Erastianism and the Anglican Establishment Debate
The piece argues that Erastian critics fail to define an ideal national church and that the Anglican Church remains a strong state-supported institution despite reformist pressure. It notes the state’s supremacy, the church’s growing sacerdotal character, and the difficulties reformers face within the Establishment. It cites Hughes Harwood and Broad Churchmen, arguing Dissenters often provide essential spiritual services apart from state control.
