one who manages well his own house, having his children in subjection with all seriousness; if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the congregation of God?

He must have a good reputation with those outside the congregation, so that he will not fall into reproach and the snare of the Devil. Ministerial servants should likewise be men of dignity, not double-tongued, or addicted to much wine or fond of sordid gain. They should maintain the secret of the faith with a clear conscience. Let these be tested first. Then let them serve as servants, if they are blameless. Women in like manner must be serious, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.
