Bible Question: can single men be an elder in the church |
Bible Answer: I don't see why not - I don't think the Bible actually says yes or no. It just says: Titus 1:6 An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. |
