And what is the Chapter heading in the book of First Timothy? Its entitled as being qualifications for being a bishop right?

Uh . . . you won't find the chapter heading in the original Greek, or even in every Bible. That's what's called "editorial commentary". And it is dependent entirely on the opinion of the editors.

That's sort of along the lines of "if English was good enough for Jesus Christ, it's good enough for the schoolchildren of Texas!"

No argument from me! It is very plain what Paul was speaking of. He knows more than I do! :>)
