| Acts.20.28 | Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood. |
| Phil.1.1 | Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons: |
| 1Tim.3.1 | The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. |
| 1Tim.3.2 | Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, |
| Titus.1.7 | For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, |
| 1Pet.2.25 | For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. |
