"Heretical" church structures?

The theology that matters is not the theology we profess, but the theology we practise. As John Stott says: "Our static, inflexible, self-centred structures are 'heretical structures' because they embody a heretical doctrine of the church." If "our structure has become an end in itself, not a means of saving the world" it is "a heretical structure". John Stott, The Living Church (IVP, 2007), p.58
