Appointment of Elders and DeaconsA study of the appointment to office of elders and deacons in the local congregation. In some people's minds there is a problem in thinking of any position in the church as an official position. So we give considerable attention to whether elders and deacons are appointed as "officers" in the church.

Qualifications of Elders and Deacons Part 1Begins to look at the credentials of elders and deacons, especially that they must be blameless.
