1 Timothy 3:6-7

1 Timothy 3:6-7 AMP

and He must not be a new convert, so that he will not [behave stupidly and] become conceited [by appointment to this high office] and fall into the [same] condemnation incurred by the devil [for his arrogance and pride]. [Is 14:12-14] And he must have a good reputation and be well thought of by those outside the church, so that he will not be discredited and fall into the devil’s trap.
