Correct.
"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." Acts 20:28 (NAS)
1 Peter 5:1-4, the apostle Peter tells his fellow
elders:
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.
1 Peter 5:1-4 (NAS)
