Titus 1:6
The husband of one wife - Surely the Holy Ghost, by repeating this so often, designed to leave the Romanists without excuse.
4 To aTitus, a true son in our common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and1 the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
Qualified Elders
5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should aset in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you—
6 if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, ahaving faithful children not accused of1 dissipation or insubordination.
7 For a1 bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, anot given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money,
8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled,
9 holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.
The Elders’ Task
10 For there are many insubordinate, both idle atalkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
