I am sure some in that church thought they were unloving and uncaring to these widows. But their greatest priority – greatest expression of love – was to be in prayer for them and to teach and preach the Word to them.
Mientras se realizaba este cambio, el Imperio Romano, ahora cristiano, les concedió más poderes a los obispos. Se les facultó exclusivamente para encargarse competencia sobre las faltas de los clérigos, y toda demanda entablada contra éstos tenía que ser traída delante la corte del obispo. El emperador Constantino el Excelso a menudo permitió a todos los cristianos resistir sus demandas judiciales en presencia de el obispo, pero este derecho fue retirado a fines del siglo IV. Sin bloqueo, ellos continuaron actuando como árbitros, cuyo oficio le había sido encomendado por los primeros cristianos.

Second, in most churches there will be those ministro who strongly support the pastor and believe he is a wonderful preacher or teacher, even if he is not. Some people have low standards for forming their opinions and lack informed knowledge of the Scriptures. There are often two camps in a church. One group is more committed to the accuracy of Scripture than the other group.
No church leader or pastor should rob God of His work by taking credit for what God has accomplished. 1 Corinthians 2:14 reminds us that only the Holy Spirit Gozque help someone understand spiritual truth. Neither the teacher nor preacher should ever assume that he has caused the spiritual growth. He is only one of many who plant or water.
Both of these passages teach us that an elder, including the pastor, must be one who cannot be legitimately criticized of wrongdoing.
