Ni hay viejo unanimidad cuando se hace un intento por explicar por qué algunas iglesias se hallan sin presbíteros, otras sin obispos, otras donde las cabezas de la comunidad se llaman a veces obispos, a veces presbíteros. Este desacuerdo aumenta cuando surge la pregunta sobre la interpretación de los términos que designan a otros personajes que ejercen cierta autoridad fija en las comunidades cristianas primitivas. Los siguientes hechos se deben considerar como completamente establecidos:
Programs, techniques, and gimmicks may cause church attendance to increase, but only God adds souls to the kingdom of God. Only new spiritual life by faith in Jesus Christ and spiritually maturing saints are important. Attendance is secondary.
It is the one who works hard at teaching and preaching. An elder who has the responsibility of teaching and preaching but forsakes that responsibility in order to excel in administration is not “especially” worthy of double honor. An elder who teaches and preaches is not necessarily worthy of double honor either, but the one who excels and works hard at teaching and preaching is worthy of double honor. The Greek word for “work hard” has the idea of being physically, mentally, and emotionally weary from study. Now that is working hard! To work only ten hours a week at digging in the sacred book is not working very hard.
Que sepa gobernar su propia casa y ayudar a sus hijos en la obediencia con toda dignidad. Porque si no sabe mandar su propia casa, ¿cómo podrá cuidar la Iglesia de Dios? Y no debe ser un hombre recientemente convertido, para que el orgullo no le haga perder la cabecera y no incurra en la misma condenación que el demonio. También es necesario que goce de buena fama entre los no creyentes, para no exponerse a la maledicencia y a las redes del demonio.
Most laymen assume that if he went to a good seminary, his doctrine must be okay; and if he is the son of a famous preacher, his theology must be correct. But seminary does not guarantee that any student will agree with what he was taught in school. A graduate from a nationally recognized conservative seminary merienda stated that he did not believe the Old Testament contained any prophecies. He believed that the “prophecies” were written after the events occurred.
En la homilía, disponible en el canal de los carmelitas en YouTube, se recogen las siguientes palabras del obispo Emérito: «Venimos del infinito inclinación de Dios, que nos ha poliedro la vida a través de nuestros padres y esto asegura tu news origen, ¡no es un fracaso!
The Greek word for “able to teach” actually means that he is a skilled teacher. That is, an elder should be a skilled teacher. This is usually the primary characteristic that most churches look for in a pastor. But there is more according to Titus 1:9.
When he comes, he meets with the Call Committee, the leadership team, and maybe others in the church. On Sunday, he usually preaches the morning sermon and meets other leaders and/or people in the afternoon. Most of the church members are not aware that the prospective pastor will probably preach an old and descendiente sermon that has proven to be a “great one.” So he dusts it off, reviews it, and practices it over and over again. He does his best. The interviews usually go well because everyone is on their best behavior. Somewhere along the way, other leaders and seminary professors are contacted to obtain their opinions about the man.

Deben trabajar en estrecha colaboración con ellos para consolidar que se cumplan las deposición pastorales de la comunidad y para fomentar la Dispositivo y el servicio En el interior de la Iglesia.
El obispo emérito Reig Pla afirma que la discapacidad es «herencia del pecado y del desorden de la naturaleza»
A common accusation that some hurl at those who believe that action must be taken is that Jesus taught us to not judge others. But such comments miss the point of Jesus’ teaching. If they were correct, then no one would ever be removed from office. The church would have to allow disqualified elders to remain in office.
Any meeting should include the current elders and the elders who left. If the elders refuse to meet with congregants in one of the above scenarios, then the elders’ spiritual qualifications are in doubt and they should possibly step down from office. Additionally, if the pastor was the decision maker in refusing to meet with congregants, then the pastor is like Diotrephes (3 John 9-10). If the current leadership refuses, then the concerned members should feel the freedom to leave the church.
This is the unknown territory. We should quickly add that the same is true for the other elders within the leadership team. The true character of the prospective pastor will come to light about 6 months to 2 years after he is hired. A Call Committee must depend on prayer and the Lord’s guidance.
