The Interactive Bible: Does my pastor meet the Bible's qualifications? Elders and Deacons The church described in the New Testament is the spiritual body of Christ. The Apostle Paul, speaking of Jesus Christ, says in Ephesians 1:22,23, "And gave him to be head over all things to the church which is his body". A body is a living organism.

Jesus told the Apostle Peter after Peter had confessed him to be the Christ, the son of the Living God, that he would build his church (Matthew 16:16-18). The church is both divine and human since it was originated by our ... 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.
