, passionate about my faith, and also pretty left wing. There are a lot of us around.
Is he even a Christian?. Am I only the only person who noticed that at the coronation of the King , The Archbishop of Canterbury did not know the words of The Blessing, even though he had it in front of him he hesitated and made mistakes.
After he said not getting vaccinated with the gene therapy serum was a mortal sin, I stopped paying attention to him until now. Instead of transmitting eternal life and love over fear during the Covid pandemic, he transmitted no faith and fear. Many Catholic prelates did the same.
@@royquick-s5n The Church was also strongly opposed to the use of anaesthetic when it was first invented, on the basis that we are in this world to suffer, and alleviating pain goes against God's will. There have always been those who took mortification to a sick extreme.

It is a sad but prophesied indictment of a tepid, nay apostate, Christian "mouthpiece" who either believes what he has published or fears for his own head should the enemies of the Christian civilised foundations that we stand upon prevail.

Welby a man who lives in Normandy but had a 2:06 holiday palace in London . His work is in Canterbury but he’s allowed to do it online from home . He’s not sure about what he does but the monies good 😂
Thank you thank you for that very thoughtful piece. In the past, after the English 'Reformation' and beyond, the one thing the Church of England had going for it was the attention it paid to the Bible. Even now, when reading from the Bible during a service, clergy and readers will name the 'chapter and verse' they are using and in many churches even the page number of the reading in copies of the Bible available in the pews. This allows the congregation to check for themselves that the reading was correct. In other words, no 'misinformation.' Therefore, for Welby to use a parable - the actual words of Jesus - as the basis for the promotion of a political ideology, is a betrayal of the Church he leads. Jesus said 'My sheep know my voice.' I understand now what He meant.
Unfortunately, the world; especially the Christian World, has lost the understanding and fear of hell. Without a true understanding of hell, there is no understanding of heaven and salvation of the human soul. Lord Jesus, forgive us of our sins.
I do not believe you!... The Age of the prophet ended with the Apostles.... Your vanity and lies are especially telling.,.You do not speak for Christians Kierie eleison ✝️
Rubbish. Read his life story and be ashamed of your judgement. Just because people don’t necessarily share your interpretation of the Bible does not make them ‘not a Christian’ or mean they have ‘lost their faith.’ Faith is not about ticking the right doctrinal boxes, it’s about having a trust in God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit and putting our lives in his hands

Do any of know when Our Lord is going to come? Does anyone think he is imminent? If you do then where do you want him to find you? With the likes of Welby?? WAKE UP EVERYBODY before it's too late.
Welby was educated (?) at Eton… he occupies one of the topmost jobs in *the world*… like others, I am beyond irritated at how such utterly privileged and insulated people adopt such woke views without shame and self-disgust. They are selling out their people to save their own @rses.
When Teresa May first joined the Conservative Party at the tender age of 13 or thereabouts her father, a parish priest, advised her to tread warily. The parish priest was there for all the parishioners and the rectory's impartiality must be upheld. There are many priests in the CofE who could learn from this not least Justin Welby.
As Welby continues to dismantle the Church of England, it is time that all the lands, churches and treasures owned by the Catholic Church prior to the Reformation and dissolution of the Abbeys should be returned. They are not for Welby to either bequeath or sell.
@@homemaintenance1234 Hardly tribal, ''sweety'', rather, as Welby seems determined to empty out the buildings as he deems that Churches are no longer necessary as places of his version of Christian worship. He's happily selling church lands off to muslims to convert into mosques, why shouldn't the management of the Churchlands seized from the Catholics be returned to them?
I am not Anglican, but he is stepping over the line, but his church , I mean the world Anglican church is looking at the church in England, it's failing, "stand up" "stand up" for the Church, England, and Christianity our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
It would appear that the lack of response is down to fear of being cancelled. Especially in the light of the lack of any “proper” response to the opening & closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games from the Vatican.
You are so right Gavin. It seems we are at a Cultural impasse which, at the very least, requires careful discussion, and representation by parties who should be able to defend and maintain and preserve, the unity that has come out of church and state and essentially bears on creating a climate of tolerance, so that unity has remained possible. It belongs to the people as part of their heritage and If the Archbishop won't throw his weight behind that, it certainly diminishes the role of the church in the public square, and the King, and makes it easier for the suppression of free speech rights. It's very, very extremely concerning to see him fomenting intolerance for Christians, when he is the head of the Christian Church in Britain. He might as "Welby" advocating for the persecution of Christians.
@@iociccio936The Head of the Church is Christ. The Pope and Monarch are simply men. Let's face it the Pope is as woke as Welby. Men err, Christ is our eternal Saviour.

They were out to cause mayhem and steal some alcohol from the shops. You can see the same people breaking windows after a Luton v Millwall match. They're about as Christian as the average biker gang.
Excellent, honest and truthful and brave analysis, thank you Dr Ashenden
And also entirely correct. Thank you to Gavin Ashenden as ever
Don’t forget two standards of allowed prayer as well. A single person. ( white ) praying in their heads. On a street corner gets arrested. Thousands of Muslims pray. Closing the whole town down. Perfectly allowed. Stinks
Keep speaking the Truth! Justin Welby must have lost his faith a long time ago & the sooner he gives up his post the better.
He’s a bishop in name to me. I am centre right. Islam does this in most country’s they move too.
Yes, not enough people are pointing out the role of the police repressing information that is inconvenient for the State Narrative.
Remember ! First they come for the Saturday people then they come for the Sunday people ! Time to speak out because we Jews have always been the canaries in the coal mines.
Thank you once again Gavin for cutting through. You are a source of immense comfort and solidarity. My conclusion is that Welby, having lost belief in God, has decided to move over to Marxist utopia….or has he always been that way?
Bless you Gavin
I have a direct and deeply personal relationship with the Divine through Jesus and I have no need for anybody to obstruct it.
Well said! Thank you 🙏🏻.

It is a mystery to me how anyone can take the CofE seriously.
Agreed. I am Anglican but just about had enough. St James’, Piccadilly had drag queens in front o& the altar. Run by two priestesses. The CE is totally lost now. Quite pathetic.
I do. Love it for its acceptance of difference, its openness to questioning, its calm and gentle services. Love it.

He’s not my Arch Bishop, in fact as a Christian I’m now cast adrift
I am a Methodist and feel the same way.
You are in a very large club of refugees who Jesus.
Join the breakaway C of E.
The C of E has removed itself from the vine and is no longer being fed from the source. It’s in apostasy and is slowly dying. Churches faithful to the gospel on the other hand are thriving. God’s Will be done 🙏✝️
Cathedrals are thriving and they are some of the most liberal places in the Anglican Church. I know most of the clergy in my own Cathedral. Prayerful, generally loving, utterly committed to serving Christ, and fed, morning and evening from the source, as you put it. Why do you need to attack other Christians? How does it help to undermine them?
@@catherinellewelyn-evans3693 This is not an attack it is a warning with compassion. At the end do we really want to be in front of Jesus and he will say “Be gone from me, I never knew you!”. The modern church thinks it is following the Gospel but it’s not. It’s difficult in today’s world to preach the Gospel because it goes against what the modern world wants. This is why it’s so difficult to be a Christian now. People think we are hateful when in reality we are trying to save souls. And after all, that is the primary mission of the church.
@@markgriffiths5289 but perhaps people who think differently from you are ALSO trying to save souls, and perhaps they will be stepping stones towards that end goal. Please stop dismissing Christians who are doing the same work, but may approach it with different understandings of the Bible. We need to value each other, and value the goodness in others, not assume they are wicked and worldly. We have usually come to our conclusions based on prayer, our reading of Scripture, and our deep thinking around that - as Welby will have done too.
@@catherinellewelyn-evans3693dismiss,attack.. paired up with your other comments and word selections you come across damaged and spiteful...please put down your worldly ways and run to Christ's loving healing arms..instead of poking stick at Christians who speak the truth.
@@catherinellewelyn-evans3693Welby is of his father Satan.. we have been warned of false shepherds... Happy clappy Christian is not a get out of jail card.... You come across transparently false Catherine,I wonder why???... The Bible is the word.. it is constant and does not change..unlike people.
God bless you Dr, and may He protect you, Katherine and Mark in your important witness, evangelism and Catholic perspective.
The Archbishop of the Pagan Church of England
Welby should resign!
No, he is the pagan.

