That Jones shall worship the "god within him" turns out
ultimately to mean that Jones shall worship Jones. Let Jones
worship the sun or moon -- anything rather than the Inner
Light; let Jones worship cats or crocodiles, if he can find any
in his street, but not the god within. Christianity came into
the world firstly in order to assert with violence that a man
had not only to look inwards, but to look outwards, to behold
with astonishment and enthusiasm a divine company and a divine
captain. The only fun of being a Christian was that a man was
not left alone with the Inner Light, but definitely recognized
an outer light, fair as the sun, clear as the moon, terrible as
an army with banners.
