What The Episcopal Church teaches

Positions bound by the denomination's confessional standards. This is what the tradition teaches; whether this specific congregation publicly holds each is a separate question — see Statements below.

Confessional standard: Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion

Affirms

Apostolic Successionstandard
Historic episcopate — tactile line of consecration from the apostles.
Homosexual practice and biblical sexual ethicsweak
Same-sex marriage authorization implies moral affirmation.
Infant Baptismstandard
Westminster XXVIII; Book of Concord SC IV; Council of Trent Session VII; Wesleyan Articles Art. XVII
Permissibility of divorce and remarriageweak
Matthew 19:9 (adultery ground); 1 Corinthians 7:15 (abandonment ground). Practice varies.
Women in pastoral / ordained officeweak
Various denominational actions (TEC 1976, ELCA 1970s, PC(USA) 1956, AG 1935, CofE 1994 priests / 2014 bishops, etc.)

Denies

Assumption of Maryweak
Universal Protestant rejection — not attested in Scripture; not received as dogma.
Immaculate Conceptionstandard
Universal Protestant + Orthodox rejection. Orthodox reject on the grounds that they hold prepurification at the Annunciation, not conception.
Marriage as one man and one womanweak
PC(USA) 2015; ELCA 2009; TEC 2015; UMC 2024. Same-sex marriage authorized in polity.
Transubstantiationstandard
Orthodox reject the Aristotelian metaphysics; Lutherans use 'sacramental union'; 39 Articles Art. XXVIII rejects explicitly; Reformed/Baptist reject substance-change.

Wrestles with

Believer's Baptismweak
Paedobaptist bodies practice adult baptism on credible profession where infant baptism was omitted, but do not consider it normative.
Pacifism vs. just-warweak
Default just-war framework — usually unwritten. Inheriting at weak confidence.
Perpetual Virginity of Maryweak
Historically held by Luther, Calvin, Zwingli; retained as pious opinion (not binding) by confessional Lutherans and traditional Anglicans.
Real Presenceweak
Calvin's spiritual presence (genuinely present but not physically) is neither strong affirm nor deny; Anglican/Methodist typically hold a receptionist view.
Theotokosweak
Confessionally valid title (Ephesus is a received council) but not used devotionally; retained in liturgy where liturgy is retained.
