11-18-24 Part 1 Leadership qualifications for Titus on Crete

The first qualification, found in verse 6, is that an elder must be 
blameless. Not perfect, but blameless. There’s a difference (not 
convictable). He must be the husband of one wife. Again, the Greek is 
very clear. This is the current situation, not anything dealing with the 
past. If somebody has had a tough past and becomes a Christian, that 
past is not reflected in this qualification. He also must have faithful 
children, which means children who are living at home and are young, 
not adult children who have moved out.
