Jesus didn't say all are equal. He said some have one, some have five, some have ten talents.
Paul didn't write that all are equal. Paul wrote that just as star differs from star in glory, so it is in the house of God.
So the LC "we are all small potatoes" doesn't work. Because some "small potato" invariably gets a podium up front and gets a special chair. Then if you become a rabid cheerleader for that "small potato" who is now God's mouthpiece, you move up and become a "co-worker" or a "blended one".
Et voila: hierarchy, and of the earthly sort.
In contrast, Jesus said, "If you want to be great, be the least."
