First, no second ERROR of the Day. Reading and Reading with UNDERSTANDING are two different animals.
second, why complain about other, just stick with the scriptures, I can care less what the Assembly of God denomination, the Roman Catholic, baptist...ect... think, only what God intended for us to learn, and KNOW. now please no more side shows ok, lets just stay within the word of God.
now do any of these qualification are in the WORK, NO, but in the person.now is all men MARRIED? no so if this was for only married men, then God is respector of PERSON. and that makes your argument FLAWED and in ERROR.
also, do all married men have children? NO, so again you assessment fails.
blameless? G423 ἀνεπίληπτος anepileptos (a-ne-piy'-leep-tos) adj.
1. not arrested.
2. (by implication) inculpable.
[from G1 (as a negative particle) and a derivative of G1949]
KJV: blameless, unrebukeable
Root(s): G1, G1949
now that right there is a dead give away. if you now are saved is NOT you old, or Past life forgiven? so if someone was arrested that disqualify many then. see how silly your reasoning is.
so try again, try some of the other qualifications...... (smile).
the ball is again in your court.

My dear friend...God bless you but all the stuff you just posted is nothing more than SMOKE screen to obscure the reality of the literal Word of God. NOTHING you posted is relative to our discussion.
Are all men married.?????? Not a serious argument.
Do all men have children??? Not a serious question.
Are ALL men blameless. That is not even in the equation al all.
Arrested??? That is not in the Scriptures either.
You see brother, those are all just conjectures in an effort to support what YOU WANT TO BELIEVE.
Here is the difference. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT ANY OF THOSE YPOTHECTICALS.
I only know ONE thing..........1 Timothy 3:1-2.............
"This is a true saying, If a
man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2A bishop then must be blameless, the
husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;".
I do not need to interpret that. I only need to READ it, GRASP it and FOLLOW IT.
If you do not want to do that........then DON"T! Remember,
I am not the enemy! All I have done is READ the Scripture, UNDERSTAND it, Posted it and believe it. You can do the very same thing. Believe it or reject it. It is just that simple.
Game........set, and match.
