The Office of a Bishop: A Good Work (I Timothy 3:1-7)

Paul is about to lay down qualifications—not preferences, not cultural norms, not church customs, not traditional requirements, but divine biblical requirements. The character of these men will determine the health of the church.  If they are compromised, the church will be compromised.

If they are men of God, as imperfect as these men may be—

• but if they strive for holiness,
• if they are fearless in proclaiming “thus saith the Lord”,
• if they are men of the Bible,
• if they are unwavering in their commitment to God’s Word

then the church will be strong, the church will be steadfast, and the church will be unshakable.
