The real issue is does the Bible allow for a special clergy class with bishops in the structure?
The answer is no! The only scriptural leadership allowed were a plurality of elders with in a specific congregation. There is no authorisation for someone to be over more than one congregation or one Arch bishop. The rules governing elders can be found in 1Timothy and Titus As for who is head of the church, that is Christ alone, (Colossians 1:18)
