We will see in "that day" who has titles and who has functions. That is why I am not really interested in titles. Only the ones that pass the Bema are real.
So try to function, according to your strengths, and your opportunities, and let the Master (
Gk kurios) deal with appelations. Peter was named by Jesus. He didn't get to pick his own name.
I know, I know: Saul became Paul, and "Watchman" Nee and "Witness" Lee were 'raised up', but really I don't see compelling precedents there, nor does history seem to bear that out.
Instead I see titles becoming bones of contention. Not worth it. Just function. Let God sort things out. Jesus didn't give us "Roberts Rules of Order". He just said "love one another".
