The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: Col 3:3-4Luk 24:482Jn 1:1-15Rom 8:17-18Psa 73:24-251Pe 5:4Rev 1:91Jn 3:2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; Tit 1:71Ti 3:8Act 20:26-28Tit 3:11Ti 3:31Co 9:7Ezk 34:2-31Co 9:16-17 Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. 2Th 3:9Ezk 34:4Php 3:172Co 1:24Mat 20:25-261Ti 4:12Tit 2:7Act 20:28 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. Jas 1:121Co 9:25Isa 40:112Ti 4:81Jn 3:2Psa 23:1Rev 2:10Rev 3:11 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder.

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Jas 4:10Luk 14:11Pro 29:23Mat 23:12Luk 18:142Ch 32:26Luk 1:522Ch 12:12 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
