“Twice in the last week I have seen our Anglican friends mention the 1922 statement by Patr. Meletios Metaxakis of Constantinople, in which he affirms the validity of Anglican orders. The first was on May 9, when Anglican bishop Chadler Holder Jones republished the text on his Substack. The statement was also referenced by Aidan Mattis (“Lore Lodge”) during a livestream with Ben Merritt (“Cleave to Antiquity”) and Fr. Peter Heers.
Cleave and Fr. Peter did a very good job answering Mattis’s arguments. However, I’d like to discuss this question at a bit more length.”
