Senior Church of England Leader: Church Will Self-Destruct, Underground Movement Coming
LONDON, December 13, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Jayne Ozanne, who is departing the Anglican Church's Archbishops' Council after serving on it for six years, submitted a confidential document to Church leaders last week. That document, leaked to the press, speaks of a coming "great persecution" and an "underground resistance movement being formed."
"I see a time of great persecution coming, which will drive Christianity all but underground in the West. I believe this will primarily take the form of social and economic persecution, where Christians will be ridiculed for their faith and pressurised into making it a purely private matter. Meanwhile, the established Church will continue to implode and self destruct", wrote Ozanne.
Ozanne added that an "underground resistance movement" is building and would remain.
Listen to a BBC radio interview with Ozanne on the report.
