1 Timothy 3:8 in Context — 1 Timothy 3
6 No un neófito, porque inflándose no caiga en juicio del diablo.
7 También conviene que tenga buen testimonio de los extraños, porque no caiga en afrenta y en lazo del diablo.
8 Los diáconos asimismo, [deben ser] honestos, no bilingües, no dados á mucho vino, no amadores de torpes ganancias;
9 Que tengan el misterio de la fe con limpia conciencia.
10 Y éstos también sean antes probados; y así ministren, si fueren sin crimen.
