MFT TI1 3:1 It is a popular saying that "whoever aspires to office is set upon an excellent occupation."
MFT TI1 3:2 Well, for the office of a bishop a man must be above reproach; he must be only married once, he must be temperate, master of himself, unruffled, hospitable, a skilled teacher,
MFT TI1 3:3 not a drunkard or violent, but lenient and conciliatory, not a lover of money,
MFT TI1 3:4 able to manage his own household properly and keep his children submissive and perfectly respectful
MFT TI1 3:5 (if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how is he to look after the church of God?);
MFT TI1 3:6 he must not be a new convert, in case he gets conceited and incurs the doom passed on the devil;
MFT TI1 3:7 also, he must have a good reputation among outsiders, in case he incurs slander and is trapped by the devil.
MFT TI1 3:8 Deacons in turn are to be serious men; they are not to be tale-bearers or addicted to drink or pilfering;
MFT TI1 3:9 they must maintain the divine truth of the faith with a pure conscience.
MFT TI1 3:10 They too must be put on probation; after that, if they are above reproach, they can serve as deacons.
MFT TI1 3:11 Their wives must be serious too; they must not be slanderers but temperate and absolutely trustworthy.
MFT TI1 3:12 Deacons are only to be married once, and they must manage their children and households properly.
MFT TI1 3:13 For those who do good service as deacons win a good position for themselves as well as great freedom in the faith of Christ Jesus.
MFT TI1 3:14 Though I hope to come to you before long, I am writing to you in this way,
MFT TI1 3:15 in case I am detained, to let you see how people ought to behave within the household of God; it is the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the Truth.
MFT TI1 3:16 And who does not admit how profound is the divine truth of our religion? — it is He who was "manifest in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by the angels, preached among the nations, believed on throughout the world, taken up to glory."
