1 Timothy 3:1-7 - Qualifications For Overseers
1 Faithful is the saying, If any man aspires to supervision, he desires a good work. 2 The overseer therefore must be blameless, the husband of one wife, without wine, serious minded, disciplined, loving strangers, able to teach, 3 no drunkard, not a fighter, not greedy of base gain, but meek, noncontentious, no lover of money, 4 a man who rules his own house well, having children in subjection with all propriety 5 (but if any man knows not how to rule his own house, how will he take care of a congregation of God?), 6 not a new convert, lest having been puffed up he may fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7 And he must also have good testimony from those outside, lest he may fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
