What does the Bible say about the officers of the church?

The Bible discusses the structure and organization of the church extensively, especially in Ephesians 4, where it specifies the roles within the body of Christ. According to historic Reformed understanding, the church is governed by two primary offices—pastor-teacher and deacon. The pastor-teacher is responsible for the spiritual oversight and feeding of the congregation, while deacons serve the physical and service needs of the church community. This structure is seen as critical for the functioning and governance of the local church, as it maintains gospel integrity and order in worship.
