1 Timothy 3:2-4

2A bishop must have a good reputation. He must have only one wife, be sober, use good judgment, be respectable, be hospitable, and be able to teach.

3He must not drink excessively or be a violent person, but he must be gentle. He must not be quarrelsome or love money.

4He must manage his own family well. His children should respectfully obey him.
