Oikos covers both the structure and the family within it. The New Testament uses it for the church as the “household of God” — a family with God as Father, gathered around the Son, indwelt by the Spirit.

When Paul tells Timothy how to behave “in the household (oikos) of God,” he is treating the church not as an organization but as a family with a name to honor. To follow Jesus is to be brought into a house.
