Bible Question: What are the qualification for an elder |
Bible Answer: I think that an elder is someone who is either older than you (usually older is wiser but not always) or someone in authority or someone more versed in the Bible...I consider anyone who is wiser than me whether spiritually or earthly to be an elder of mine...but search the Scripture about the order of things...meaning who comes first the elder or the younger and why or how that happens...just stay humble always no matter how old or young you are! |
