I fully concur with the writer’s perspective. Jesus Himself made it clear that while “the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them, yet it shall not be so among you” (Matthew 20:25–26, NKJV). In the New Testament, leadership is not the privilege of one exalted individual but the shared function of the entire Body of Christ. Paul emphasizes that “to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good” (1 Corinthians 12:7, NIV), showing that every member has a role in edifying the church.

The early church reflected this model: leadership was not concentrated in a single head, but entrusted to a plurality of elders (Acts 14:23; Titus 1:5), with every believer participating in prayer, fellowship, teaching, and breaking bread (Acts 2:42–47). Authority was rooted not in human hierarchy but in Christ Himself, “the Head of the body, the church” (Colossians 1:18).

Thus, true biblical leadership is not about control but about service, equipping, and mutual submission (Ephesians 4:11–13; Ephesians 5:21).
