All trade, traffic, commerce, exchange, intercourse, communication, merchant, wares and market powers and authority of Heaven shall hereby be vested as the Right of Ius Divinum Commercium to each and every Regional Spiritual Collective as the body and force known as Commercium.

The word “Commercium” originally comes from Latin and means “trade, traffic, commerce, exchange, intercourse, communication, merchant, wares and markets”.

When anyone references, writes or speaks of Commercium, or Trade, or Traffic, or Commerce, or Exchange, or Intercourse, or Communication or Markets specifically or in general as a quality, force, action, power, authority or any other manifestation, it shall mean this body and the powers vested in it and no other.

The valid gift, grant and conveyance of Commercium is hereby vested in all Members defined by the present Covenant and associated Covenants and Charters.

Such gift, grant and conveyance cannot be derogated, abrogated, suspended, sold, enclosed, privatized, surrendered, seized, abandoned or altered by any other means or argument.

Any claimed laws, statutes, decrees of inferior societies and associated entities that deny the gift, grant and conveyance of Commercium or seek to alter or control it in anyway are without any legitimate or valid force or effect ecclesiastically, legally or lawfully and therefore are null and void from the beginning.
