It is our goal to worship as directed by God’s Word and to teach and obey the will of God as revealed in the Bible.

What The Church Must Do
Paul left Timothy in Ephesus to make sure the church there would operate properly.
False doctrine abounded in the area, and the church had to stand for the truth and develop mature leaders. In Paul’s own inspired words to the young preacher, he wrote in the epistle, “so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the house ofGod, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Tim. 3:15).
In addition to giving us a description of the church (“the house of God”) we get a description of the duty of the church (to be “the pillar and ground of the truth”). What Paul is saying here is that the church is the vehicle in which God has entrusted the preservation and the promotion of the truths that are set forth in Scripture. It is the pillar and ground, the supporter and upholder, of the truths that are in God’s word. No doubt, Timothy felt a great responsibility in this endeavor. He was to make sure that the inspired words given to him by
Paul were used as doctrine (1 Tim. 4:13) and that no other teaching be allowed other than what God brought forth (1 Tim. 1:3; 4:1). Timothy was to defend the true Scripture with a soldier-like attitude (1 Tim. 1:18). This is a concept that we should take seriously and still uphold today.
As in the first century, the church must stand solely and firmly upon God’s word and withstand the winds of change, the storms of discord, and the shifting sands of false doctrine. Men will constantly make attempts to change the New Testament message of how one receives salvation, how the church is organized and how she works and worships, what lifestyles are or are not acceptable to the Lord, etc., etc. People are constantly trying to get their opinions accepted on par with God’s instructions. But when the truth is changed or
modified, it ceases to be the complete truth (Gal. 1:6-7). Who is going to stand for the complete truth of God’s Word? The world is not going to do it. False religion is not going to do
it. Misguided men and women are not going to do it. We as the church that Christ built must do it. We need to be people who stand up on the Bible and stand up for the Bible. Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock” (Matt. 7:24-25). ~Edd Sterchi
