Excerpt from The Christian Ambassador: And Other Addresses About the year 1860, Mr. Varley became specially interested in the Kensington Potteries School, of which he became Superintendent. His preaching there on Sunday evenings, led finally to the building of the West London Tabernacle, at St. James' Square, Nottinghill, which, from the time of its opening, was regularly filled by people anxious to listen to his interpretations of the Word of God. The church that grew out of these labors, is a practical embodiment of his belief, that true spiritual union is not the result of any denominational code, ritual, or polity, but rather the result of the Holy Spirit's work in every living member of Christ's body. Mr. Varley evidently believes in the unity of the Spirit, as maintained by the power and grace of God in the hearts of Christians, and cares but little for the minor diversities that characterize the real Church of Christ. His labors have been remarkable in two important respects. First, they have been the labors of a lay evangelist. He has presented himself to men as a Christian business man, too solicitous for their welfare in the life to come, to be selfishly and wholly absorbed in his own concerns in this. His well-known probity and simplicity in secular affairs, has emphasized his influence upon the platform. The hundreds of invitations that have poured in upon him from different parts of England during the last five years, are significant of a general need as well as of a popular demand.
