134.2 Purpose and Function of Theological Code  
  The Theological Code shall function as the summary of Law in all official interpretations of Doctrine of One Faith at all levels of One-Faith-Of-God.  
  The Theological Code must reflect all clauses and articles of this Covenant that refer to statements of Official Doctrine. Furthermore, no Law is permitted to exist within the Theological Code that directly contradicts a clause of the Covenant of One-Faith-Of-God.  
  The Theological Code is to be the first reference to all official intrepretation of Doctrinal matters and only the Supreme Court is permitted to refer to the Covenant directly in cases of dispute concerning Doctrinal Law.  
134.3 Structure of the Theological Code
  
  The Theological Code shall be structured into chapters, which in turn are divided into articles and then one or more clauses within each article.
 
  The major chapters of the Theological Code shall be :
 
  1. Introductory provisions
2. Principles of Theological Discourse
3. Theological Precedents
 
134.4 Interpretation of the Theological Code
  
  While an article may belong to a particular chapter, the numbering of all articles is consecutive so that the entire body of articles of the Theological Code may be read as one, with or without the chapter headings.
 
134.5 Amendment of the Theological Code
  
  The Theological Code may be amended from time to time by the addition, or removal of certain Law(s) as passed by the Supreme Council according to its proper authority as defined by this Covenant.
