Publisher's Synopsis
An Anglican Prayer Book sets out a contemporary version, which when used with the knowledge of the original volumes is profitable for the laity to incorporate into their daily lives. The English Standard Version of the Bible has been used based on its adherence to the traditions of the King James Version. It is important to note that 1662, 1928 & 1962 editions of the Book of Common Prayer possess the authority of the standard doctrine. For this reason, we offer the original prefaces to the 1549 and 1662 editions. The 1549 preface contained Cranmer's explanation as to why a new prayer book was necessary and the preface to the 1662 Book of Common Prayer expresses the divine intention of our ancient church fathers.
Our prayer is that Anglicans all over the world will be blessed by An Anglican Prayer Book and further advance the Gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ.
