1 Timothy 3:8-13 ▼

8 Likewise must ye ministers be graue, not double tongued, not geuen to much wine, neither greedy of fylthy lucre:

9 Holdyng the misterie of the fayth in a pure conscience.

10 And let them first be proued, then let them minister, beyng blamelesse.

11 Euen so must their wyues be graue, not euyll speakers, sober, faythfull in all thynges.

12 Let the deacons be the husbandes of one wife, and such as can rule their children well, and their owne housholdes.

13 For they that haue ministred well, get them selues a good degree, and great libertie in the fayth whiche is in Christe Iesus.
