Meet Our Elders
“This is a faithful saying: If a
man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work. A bishop
then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate,
sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach; not given to
wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome,
not covetous; one who rules his own house well, having his
children in submission with all reverence (for if a man does not know
how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?);
not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same
condemnation as the devil. Moreover he must have a good testimony among
those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the
devil,” (1 Timothy 3:1-7, The Holy Bible, NKJV).
