(if anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of god’s church?) he must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil. he must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap.”

Q

In the same way, their wives are to be women worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything. a deacon must be the husband of but one wife and must manage his children and his household well. Those who have served well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.

Acts 6:1-7 – “in those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Grecian Jews among them complained against the hebraic jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. So the twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “it would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of god in order to wait on tables. Brothers, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the Word.” This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Steven, a man full of faith and of the holy spirit; also Phillip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism. They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them. So the word of god spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.”
