Pastor Plek is joined by Pastor James Foster to answer the question:
My question is around Acts 6. In this situation, the disciples ask for seven faithful people. Although it doesn't seem to actually say the noun deacon, it seems to refer to the same verb serving as used in other locations like 1st Timothy. So in this circumstance is it inferring that the disciples in this verse are elders? And then the servants are deacons?
