By way of introducing this new section, we discuss a survey that was conducted by Ligonier Ministries on The State of Theology. This is important because the trend amongst professing evangelicals is worsening and more and more people clearly do not understand basic theology, nor the importance and function of the church, and that is what this section will address in part.

As we begin to discuss the passage we are governed by the idea that Believers ought to take their responsibility to the Church with great sobriety!

In v. 14a we discover that 1) Personal fellowship is important.

Then, in 14b-15a, we learn that 2) The written Word is powerful.