He follows the world and not Jesus
As pope do since the schism of 1054.
Kyrie eleison ☦️

I think you’ll find it’s the other way round.
He follows Jesus. Christians have disagreed as to how they interpret, or understand, the Bible, since the year dot. Stop judging and condemning those who serve and love God, but who think in a different way to you.
He is of Satan
It's absolutely true. Thank you.
Saint Francis entered the camp of Sultan Al-Kamil (nephew of Saladin) in Egypt during the 5th Crusade. He spent several days there contending with the religious advisors to the Sultan in his presence. St. Francis offered to walk through fire if one of his adversaries would also do so to prove the truth of the Gospel, none of his adversaries would accept the challenge. What a pity that neither Justin Welby nor Pope Francis is likely to repeat this offer. It would make great TV!
What's Wellby got to say about Christian churches being attacked..
Maybe he’s converted?
Has he ever condemn the murder and abduction Christian by Boko Haram?
Gavinis truly wonderful. He speaks so well without any of the weakness of supposed Conservatives .
Thank you Gavin, that was a truly well spoken insight on Archbishop welby's lack of knowledge of what's really happening in England.
We should inform him that the people on the right mostly have strong Christian beliefs, also believe in Free speech, love of neighbors, and forgiveness. Those on the left do not understand the meaning (or are in denial of any of the above beliefs) He should be speaking out about maintaining our Christian values.
Of course, we saw Christian values in action on our streets!!
My goodness. So the right are Christian; the left are ignorant unbelievers. I am an Anglican priest, passionate about my faith, and also pretty left wing. There are a lot of us around.
Is he even a Christian?. Am I only the only person who noticed that at the coronation of the King , The Archbishop of Canterbury did not know the words of The Blessing, even though he had it in front of him he hesitated and made mistakes.
I’m with you, I see no evidence that he is a Christian. It’s a well paid and pensioned act he puts on
Christian in name only
After he said not getting vaccinated with the gene therapy serum was a mortal sin, I stopped paying attention to him until now. Instead of transmitting eternal life and love over fear during the Covid pandemic, he transmitted no faith and fear. Many Catholic prelates did the same.
I can’t believe he said that … I had no idea

Recommendation of the best medical advice at hand in face of a virus that has caused deaths disqualifies a cleric?🤔
@@royquick-s5n The Church was also strongly opposed to the use of anaesthetic when it was first invented, on the basis that we are in this world to suffer, and alleviating pain goes against God's will. There have always been those who took mortification to a sick extreme.

True believers should come out of the Anglican church. Welby is misleading many to hell.
I am not a Roman Catholic but I thank God for Gavin Ashenden.
Welby behaves like someone who does not believe in God
From appearances he seems to be a Marxist. He would not be the first person or institution to be taken in by their imitations of concern for human beings. Its never about the thing - its always about the revolution.
Welby does not follow the Bible, ie he doesn't follow Jesus.He is a fraud as Archbishop of Canterbury.
Have you only just realised this!!!!
Not the Christian God, certainly.
What utter rubbish! I wonder what god you believe in?!!
The Archbishop is not working for God, he is more in tune with the Devil .
Yes you are 100 percent right ......satan the devil has taken over the British 😂😂😂😂
Thanks once again, dear Gavin, for speaking up the way You do. May the Lord grant You hundredfold in strenght.
Thank you Gavin for your measured truth telling for, in Christ, we have not been given a spirit of timidity but of power, love and a sound mind.
It is a sad but prophesied indictment of a tepid, nay apostate, Christian "mouthpiece" who either believes what he has published or fears for his own head should the enemies of the Christian civilised foundations that we stand upon prevail.
Thank you for speaking The Truth in Love, in hope that ears will hear and repent that now "know not what they do"......
God's Will IS being done on earth - we walk by Faith not sight - regardless of manifest insanity He has conquered the world.......
Hallelujah
Amen
Be strong and very courageous for Immanuel

The devil incarnate, he definately doesn't speak for me, my God would never ask us to behave as that judas
Thank you thank you for that very thoughtful piece. In the past, after the English 'Reformation' and beyond, the one thing the Church of England had going for it was the attention it paid to the Bible. Even now, when reading from the Bible during a service, clergy and readers will name the 'chapter and verse' they are using and in many churches even the page number of the reading in copies of the Bible available in the pews. This allows the congregation to check for themselves that the reading was correct. In other words, no 'misinformation.' Therefore, for Welby to use a parable - the actual words of Jesus - as the basis for the promotion of a political ideology, is a betrayal of the Church he leads. Jesus said 'My sheep know my voice.' I understand now what He meant.
How long before Christianity becomes persecuted in the UK?
It is now! Didn’t you see the elderly minister being manhandled by police a day or so ago? All he did was to pray.
Unfortunately, the world; especially the Christian World, has lost the understanding and fear of hell. Without a true understanding of hell, there is no understanding of heaven and salvation of the human soul. Lord Jesus, forgive us of our sins.
I don't think we orthodox did though
I do not believe you!... The Age of the prophet ended with the Apostles.... Your vanity and lies are especially telling.,.You do not speak for Christians

