253: Reasons why the Apocrypha does NOT belong in the Bible!

254: The Interactive Bible:
Let us first look at the qualifications of elders. Combining the two passages from I Timothy and Titus, it is easy to see that the qualifications of elders fall naturally into three groups. Some are positive, some are negative, and some are special. With the exception of the special qualifications, these are qualities which every Christian should strive to attain. The negative qualifications are: not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy ... These last qualifications do show, incidentally, that although many people now use the terms elder and pastor to refer to the preacher, these terms were not used this way in Bible times. Although a preacher could also be an elder or pastor, if he were qualified, it is obvious that preachers did not have to be married nor have believing children to preach, while elders, or pastors, are required to be married and to have believing children. This is but another example of human changes which have been added to religion without God's authority ... ...
