I still do really see the scriptural support for an actual vote. Acts says to "pray and choose" and Corinthians talks of kicking out those who are immoral. Can you give me the scriptures for elder rule and pastor rule also. Thanks |

Where in Acts 6:1-7 do you actually see the word "vote"? I looked for it and did not find it. All it says is that "They chose Stephen... (verse 5)". It does not tell us HOW they chose Stephen. It does not say that they voted. | ||||||

I do not recall saying anything about the word vote in Acts. It is me looking for scriptural referance to voting within the church and I can not find any. | ||||||
