Stylos is the blog of Jeff Riddle, a Reformed Baptist Pastor in North Garden, Virginia. The title "Stylos" is the Greek word for pillar. In 1 Timothy 3:15 Paul urges his readers to consider "how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar (stylos) and ground of the truth."

This was an interesting + informative overview on the Museum of the Bible, Dr. Riddle. A fascinating place to visit, perhaps less the video-visual overloading ;) Thx for the video and powerpt slides!
From what I saw in your podcast, the Museum of the Bible can surely be commended for the many outstanding aspects of what you experienced and viewed, and it sounded like you and your daughters very much enjoyed viewing all the subordinate evidence on display.
However, as you point out, missing seemed to be the chief message of all: the sure act of divine providence keeping the Word pure and preserving it, all which points ultimately to the gospel of saving faith by grace in Christ through the Word!
If there’s one thing that should be on clearly and emphatically on display, it’s that.
