The Pillar Of Truth

The world is defined by the weight of peoples opinions and shifting values, yet, truth remains unshakeable. Paul wrote, “That family is the church of the living God, the support and foundation of the truth.” (1 Timothy 3:15, NCV). The fellowshop of believers which we know as Church isn’t just a gathering—it’s called to be a pillar of truth, holding up the unchanging Word of God in a society full of confusion.

Pillars are not decorative; they carry huge weight. As believers, we are to reflect God’s truth with strength, intent and yet compassion. Truth isn’t about winning arguments; it’s about living lives so rooted in Christ that others are drawn to Him. The truth is not harsh—it’s healing. Not arrogant, but anchored.

If the Church is the pillar, then we are its stones—built up together, called to uphold God’s truth through integrity, love, and boldness.
