Excerpt from Early Years and Late Reflections, Vol. 3 of 3
When we speak of unity as appertaining to the Church, we are bound _to have regard, not to a Church over which the Pope, or the Archbishop of Canterbury, or any other spiritual or temporal poten tate may be set, but to that universal Church of which Christ is the Head, and which has been made known to as in the Scriptures by Christ Himself and His Apostles. Of this Church, the Church of this land is a branch and estimated according to the standard of her ritual set forth in her Prayer Book, she justifies the compliment awarded her by Grotius.
