1 Timothy 2:1; 1 Timothy 3:10; 1 Timothy 5:4

1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.

4 But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.
