The Four Pillars of the Church

Paul in the book of Acts (2:42) describes a foursquare church as one in which
scripture study, prayer, fellowship and breaking of bread (or communion)
are equally important for spiritual growth.
Such activities one could expect to correspond to the basic faculties of an individual,
or the resultant personality types within the church
- especially the four piety types noted above.
They fit well.

Scripture study would surely appeal to the intellectual, thinking type;
prayer would suit the person who preferred to withdraw;
the extrovert doer would welcome the practical aspect of communion and sacraments;
and fellowship would be the forte of the outward looking talker.
