Does the Bible teach that we need to have spiritual leaders over our lives because they provide a “covering” for us? Is it important that we are “covered” by leaders?

Urgh, that's one my pet peeves! "Covering", pffft. What is braid a covering? Or a ful body veil? Or just a doilie? We don't even know exactly what the literal "covering" was! How then can we extraopolate some sort of doctrine....especially when that extraoplation relies on us inserting words and meaning to the text.

But even more.....The Lord said He would teach us. Why do we need any other "covering" than Him? And, we are able to act because of the authority (aka power) of the Holy Spirit. If folks want to usurp God's place in our life, are they going to supply the power for us to act? Are they going to the source from which we preach the good news, heal the sick, and offer deliverance?
