ruling elder

Mr. Renville, who was a ruling elder in the church, took this position, and the members of the mission were not a unit against it.

For nearly all that time he has been a ruling elder in the church, and for ten years past a licensed exhorter.

The life of a ruling elder in the Church, and in the world, is like the erection of a beautiful building.

The third text for the divine right of the Ruling-Elder, is, 1 Tim.

How shall he be a good Ruling Elder, that doth not rule well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity?
