Well, if you can get that from this:

“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.”

then Holy Scripture is pretty useless in debate with you.

I have no argument with Scripture, only your interpretation, as it is not sensible. The church cannot be the foundation of all truth, or truth couldn’t have existed until Christ founded the church. Therefore, the only sensible object in the phrase that the description can be applied to is God, since He and He alone preexisted the concept of “truth”.

Yes, it certainly is from a false Catholic perspective...

know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God,,,,the pillar and ground of the truth.”

No house or building is the pillar and ground of the truth...It is only God who is the pillar of truth....
