In whatever manner we construct a NT witness that establishes RULERS within the body of Christ, rather than the operation of giftings in the form of bondservants of our Lord, we have begun to sew the veil that was rent from top to bottom.
The rule of men, other than (or in addition to) Jesus Christ our Lord, among the members of God's anointed body is anti-God's governance throughout the diversity of his own body.
If the greatest among us are to be servants to all, how have servants become masters of their own master's servants?
No man can have two masters.
