You apply a standard of appearance not taught in the bible to determine the qualification of those who would teach. This right is not given to you in the bible no matter your position or title.
You don't know my Pastor, unless I'm mistaken?
I know your bible. Knowing this is enough and it is not necessary to know your pastor nor his colleagues who teach the same things to know that what they teach is not taught in the bible. Those who teach what is not taught in the bible are not teaching what they are tasked to teach.
If you're gonna follow Jesus, you better be following a pastor and submitting to the 5 fold ministry. God uses authority and offices that he's ordained. Period.
If you are going to follow Jesus it is enough do and act as Jesus did and acted.
A man of stature somewhat tall, and comely, with very reverent countenance, such as the beholders may both love and fear, his hair of (the colour of) the chestnut, full ripe, plain to His ears, whence downwards it is more orient and curling and wavering about His shoulders. In the midst of His head is a seam or partition in His hair, after the manner of the Nazarenes. His forehead plain and very delicate; His face without spot or wrinkle, beautified with a lovely red; His nose and mouth so formed as nothing can be reprehended; His beard thickish, in colour like His hair, not very long, but forked
Publius Lentullus, Governor of Judea, addressed to Tiberius Caesar, Emperor of Rome
Your pastor would prohibit this man, Jesus, from his pulpit.
He will not ever say "Forget having a Pastor, all you need is to listen to me."
When someone who looks like Jesus is prohibited from a man's stage then that man is not following Jesus, he is setting himself up in Jesus' place. May God forgive you both.
Sorry.
It is not I to whom you should ask forgiveness
