How do we know the pastoral titles used today are unbiblical?

The use of lofty titles like 'Reverend' or 'Senior Pastor' can create a divide within the church and obscure the doctrine of the priesthood of all believers. Jesus Himself spoke against such honorific titles in Matthew 23:6-12, reminding His followers that they are part of a brotherhood devoid of hierarchies. The New Testament consistently refers to church leaders as servants rather than as titled individuals. By adhering to this model, churches can cultivate a culture of humility and accountability rather than one of pride and exclusivity.
