This evening's sermon is delivered by Rev. George Speers.
In this address, the Reverend George Speers responds to news of King Charles III praying together with the Pope, arguing that the meeting represents a serious theological compromise of biblical Christianity and the Protestant Reformation. Working through six points — historical context, theological compromise, the monarch's constitutional and ecclesiastical role, ecumenical considerations, contemporary challenges, and alternative approaches to Roman Catholic relations — Rev Speers sets out a robustly Reformed Protestant case against ecumenical prayer with Rome, while calling for individual Roman Catholics to be treated with Christian love and evangelised rather than shunned. It is a strongly polemical, doctrinally detailed sermon rooted in classic Reformation distinctives such as sola scriptura, sola fide and sola gratia.
