1 Timothy 3:1-7

It is a faithful saying: if a man desires the episcopate, he desires a good work. Therefore, it is necessary for a bishop to be beyond reproach, the husband of one wife, sober, prudent, gracious, chaste, hospitable, a teacher, not a drunkard, not combative but restrained, not quarrelsome, not covetous; but a man who leads his own house well, having children who are subordinate with all chastity. For if a man does not know how to lead his own house, how will he take care of the Church of God? He must not be a new convert, lest, being elated by pride, he may fall under the sentence of the devil. And it is necessary for him also to have good testimony from those who are outside, so that he may not fall into disrepute and the snare of the devil.
