1 Timothy 3:2-7

EJ2000(i) 2 It is expedient, therefore, that the bishop be blameless, the husband of only one wife, vigilant, temperate, of worldly affections mortified, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 not given to wine, not hurtful, not greedy of dishonest gain, but gentle, not contentious, not covetous; 4 one that rules well his own house, having his children in subjection with all integrity; 5 (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} of God?) 6 not a novice, lest being puffed up, he fall into judgment of the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good report of those who are outside lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
