The Reformed Episcopal Church holds a high view of Holy Scripture, knowing that the Church of Jesus Christ is built upon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the Chief Cornerstone. The chief source of prophetic and apostolic teaching is the Holy Scriptures. For that reason we are very careful to hear, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them . Much of our liturgy is taken directly from Holy Scripture, and we give place for the public readings of Scripture in all our services. It is an essential component to make us know the God who is. We are especially mindful of this in an age when many churches write off the Bible as a collection of myths and errors. Modern theologians and bishops make a point of setting aside the most basic tenets of Christian belief by first marginalizing Scripture. Although the Reformed Episcopal Church was founded in 1873, it stands in a tradition that goes back to the earliest times. That appreciation is seen in our use of the ancient Creeds of the Church, the Apostles and Nicene. There is also a deep concern to learn from the ancients, to glean the lessons they learned from the early heresies, controversies, and tests they faced. Our tie to the ancient Church is also seen in our continued commitment to the historic episcopate. We are also conscious about our English roots. English Christianity is very ancient. It is supposed that the faith was brought to England by slaves in Roman households. We do know that by A.D. 314, the English sent bishops to attend the Council of Arles. This shows an active church long before the missions of St. Augustine of Canterbury in A.D. 597. This ancient English church develops the basis and structure of our liturgy. We are careful to deal with this heritage with care and respect.