Justin Welby was one of the many reasons I am converting to Catholocism
Welcome Home
I think that’s what we all need to do. Catholic is really our religion centuries ago
We are only far right due to the left moved even more left.
I moved to a free church 25 years ago, its all about loving g and following Jesus, but it is so sad.
The current Pope is as woke as Welby.
Welby has two Muslim body guards. What would they do to him, if he ever said anything truthful about Islam?
The cellphone is the perfect instrument for disseminating propaganda.
I believe he lost his faith years ago. He may maintain some Christian values but he no longer believes in God. A political actor
I think he is worse than that he is not a Christian at all
Rubbish. Read his life story and be ashamed of your judgement. Just because people don’t necessarily share your interpretation of the Bible does not make them ‘not a Christian’ or mean they have ‘lost their faith.’ Faith is not about ticking the right doctrinal boxes, it’s about having a trust in God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit and putting our lives in his hands
@@catherinellewelyn-evans3693Welby is of Satan Catherine ...'rubbish of the world covers him and his misled minions.. you are in grave danger following this creature.

The Church's one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is his new creation by water and the word;
From heaven he came and sought her
To be his holy bride;
With his own blood he bought her,
And for her life he died.
Why doesn't he just convert to Islam & have done with it?
The Good shepherd does lay down his life to protect us from the evil one .
It's sad but does anyone take him seriously? He's been so anti-Christian for years. We have to wake up and stand for a much more radical Christianity. We need to leave this old guard behind . Do any of know when Our Lord is going to come? Does anyone think he is imminent? If you do then where do you want him to find you? With the likes of Welby?? WAKE UP EVERYBODY before it's too late.
He was brought up by a jew.
Not my Archbishop ever
Very well put thankyou .
Welby was educated (?) at Eton… he occupies one of the topmost jobs in *the world*… like others, I am beyond irritated at how such utterly privileged and insulated people adopt such woke views without shame and self-disgust. They are selling out their people to save their own @rses.
Laughing all the way to the bank.
Is he a traitor to Christ?
Thank you for your truthfulness .
When Teresa May first joined the Conservative Party at the tender age of 13 or thereabouts her father, a parish priest, advised her to tread warily. The parish priest was there for all the parishioners and the rectory's impartiality must be upheld. There are many priests in the CofE who could learn from this not least Justin Welby.
As Welby continues to dismantle the Church of England, it is time that all the lands, churches and treasures owned by the Catholic Church prior to the Reformation and dissolution of the Abbeys should be returned. They are not for Welby to either bequeath or sell.
Bit silly, bit tribal, dear, but it would focus the mind for sure!
@@homemaintenance1234 Hardly tribal, ''sweety'', rather, as Welby seems determined to empty out the buildings as he deems that Churches are no longer necessary as places of his version of Christian worship. He's happily selling church lands off to muslims to convert into mosques, why shouldn't the management of the Churchlands seized from the Catholics be returned to them?
@@homemaintenance1234Justice!
Thank you for speaking truth so beautiful yes Catholics bishops not speaking up and during covid I think it was disaster
Welby is not a man of God.
Welby is so far out of touch, he's not on this planet!😠😠
I am not Anglican, but he is stepping over the line, but his church , I mean the world Anglican church is looking at the church in England, it's failing, "stand up" "stand up" for the Church, England, and Christianity our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Has Cardinal Vincent Nichols nothing to say? Is there to be no pastoral guidance on this important matter or does Welby speak for him?
This is very, very important point.
It would appear that the lack of response is down to fear of being cancelled. Especially in the light of the lack of any “proper” response to the opening & closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games from the Vatican.
.'Revd Cannon Fr Phil Harris†' on TH-cam, has made a video saying exactly what Welby should have said.
The Cardinal never says anything that descents from secular leftist orthodoxy
Read a blog somewhere that in a newspaper report or ad Nichols and a rabbi supported what Welby said. True? Or a fabrication?🤔
You are so right Gavin. It seems we are at a Cultural impasse which, at the very least, requires careful discussion, and representation by parties who should be able to defend and maintain and preserve, the unity that has come out of church and state and essentially bears on creating a climate of tolerance, so that unity has remained possible.
It belongs to the people as part of their heritage and If the Archbishop won't throw his weight behind that, it certainly diminishes the role of the church in the public square, and the King, and makes it easier for the suppression of free speech rights. It's very, very extremely concerning to see him fomenting intolerance for Christians, when he is the head of the Christian Church in Britain.
He might as "Welby" advocating for the persecution of Christians.
