6not a new convert, lest having been puffed up he may fall to a judgment of the devil;


In Context

3 not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre, but gentle, not contentious, not a lover of money,

4 his own house leading well, having children in subjection with all gravity,

5 (and if any one his own house how to lead hath not known, how an assembly of God shall he take care of?)

6 not a new convert, lest having been puffed up he may fall to a judgment of the devil;

7 and it behoveth him also to have a good testimony from those without, that he may not fall into reproach and a snare of the devil.

8 Ministrants — in like manner grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not given to filthy lucre,
