Bible Note: Makarios, God's day to you, my friend. I think your mother-in-law did well by saying no. While I may have been qualified to be a deacon, I thought the fact that I was single was a problem (I didn't have a household to rule, etc.) - so I said no. Now, I would aslo say no because of my adult child. It is my choice. She will always be my child ... and she still lives in my house (my wife's house - I make the payments, but I think of it as hers). At what age or point is your brother-in-law no longer considered a member of the household? I had not thought about this until now ... I think when they move out - or even get married. We mainly look at the one woman man ... but I see the lists being tough to be qualified fully. |
