In the providence of God Stott, through Langham Trust that he founded, is the single most influental person in theologically edcuating third world Anglican leadership and keeping it loyal to the worldview of the 39 Articles and hence to the Scriptures. Which is why the English and North American Archbishops are finding it hard to win the fight over homosexuality.

"The Reformation was a time when men went blind, staggering drunk because they had discovered, in the dusty basement of late medievalism, a whole cellar of 1500-year-old, 200 proof grace—a bottle after bottle of pure distillate of Scripture, one sip of which would convince anyone that God saves us single-handedly. The word of the gospel—after all these centuries of trying to lift yourself into heaven by worrying about the perfection of your own bootstraps—suddenly turned out to be a flat announcement that the saved were home-free before they started. Grace was to be drunk neat: no water, no ice, and certainly no ginger ale." – Robert Farrar Capon
