This was just a thought that i was pondering the other night, and this may not pertain to all protestants, but....If anyone is capable of understanding the Bible by themselves and can thus act as their own authority in Biblical interpretation, then why are there preachers and ministers? I know that we are all called to preach the gospels, but is there not still the imposition of authority of interpretation on to others? Also, if one then claims that a person need not follow the interpretation of the preacher or minister [say during a Sunday church service] then why would one even go to said church service if it were not to heed the interpretation of a "professional"?........
