1 TIMOTHY 3:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.”
the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth — the church as both oikos theou and ekklēsia of the living God bears singular responsibility: to be stulos kai hedraima (pillar and foundation) undergirding alētheia (truth). Ecclesiastical order serves truth's preservation and proclamation.
