Matthew 23:8-10

Matthew 23:8-10 (MSG)
"Don't let people do that to you, put you on a pedestal like that. You all have a single Teacher, and you are all classmates. Don't set people up as experts over your life, letting them tell you what to do. Save that authority for God; let him tell you what to do.

There is only one Life-Leader for you and them—Christ.
