1 | Can elders be divorced and still serve? | Titus 1:6 | 4841 | |||
Does this mean that an elder/pastor must never have been divorced, and if they have, do they forfeit their position in the church? The implications are staggering for a church striving to be holy and always in the true will of God! | ||||||
2 | Can elders be divorced and still serve? | Titus 1:6 | Searcher56 | 4844 | ||
YES. This also is seen in 1 Timothy 3:1-13. Some will say that just as long he does not remarry, he may still serve. There are some who say, if he is single, he may serve as an elder/pastor or deacon. But I see the Bible as being very clear. It is not just the divorced man who is disqualified. | ||||||

welcome to the forum david...I would look at 2corinthians5:17 therefore if any man be in Christ,he is a new creature:old things are passed away;behold,all things are become new...were you a christian when you divorced?...because that some had more than one wife at the time of these writings some would say that the one wife refers to just one wife...or but one wife...its God that qualifies and disqualifies one as a deacon...satan tries to make you feel less than what Jesus makes you and thats a new creation...whatever is in the past is not who you are now...are you sure that God wants you to be a deacon? 1 timothy 3:8-13...if so does the church you are going to want you as a deacon or are you just thinking about it?...God list's the qualifications...if you meet them and thats where God wants you don't let the enemy keep you from it...God opens the doors and no man can shut (Rev 3:8)...God Bless | ||||||
