The leadership yoke
The leader of a church is described by Paul in such terms that, as far as for behaviour it would seem that he need not sancification. But surely this is a blurriness of human understanding and so we a church goers generally back off the hardline and follow 'The Message' inference and choose 'men from among you whom everyone trusts' leaving off the 'without reproach' of many of the other versions which would force us to observe much more closely those we would have in charge of our daily church life. Rgw King James seems to also have an ameliorative phrasiology in calling for men of 'honest report'. pergaos refering to men with pasts such as Zaccheus who whole heartedly and obviously have turned that corner from the past to a blessed newness of life.
