1 TIMOTHY 3:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.”
For those who serve well as deacons gain a good standing and great confidence in the faith that is in Christ Jesus — the paradosis (tradition) of diaconal service yields parrēsia (boldness/confidence) and a strong position (bathmos) in the community. Faithful diaconal labor produces both reputation and spiritual maturation.
