1 Timothy 5:17 17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
These people weren't giving him any honor at all. Neither were they giving reverence to God for allowing all these distractions. However, his actions were disorderly, to say the least.
Proper discipline in the church is important. This leader showed his lack of discipline by letting these things go till he could no longer stand it. It should have been stopped at the beginning of the problem, not the end.
1 Timothy 3:1-7 1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
