    Should the deacons, once they are elders, give up their diaconate? Will they be both or just one of the two?
    I think this is a great question that should be discussed. I'd like to start this in another thread as a seperate topic located here http://www.baptistboard.com/showthread.php?p=1378786&posted=1#post1378786

    I do not find where "ministry leaders" are de facto deacons.
    Ministry leaders are servants and deacons are servants but not all servants are ministry leaders or deacons nor should all ministry leaders be deacon.


    Own the other hand, I have heard where all "misery leaders" were deacons.:laugh:
