The Church is one holy church, grounded on Christ and founded by the apostle’s teachings. The adversaries were more focused on the apostle’s “traditions.” The Church is not founded on right formulas for holy living or the holiness of the ministers, but on the Word and Christ. The Church needs order and formalities but not for the sake of necessity to be saved. In today’s world, we live under the grace of Christ’s cross, to freely provide order to gather around His gifts, but also to make sure that our decisions do not contradict the Scriptures for the sake of the Word.
