An elder must be blameless, faithful to his wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient

 Titus 1:1-16

To Titus, my true son in our common faith:

An elder must be blameless, faithful to his wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. Since an overseer manages God’s household, he must be blameless—not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. 

He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.

They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.

Why?

Paul taught Titus how to handle or manage a church, to be an elder must be blameless, faithful to his wife. not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain.

It is not everyone who says they are Christians, but their actions prove who they are.

Talk and action should be the same in Jesus Christ.

How?

May the Holy Spirit remind me to be a real Christian, a folloer of Jesus Christ.
