--------------------(12) Let the deacons {presently} be thehusbands of one wifed, ruling their childrenand their own households well.

3:2b - notice the verb "be" is present tense - {ειναι} [present infinitive in the Greek] the man must presently be the husband of one wife. To translate as "must have been" the husband of one wife would be a mistranslation and a distortion of God's word. The command here is that the man must currently have only one wife [ i.e. he can not be a bishop {pastor} in the church if he currently has multiple wives, i.e. polygamist] I Tim 3:12 gives the same requirement for deacons. See Acts 6:3 {first deacons?} - qualifications always have to do with a person's present submission to the Holy Spirit - qualifications never have to do with past sin. – see also Titus 1:5f - see note on I Tim. 3:12 below.

3:12d - {διακονοι [deacons] εστωσαν [must be] μιας [one] γυναικος [wife] ανδρες [husbands]} - estoesan {εστωσαν} is present tense imperative - To translate as "must have been the husband of one wife” would be a mistranslation and a distortion of God's word. Qualifications for deacons, elders, or bishops [overseers] are always based on a person's present relationship with the Lord, never on their past {See Acts 6:3} - see note on 3:2 above and Titus 1:5f. [If the qualifications were based on a person's past - Paul himself would be disqualified!]

First of all let me say that nothing in this article is intended to pass judgment upon anyone. Inmy understanding of scripture, I am guilty of breaking every commandment that has ever been written. So if I were to even consider passing judgment upon anyone, I, myself would be a thousand times more guilty than anyone.

I plan to here give a short five point analysis of the issue at hand - it includes the bishop {overseer; pastor} as well as the deacon, so both the verses pertaining to bishops and deacons are referred to in this analysis since the issues are the same for both.

Point #1 In both verse 2 and verse 12 of I Timothy 3 the verb in the verse in English is the present tense verb “be.” The verb “be” is -- according to every English dictionary and every English Grammar on the market - present tense. {Appendix #1 gives a definition from the Random House Dictionary of the English Language.} The word “be” in verse 2 comes from the Greek

word einai {ειναι} which is a present tense infinitive. The word “be” in verse 12 is the Greek

word estosan {εστωσαν} which is a present tense imperative [command] (According to every Greek Analytical Lexicon and every New Testament Greek Grammar on the market.) [Appendix #2 gives the analysis from the Analytical Greek Lexicon published by Zondervan Publishing ] Although it would be redundant -- the word “presently” could legitimately be inserted into the text without changing the original meaning of the text. -- A bishop or deacon “must presently be the husband of one wife.” However, to change the verse to the past tense -- A bishop or deacon “must have been the husband of one wife.” Is a rejection of every English dictionary and every Greek Lexicon on the market today. And is not supported by any Bible translation currently in production today. No matter what Bible translation you use, I can assure you in advance that if you look up I Timothy 3, it will use the present tense verb “be” and will not use the past tense when translating these two verses.

Point #2If you decide to change the text to the past tense, you should change every other appearance ofthese words where they are found in the New Testament. I have printed out both the King James Version of the texts [Appendix #3] and the Greek texts [Received Text - Appendix #4] for each of the verses involved along with Strong's Concordance numbers so that if anyone hasaccess to Strong's Concordance they can look the words up for themselves. Since the Greek alphabet is similar to our own English alphabet, you do not have to know Greek to be able to recognize the fact that these two Greek words are the same as the words in the other verses as they are in I Timothy 3. I have highlighted the words so that they can be quickly and easily recognized at a glance. But if someone would say, “ I'm not changing the meaning of these words in any place except in I Timothy 3.” That is being dishonest with the word of God. Either change the words everywhere they occur, or don't change them at all. However, there is not an English translation of the Bible today that supports changing these texts to the past tense.

