How do we know God appointed church leaders?

Answered in 1 source

God appoints church leaders through the Holy Spirit, as evidenced by Scripture and the actions of the apostles.

In Acts 20:28, Paul reminds the elders that they are made overseers by the Holy Spirit, affirming that church leadership is divinely ordained. This is echoed in Ephesians 4:11-12, where Paul states that Christ gave gifts to the church in the form of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. These roles are established by God to equip the saints for ministry and build up the body of Christ, emphasizing that it is God who ultimately calls and ordains leaders.
