1 Timothy

1 Timothy 3 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷

8 Deacons in like manner chaste, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not followers of filthy lucre:

9 having the mystery of faith in a pure conscience.

10 And let these also be proved first: & so let them minister, having no crime.

11 The women in like manner chaste, not detracting, sober, faithful in all things.

12 Let deacons be the husbands of one wife: which rule well their children, and their houses.

13 For they that have ministered well, shall purchase to themselves a good degree, and much confidence in the faith which is in Christ JESUS.
