Jesus is not against the titles themselves, he is against the pride that many (but not all) have over their position.
Using the title "Father" is no different than "Mister", "Madame", "Doctor", etc.
As long as the title is not used for pride, then it is perfectly acceptable.
If one does use it as a source of pride though, then it is condemenable. It is these people that Christ spoke against, not the titles themselves.
I hope that this and my last comment cleared up your confusion.

2) we don't call priests "Father" to be reminded of their authority but to show due respect for the office in which they hold as servants of Christ and ministers of His flock. God Bless

Well articulated point of view. I especially appreciated the end where you state that you "personally" disagree with the local Baptist calling himself "Pastor." At least you are consistent. While I think your interpretation of scripture and your conclusions are erroneous, you at least admit that they are your own "personal" beliefs. I think that many non-Catholic Christians see an oppressive Church where one does not exist. We believe our priests have been given an authority by Christ and..

@For3nity He made a video...I responded...this is a smokescreen to sidestep the issue. I share the gospel almost every day with people...this is something I do on the side.

@JustAnotherBeardo Talking about looking for meaning in the scriptures, I would rather focus for instance for all of us to know the meaning of "believing" in Jesus, rather than about calling our spiritual leader "Father".

@JustAnotherBeardo And I am not saying he is all about rules over love and faith. I said it's better to focus on love and holiness, rather than on title or mere word, for the same word could have different meaning depends on the context.
-
@JustAnotherBeardo I see 100Percent's point of not allowing ANY video responses. Say you were to make a video about Jesus and faith and it became very popular, getting hundreds of thousands of views. Then say an athiest were to post a video response to that, saying that God is not real. Every person that is seeing your video will get to see his now. You are pretty much indirectly supporing an atheist video and helping it to gain popularity. See the point.

@For3nity to be fair and for full disclosure your comment though is normally the type I would make too, I just have happened to watched the guy through a progression so I know that he is not all about rules over love and faith. but he is televising his explorations of the bible and his faith in these videos, is that a bad thing? its better to look and listen carefully before commenting, I often have to remind myself of that too. Cheers

Sorry but your fallible interpretaion simply doesnt match up to scripture & actually causes a conflict in scripture.
Im Matthew 23:9-10 you say Jesus is speaking of not having titles & mentions "Fathers" & "Teahers specifcally, & that St. Paul in 1Cor 4:15 says nothing of calling him "Father'
Well then your conflict begins in 1Cor 12:28 where it says, inpart, "1st Aposltes, 2nd Prophets, 3rd "TEACHERS"...All are titles & "Teachers" is a specific title.
How do you recify the conflict?

@OCCatholic And this was handled in my video...PLEASE, ALL OF YOU...PAY ATTENTION. The issue Jesus brought up was not to be called by a title...TEACHER DAN, FATHER DAVE, RABBI RANDY...it is different than seeing - yeah, that guy Dan over there - that is our teacher for this class. Please, folks...!!
