Publisher's Synopsis
""Book Two of Bishops, Presbyters and Deacons"" is a religious text that explores the roles and responsibilities of these three positions within the Christian church. Written from an Apostolic perspective, the book delves into the historical and biblical roots of each position, as well as their practical applications in modern church settings. The author provides insight into the qualifications and duties of bishops, presbyters, and deacons, and how they work together to serve the congregation and spread the teachings of Christ. The book also offers guidance on how to select and train individuals for these positions, and how to maintain the integrity and unity of the church. With its thorough examination of these important roles, ""Book Two of Bishops, Presbyters and Deacons"" is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of Christian leadership and service.But be thou, O bishop, holy, unblameable, no striker, not soon angry, not cruel; but a builder up, a converter, apt to teach, forbear-ing of evil, of a gentle mind, meek, long-suffering, ready to exhort, ready to comfort, as a man of God. When thou callest an assembly of the Church as one that is the commander of a great ship, appoint the assemblies to be made with all possible skill, charging the deacons as mariners to prepare places for the brethren as for passengers, with all due care and decency.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
