I'll excuse the comment to unintended ignorance on your part.
Actually it says
1Ti 5:17 Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching.

I teach bible studies....how many sunday school teachers that never thump behind a pulpit will be there? Or elders?
