    Your logic was that either they were unbiblical or I was being unbiblical.

    insinuation . . . I might imply more than you like. But, I will give you the cold hard truth long before I would need to insinuate . . .

    I really haven't seen anyone post any Scritpure besides 1 Corinthians that defends the pastor of a church being a single man. I would like to know how a single man can "manage his household well"....and by extension a congregational "family".

    I said initially that I wasn't 100% sure whether my position was right or wrong, and if it could be shown that the requirements for a pastor found in 1 Timothy and Titus were only "recommendations" as some have insinuated, and not requirements, I would be open to a change in thought pattern. The sticking point for me is the word "must".

    El G-

    Sorry you took my post as an attack on your scriptural views. It was meant to point out a difference I have in interpretation.

    Now, we've had the business meeting. Where's the fried chicken? :thumbs:
