Speaking to an ongoing royal commission inquiry into how the church and other institutions dealt with historical abuse allegations, the victim claimed that Most Revd Dr Phillip Aspinall "believed it all" when they spoke privately together about the abuse he suffered, before he publically denied the claims.
The victim claims that he was abused by former music teacher Gregory Robert Knight at St Paul's School in Brisbane in the 1980s. Mr Knight denies the claims.
He accused the former Anglican Primate of Australia, who remains the Archbishop of Brisbane, of attempting "to bamboozle and intimidate me into submissive retreat," and that his "public face was one of pure detachment, dismissal and derision."
He said: "The church has forever lost all right to exist above the law.
"It clearly can never be trusted again."
Most Revd Dr Phillip Aspinall became the Archbishop of Brisbane in 2002, and was the Anglican Primate of Australia - the head of the church there - from 2005 to 2014.
He is expected to give evidence over the coming days.
A previous statement from the Diocese of Brisbane says: "The Anglican Diocese of Brisbane would like to take this opportunity to apologise again to survivors of abuse and express our sincere regret that abuse occurred.
"It has been 13 years since Archbishop Dr Phillip Aspinall called on the then Prime Minister to establish a Royal Commission, and the then Queensland Premier to hold a State Inquiry, into child sexual abuse.
"In 2002 the Diocese launched its own independent Board of Inquiry into the past handling of complaints of sexual abuse in the Anglican Diocese of Brisbane. The report of the Inquiry was tabled in the Queensland Parliament.
"The Church has a range of stringent policies and measures in place to protect students in Anglican schools in our Diocese."
The royal commission continues.
