If I do recant, Berk can be the first to stone me for it.
Maybe it'll make him feel better.

If it truly meant the husband of one wife, you'd have to take it exactly literally and that means any man who has been married more than once, regardless of whether the first marriage was ended by death, could not be a Bishop.

Sorry. Ron, the original language DOES NOT say what you are trying to claim. It says that he is a one-woman kind of man. That would not eliminate him if he were single, nor would it eliminate him if his first wife were dead. In my opinion, in would not eliminate him if he were divorced justly, and had remarried. It DOES eliminate him if he were not a he, but a she.

Sis Freeman is a good example, Sis Else Lund (who never married) is another. What of a man who never married, is he then disqualified to be a Bishop?

You can be second in the stoning line, Brett. Would you like that?

I don't think asking for your source is stoning you, Ron.  Nor is disagreement with your point.

No sir. I like you too much. I would not want you a goner. Bro, just because I disagree with you here doesn't mean I don't like you.
PM incoming.
