Default Titles in LSM

I thought I'd start a new thread so that my question would not derail the thread on the Lee people remembered.
I believe Ohio wrote:
Quote:
The issue of control is systemic to the LC's, beginning with WL, then the workers, leaders, elders, serving ones, saints,
Can someone explain to me the order of leadership in the LSM/LC?
For example: What distinguishes a worker from a leader from an elder from a serving one.
Is there a 'totem pole' of sorts? I know every born again believer is a saint. How come Pastors are never mentioned, or apostles. Ephesians 4:11 describes the offices as:

And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

The LSM/LC uses terms not found in Ephesians 4:11.


(the Christian denominational/non-denominational church at the other extreme, outside the LSM denomination uses these titles as companies use titles for their management team. I've got that one figured out.)

So how does one climb up the ladder in the LSM/LC ?
Wearing long sleeved white shirts and ties, maybe?
