Jesus told his Disciples if you want to be the leader you must be the servant, Mathhew 20:24-28. Why do we have most leaders lording over others today? Have a blessed Sunday.

its natural, a leader must to lead while a servant must serve, not like been a slave ooooo... Elisha served while Elijah was d leader...... The reason we're to serve them is to learn from them, intercedes for us in prayer been d fact that they're kinda closer to God... and so on.

Let's see Paul
2 Corinthians 1:24 not that we rule [like dictators] over your faith, but rather we work with you for [the increase of] your joy; for in your faith you stand firm [in your strong conviction that Jesus of Nazareth—the Messiah—is the Son of God, through whom we obtain eternal salvation].
An error in the body of Christ is to think that pastors are closer to God than the "ordinary" Christian. In Christ, we are all the same, God loves and dwells within us the same, pastors and members alike. The "least" Christian is as close to God as the holiest pastor.
We submit to learn, and they lead to teach, not as lords or masters. For in Christ, we are equal.
