RE>>Preachers of any denomination are no closer to God, nor more privy to His word, than any other Christian<<

And a young Christian can know it all in a moment!

You are in rebellion.

God has plainly told us to know those who are over you and you deny anyone being over you.

You need to find someone who is called to be a shepherd of souls and submit!

Those who say "Jesus is my only Lord, I will submit to Him only" deceive themselves.

It is Jesus who set up "teachers" for the benefit of Christians.

You are as a loose pin!

You have not repented of your rebellion even as of yet.

Eph 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Also:

Hebrews 13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

If you are not submitted somewhere to someone - then you are in the same
rebellion as the world is in except you claim to be submitted to Jesus.

How can you be submitted to Jesus if you rebel against those verses which are for your own protection.
