(I am of Paul, well I am of Apollos).
As far as im concerned everyone that labors in the kingdom and in the word are elders and are worthy of double honor.
I would hate to know that because of my comparisons within the ministry would cause someone to lose respect or honor for their leadership.
Not just because I am a preacher, but for the sake of the church there must be honor and respect for those chosen to be in the ministry.IMAO
