Let the instruction that you give be sound and above reproach, so that our opponents may be ashamed because they find no evil things to say about us. Exhort slaves to be obedient to their own masters, and to be well-pleasing to them in every respect; not to contradict nor pilfer, but to exhibit praiseworthy trustworthiness in every thing, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things. "For God's grace has shined forth bringing salvation to all men And schooling us to renounce impiety and evil passions, And to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; While we look for the blessed hope and epiphany of the glory of our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity, and to purify unto himself a people zealous of good works." Thus speak, exhort, reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.

he should be a man who rules his own household well, and keeps his children ever under control and thoroughly well behaved. For if a man does not know how to rule his own household, how shall he take charge of a church of God? He must not be a recent convert, lest he be blinded with pride, and incur the doom of the devil. He should also have a good reputation among outsiders, lest he fall into reproach, and into a snare of the devil. Deacons, likewise, must be serious, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of gain, holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. They should first be tested, and after that, if they are found irreproachable, let them serve as deacons. Deaconesses likewise must be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
