Making It Plain: “Ecclesiology” = The Study of The Church

SIH TOTT ICONEcclesiology comes from two Greek words:
1. “ecclesia” means “called out”, “assembly”  or “church”
2. “logos” which means “word concerning”, “to discuss”, “to study”.

This term is not used in the Scriptures.

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.  (Matthew 16:18)
