Book excerpt: This was designed for Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer, the Litany and Ante-Communion, using the 1662 BCP as the structure. However, we added the Westminster Standards and Three Forms of Unity. It's a "Reformed Book of Common Prayer." It was designed for those with Reformed backgrounds who get no Reformed Theology in Anglican and Episcopal contexts, schools or pulpits. The old Anglicans had Reformed Churchmen, but those days are gone. Expect little-to-no Reformed Theology in Anglican/Episcopal contexts. This was designed for private use. It does not have the other offices. For those with Reformed catechesis in their backgrounds, you will understand this. For the Reformed, we are still liturgical and Prayer Bookish. Neither affinity group may like the amendments, yet both may understand this hybrid, driven of necessity and desire. Yet, both old school Anglicans, old school Presbyterians and old school Reformed Churchmen will recognize these things. Of course, the Anabaptacostalist traditions will not understand any of this. They would rather clap, enthuse, "get all excited" and do free-for-alls. Clap-trap. However, this new RBCP is "regulated" and disciplined by the Bible. It may be the first of its kind--both Reformed and Anglican.
