Only one who does not read the Scripture would need a rebuttal as God said in
1 Timothy 3:1-2.............
"This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach".
I guess that is too difficult for some.
GINOLJC, to all,
What if a Woman desire the Office of Bishop? see how your argument is from Ignorance?
and two, Paul was a Bishop/Pastor/Overseer..... so did that disqualify Paul? the
husband of one wife, which Paul had none?
see, you are only arguing from ignorance.
now the last straw that breaks you argument back. listen, Romans 16:3 "Greet
Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:"
here the term "HELPERS" is the Greek word, G4904 συνεργός sunergos (sïn-er-ğos') adj.
a co-laborer, i.e. coadjutor.
[from a presumed compound of G4862 and the base of G2041]
KJV: companion in labour, (fellow-)helper(-labourer, -worker), labourer together with, workfellow
so Major, do you know what a "
coadjutor" is? listen,
a bishop appointed to assist
a diocesan bishop, and often also designated as his successor. please google "
coadjutor", and see what it means.... ok, and the woman, the wife of the man Aquila .... "
Priscilla" is that, A BISHOP with her HUSBAND, both was "HELPERS",
co-laborer, i.e. coadjutor. BISHOPS
see how your arguments goes counterfactual to the Word of God. some time look up words... ok.
