The nonsense is relying on the Greek translation.

The context if the chapter was the provision of Deacons serving the synogogue. Deacons do not serve the entire body of believers, they served the synogogue.

Deacons serving the syanogogue.

You can't be serious. Nowhere in the New Testament, is the Christian gathering called a synagogue. Deacons (instituted in Acts 7) had NOTHING to do with hte synagogues. They were and are servants who minister to the needs of the believers.
