Second you have changed my question into why does the church need leaders, not my question.
You said that Paul was the "small h head" of Christianity. Besides having no scriptural basis, and besides the fact that this is a ridiculous doctrine, it is also something that Paul and Peter both rejected in the clearest terms when others attempted similar things.

I didn't change your question, I answered it by showing that leaders or small h people in the church are needed. A small h head is leader, right? That's why they are needed, because the church needs small l leaders to help us follow the big L Leader and the big H Head. God gave these as gifts to the church (Eph 4:11, 1 Cor 12:28).
If you have a problem with the idea of Paul being the small h head of Christianity I suggest you ask why Vincent would say that, I was merely quoting him. Is Vincent wrong? Vincent was Presbyterian I thought.
