"ROFL!"

************

Of course you are referring to 1 Timothy 3:15 --

The context of which discusses how we conduct ourselves in the (entire) household of God...

Paul- here speaking within the pastoral letter (specifically to his spiritual son, Timothy)

....In defining the church as such, does not elevate, abrogate or excuse Christians and the church as a whole from adhering to the written Word as the final authority of faith and practice.

While I should have made that point clearer - earlier....
I did not mock you.

Because the Roman Church often holds to itself as the (only true) household-- and historically... to the exclusion of other streams of faith...

We do indeed operate with different "lingo" and understandings of those terminologies and phrases.

And therefore...
We have an inherently different point of view.

As I said earlier -- without mocking you---

We shall agree to disagree.

Again... enjoy your day.
