2 ARE WE AS TRADITIONAL ANGLICANS “CATHOLIC” OR “PROTESTANT”, BOTH OR NEITHER
?-
The Anglican tradition is considered to be the via media. While historically, the early reformers solidly intended to produce a protestant religion, it continued to have aspects that were uncompromisingly catholic due to the Elizbethian Settlement. Traditional Anglicans accept the historical reality of this and cherish it because every church has patrimony and the need of self-governance. However, in various times and places within Anglicanism, the church has rejected doctrine that has is a part of the Vincentian canon. We as traditional Anglicans accept the Vincentian Canon with fervor and intend to be wholly a part of the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church in doctrine and intent.

Who is God?
God is a pure Spirit, the Creator and Preserver of all things, who has no beginning or end. Think of time as a pencil one end marks the beginning of time and the other marks the end of time but God, who created time (the pencil), exists outside of time. So, God has no beginning or end.
What is sin?
The most common definition for sin is transgressions against the Law of God or giving in to the temptations of the Devil. But consider another definition: that sin is choosing the lesser good; every sin has some good such as pleasure or satisfaction, but sinful pleasure falls short of God’s will. It is choosing the lesser good.
