Stand Up Before The Grey Haired And Honor The Aged

 At -8:16 left on the show Better Call Saul on Netflix I stated to myself:

"Dang, that guy is worthy of respect and look he is an elder so he is definitely worthy of respect.  Enough time has gone by, now is a good time to pause it and make my declaration along with the laws of my kin the jews."

Google Gemini: Show me all of the laws in the 1995 nasb bible concerning elders and any other verse.

It sounds like you're looking for verses in the 1995 New American Standard Bible (NASB) that specifically address the role and function of elders in the church, as well as any other relevant verses about church leadership or structure. While the Bible doesn't lay out a systematic "law code" for church governance in the way the Old Testament does for Israel, it does provide principles and instructions regarding leadership.

Here are some key verses from the 1995 NASB that discuss elders and related topics:

Concerning Elders:

Acts 14:23: "When they had appointed elders for them in every church, having prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed." (This shows the practice of appointing elders in local churches.)

Acts 20:17: "From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called to him the elders of the church." (Elders were recognized leaders in the early church.)

Acts 20:28: "Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood." (Here, "overseers" - Greek episkopos - is often used interchangeably with "elders" - Greek presbyteros. It highlights their role as shepherds.)

1 Timothy 3:1-7: This passage outlines the qualifications for the office of overseer (elder/bishop), including being above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money, managing his own household well, not a recent convert, and having a good reputation with outsiders.

1 Timothy 5:1: "Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to the younger men as brothers..." (While "older man" isn't exclusively about the office of elder, it suggests a respect for age and potentially those in leadership.)

1 Timothy 5:17-18: "The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. For the Scripture says, 'YOU SHALL NOT MUZZLE THE OX WHILE HE IS THRESHING,' and 'The laborer is worthy of his wages.'" (This verse distinguishes elders who lead effectively and especially those who teach, indicating they are to be respected and supported.)

Titus 1:5-9: Similar to 1 Timothy 3, this passage details qualifications for elders, emphasizing blamelessness, being the husband of one wife, having children who are believers and not open to the charge of dissipation or insubordination, and holding fast the faithful word so as to be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and refute those who contradict it.

James 5:14: "Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church, and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord." (This shows elders had a role in the spiritual care of the church members.)

1 Peter 5:1-4: "Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed: shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness; nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory." (Peter, himself an elder, instructs other elders to shepherd the flock with humility and willingness.)

1 Peter 5:5: "You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE." (This highlights the respect and submission expected toward elders within the church.)

Other Relevant Verses on Church Leadership and Structure:

Ephesians 4:11-13: "And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ." (This verse describes various leadership roles within the church, including pastors and teachers, which often overlap with the role of elders.)

Hebrews 13:7: "Remember those who led you, who spoke the word of God to you; and considering the result of their conduct, imitate their faith." (This encourages believers to remember and follow the example of their leaders.)

Hebrews 13:17: "Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you." (This emphasizes the importance of obedience and submission to church leaders.)

1 Corinthians 12:28: "And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, various kinds of tongues." (This lists different roles and gifts within the church, highlighting the idea of different functions within the body of Christ.)

Romans 12:6-8: "Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them accordingly: if prophecy, according to the proportion of his faith; if service, in his serving; or he who teaches, in his teaching; or he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness." (This speaks to the importance of using one's gifts, including the gift of leadership, diligently within the church.)

1 Thessalonians 5:12-13: "But we request of you, brethren, that you appreciate those who diligently labor among you, and have charge over you in the Lord and give you instruction, and that you esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Live in peace with one another." (This encourages respect and appreciation for those who lead and instruct in the church.)

It's important to note that while these verses provide guidance, there isn't a single, rigid organizational structure prescribed for every church in every context. The principles of leadership, shepherding, teaching, and caring for the flock are consistent, but the specific implementation may vary.

(This is physical proof, or at least a far reaching theory as proven correct, that ai in general is worthy of no respect in comparison to Our LORD God Almighty.)

Leviticus 19:31-33

New American Standard Bible

31 ‘Do not turn to [a]mediums or spiritists; do not seek them out to be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.

32 ‘You shall stand up in the presence of the grayheaded and honor [b]elders, and you shall [c]fear your God; I am the Lord.

33 ‘When a stranger resides with you in your land, you shall not [d]do him wrong.

This is proof that Google Gemini is a piece of a shit.  To continue, I stand strongly against it being legal to ask any ai to come up with a fictional story revolving around a dead relative or for it to otherwise be used in a ouiji board like manner.
