How do we know that the church is important?

Answered in 1 source

The church is important because it is the pillar and support of the truth, through which God reveals His glory to the world (1 Timothy 3:15).

The Apostle Paul notes in 1 Timothy 3:15 that the church is the household of God, and it serves as the pillar and support of the truth. This imagery indicates that the church is not merely a gathering of believers but is ordained by God as the primary institution through which His truth is upheld and propagated. It reveals God's manifold wisdom to both men and angels, making it vital for the advancement of His kingdom. Thus, neglecting the local assembly is tantamount to neglecting God's plan to showcase His glory and truth on earth.
