Also to add unto that...we're all brethren and are all equal and are one in Christ. We're not supposed to have church fathers of course. Scripture says only pastors, deacons, bishops, and elders who must run the church. But they are not above us in any way either because we're just all brothers and sisters in Christ.
Matthew 23
8 But you, do not be called ‘Rabbi’; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren.
Galatians 3:28
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Matthew 20
25 But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them. 26 Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant.
Those church fathers are servants then xD
