I Timothy 3:1 - 13
This is a true saying, If a man desire the
office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of
one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour,
given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not
given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy
lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
One that ruleth well his own house, having his
children in subjection with all gravity;
(For if a man know not how to rule his own
house, how shall he take care of the church of
God?) Not a novice, lest being lifted up
with pride he fall into the condemnation of the
devil. Moreover he must have a good report
of them which are without; lest he fall into
reproach and the snare of the devil.
Likewise must the deacons be grave, not
doubletongued, not given to much wine, not
greedy of filthy lucre; Holding the
mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
And let these also first be proved; then let
them use the office of a deacon, being found
blameless. Even so must their wives be
grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all
things. Let the deacons be the husbands of
one wife, ruling their children and their own
houses well. For they that have used the
office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a
good degree, and great boldness in the faith
which is in Christ Jesus.

"I want to work hard for the Lord, without my
head being spread. The New Testament teaches us
to work in the vineyard of the Lord, while at
the same time warning us not to toot our own
horn."
Mathew
20:4 And
said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard,
and whatsoever is right I will give you. And
they went their way.
Mathew 6:1-2 ¶
Take heed that ye do not your alms before men,
to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward
of your Father which is in heaven.
Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not
sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites
do in the synagogues and in the streets, that
they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto
you, They have their reward.
Colossians 1:10 That
ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all
pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and
increasing in the knowledge of God;
Sam