Point #3 There are those who would say that polygamy was not an issue in Paul's day. To that I would say that I can't prove or disprove with absolute certainty that polygamy did or did not stop immediately prior to Paul's lifetime and did not resume until after his lifetime. But there are three things that we do know: 1) polygamy was common in the Old Testament times among both Jews and non-Jews 2) polygamy exists to this very day, and not as some slanderously say only among Mormons. In fact one of the ways Muslims convince young men to do suicide bombings is to convince them that if they die for the cause, there will be seven virgins waiting for them on the other side of death.

3) The Law of Moses only prohibits multiple marriages among the Levitical priests.Paul being a “pharisee” [Acts 26:5; Philippians 3:5], knowing this to be a fact is consistent with his teaching that as Christians we are a “kingdom of priests” and therefore we should not have more than one wife at a time. Point #4 “Divorce” by definition means that a person is free to re- marry [Deut. 24:1-2]. Divorce wasprimarily for the protection of the woman who had no other means of support. A widow [or widower] is free to re-marry, but “in the Lord.” [I Cor. 7:39]. Divorce is never required of believers even in the case of infidelity. Forgiveness and reconciliation are always God's first choice. But as Jesus told the pharisees, Moses permitted divorce in the case of infidelity [Mat.19:8-9] because of the hardness of the hearts of people. Unfortunately, divorce which in most cases is due to selfishness on the part of one or both parties is prevalent in our society. There is however one situation in which divorce is required. Although a believer is never permitted to marry an unbeliever, if a person who is married becomes a believer and the unbeliever wants out of the marriage, the believer is required to let them go and the believer isno longer bound -- i.e. is free to re-marry. [I Cor. 7:15] Therefore, if we say a divorced person cannot serve as pastor or deacon, we are saying that even in the case of I Cor. 7:15 where the individual is being obedient to the Lord in getting a divorce, obedience to the Lord is not sufficient for the person to be considered for serving as a pastor or deacon.

Point #5 Five is the number for grace in scripture [see - Use of Numbers in Scriptures at the above website] What is at stake here is not merely the translation of a couple of verses of scripture. There is a much higher principle at stake here. The issue is whether an individual is qualified to serve as a deacon or pastor as a result of his present relationship with the Lord or whether he can be disqualified because of past sin. In reading Acts chapter 6 it is apparent that the qualification was whether the men were presently filled with the Holy Spirit without referenceto their past [see Appendix #5]. Obviously if past sin of any kind were an issue, James the brother of Jesus would be disqualified from serving as a leader in the church at Jerusalem, since there is no evidence that he accepted the Lord until after Jesus' resurrection. Peter would be disqualified since on the very night Jesus was betrayed he cursed and swore that he never knew Jesus. Paul who wrote the letter to Timothy would be disqualified since he was responsible for the murder of Christians. We are all saved by grace, and it is only by grace that any of us are able to serve in any capacity for the Lord. As sinners saved by grace both our salvation and our ability to serve the Lord in any capacity is based 100% upon our present relationship with the Lord not our past. If we say that is true for everyone except divorcees then we are establishing a double standard, and God Himself condemns double standards throughout scripture. Either God's grace is sufficient for everyone, including divorcees, or it not sufficient for anyone.

I have also included in Appendix #6 a note from I Tim. 3 in the Hebrew-Greek Key Word King James Version Study Bible.

44.020 Acts Chapter 5-6

Appendix 6 [Note on I Tim. 3 in Hebrew-Greek Key Word King James Version Study Bible]

I Timothy 3:2 “ The phrase 'husband of one wife' does not mean that the bishop or the deacon was never married before else it would exclude a remarried widower (see I Tim. 3:12). Furthermore, it does not mean thatin order to become a bishop or a deacon, one must be married. In Romans 7:1-3, the Apostle Paul placed no restrictions upon a widower to remarry. The meaning ofthis phrase is that the bishop or the deacon should not be married to more than one woman simultaneously. In the Greek mias gunailkos (3391, 11135) meaning 'of one woman,' would have been better translated 'a one-woman husband.' The total context speaks of the moral conduct of the bishop and the deacon. He should be a man totally dedicated to his wife and not flirtatious (cf. Titus1:6) “
