1 Timothy 3:6-11

6Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.1 7Moreover he must have a good report of them who are outside the church ; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

8Likewisemust the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money; 9Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. 10And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless. 11Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober minded, faithful in all things.
