The title ‘Pastor’ applies to the same group of men referred to as elders or bishops (Acts 20:17,28; 1 Peter 5:1-3). 2. There was always a plurality of “pastors” in every congregation (Acts 14:23; 20:17; Phil. 1:1). 3. We never find a congregation which is be shepherded by just one pastor. We never find pastors overseeing more than one congregation (1 Peter 5:2). We never find ‘youth’ pastors or ‘senior’ pastors. And we never find women serving as pastors. The qualifications are specific and include the qualification of being a man, who is the husband of one wife, having children who are believers (1 Timothy 3:1-4; Titus 1:5-9).
