I was reading 1 Timothy 5:9 and was wondering how many years are threescore years and does this passage mean the church is not responsible for widows until this age?
Is it Biblical to have a woman deacon?
Can you show me the biblical position on the local church supporting a widow (indeed)? How the widow indeed definition works and where the example is given of the deacons being charged with assisting the bishop in the administration and dispersement of needed funds to the widows and any other needy believers that may be listed?
The Bible states that a Deacon shall be the husband of one wife. We have a situation of a man, having married a divorced woman, whom our pastor wants to have him be made a deacon. This is his first marriage, her second.
What is a tithe? Whom do we tithe to? Is it right to pay tithe to a Pastor or any minister of the church? The 10% of the income, is it gross or net?
