Desiring the Office? How can the task of teaching fellow believers, among whom are those prone to quarrel, discriminate, practice immorality, or simply behave in a fleshly (immature) way be a good thing? 1 Tim. 3:1

Being a bishop IS a Good Thing! As an example to fellow believers who need to put off the old man. A godly and able leader who is able to manage dissenting brethren. As an able teacher of God’s word to build up the body and stand against false teachers seeking to destroy the body of Christ (if not individuals).
