Excerpt from The Charter of the Church: Six Lectures on the Spiritual Principle of Nonconformity
The Charter of the Church is not in any saying of Jesus, who, perhaps, never used the word church. It is not a documentary charter at all. Such a textual commission would make the Church what it always tends to be in the hands of those who base it on fiats, documents, and protocols - a chartered company, licensed to exploit the world by means whose ethics are those of an institution rather than a conscience - of an enterprise rather than a cause.
