How should Christians view their teachers and leaders?

Answered in 1 source

Christians should view their teachers and leaders as servants of Christ, accountable to God's Word and not as figures to glorify excessively.

In 1 Corinthians 4:1-6, Paul emphasizes that apostles and ministers are merely servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. This perspective discourages the elevation of leaders beyond their role as servants. Rather than idolizing teachers, believers are called to evaluate the teachings based on how faithfully they align with Scripture. This prevents divisions and encourages unity in the body of Christ, as all leaders ultimately direct attention back to Jesus rather than themselves.
