But if I should be delayed, I have written so that you will know how people ought to act in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth. 1 Timothy 3:15
One of our most sacred responsibilities
As the church of the living God
Is to be the pillar and foundation of the truth.
The church is not the SOURCE of the truth.
God alone is the source.
But He has chosen to entrust it to us.
As caretakers,
We must ensure the truth is properly handled,
Protected and not corrupted.
As support for,
We must ensure the ways we teach, worship
And engage others reflects the truth.
As witnesses to,
We must ensure we handle, study, memorize,
Obey, incorporate and proclaim the truth.
How different would the world be
If all who name the name of Christ,
If all the churches that seek to honor Him,
Committed to being pillars and foundations of the truth?
