This is due in large part to the paucity of strictly theological writings published on his part (2 works on the Lord's Supper). Why is this? As Archbishop, thank God, he was busy shepherding the Church of England from medieval-Roman Catholicism into a reformed-catholic/protestant church, bringing along as many sheep possible while dodging "daggers" from his opponents. This Homily of the Salvation of Man shows Cranmer's mastery of the theological issues of salvation while presenting them in a most accessible and edifying pastoral sermon... with theological concision and eloquence - such as this:<br /><br /><i>Nor the faith also does not shut out the justice of our good works, necessarily to be done afterwards of duty towards GOD (for we are most bounden to serve GOD, in doing good deeds, commanded by him in his holy Scripture, all the days of our life:) But it excludes them, so that we may not do them to this intent, to be made good by doing of them. For all the good works that we can do, be imperfect, and therefore not able to deserve our justification: but our justification doth come freely by the mere mercy of GOD...</i><br /><br />I look forward to Fr. Hart's and Fr. Well's teachings.Jack Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281378425270530573noreply@blogger.com
