(1Ti 5:17) “Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.” “Double honor”: highly respected in a way that is demonstrated. Ephesians 4:11 says a pastor is “given” to the church. We live in a day in which we as a society respect authority less and less. This has spilled over into the church. Let us think and act as those influenced and in subjection to God’s Word.
