20. The Office Of An Overseer
1 Timothy 3:   It is a trustworthy statement: if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do. 2   An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 3   not addicted to wine or pugnacious, but gentle, uncontentious, free from the love of money.

21. Requirements Of An Overseer
1 Timothy 3:4-7 4  He must be one who manages his own household well, keeping his children under control with all dignity 5  (but if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how will he take care of the church of God?); 6  and not a new convert, lest he become conceited and fall into the condemnation incurred by the devil. 7  And he must have a good reputation with those outside the church, so that he may not fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
