God Himself established hierarchies; there are pages and pages of it in the Old Testament, which are (like so many of the OT gifts and blessings) types and figures of what is planted in the New.

I don't expect you, within minutes, to see the point. But since heaven is full of heavenly hierarchies, I truly hope, with all my heart, that eventually you will.

There are differences between God’s hierarchies, and man’s.

For Christians, he said that each reports directly to the Father, through the authority of the Son.

HOWEVER, when we observe

The BIBLICAL PATTERN OF

CHURCH and congregational meetings

in I COR 14

we
can
see
that
HIERARCHY
IS
BRAZENLY
AND
EMPHATICALLY
MISSING

God
certainly
is
making a point
therein.
His Word
has no accidents.
