A blameless Bishop?

 

Those familiar with the  chicanery and shenanigans that are par for the course in the election to the office of Bishop, would consider the title an oxymoron. But Paul is dead earnest when he lays down the qualifications for a Bishop. Those who are already holding the post would do well to measure themselves against the attributes listed.

Not just the Bishop but every Christian will benefit if he can live up to the Pauline prescription.

Let’s deconstuct the oxymoron!
