World Order of Baha'u'llah by -Shoghi Effendi- 1 Para

Difference Between Baha'i Faith and Ecclesiastical Organizations- It behooves us, dear friends, to endeavor not only to familiarize ourselves with the essential features of this supreme Handiwork of Baha'u'llah, but also to grasp the fundamental difference existing between this world-embracing, divinely-appointed Order and the chief ecclesiastical organizations of the world, whether they pertain to the Church of Christ, or to the ordinances of the Muhammadan Dispensation. (18:1)
