The Bishop's shepherd's staff called a crozier is based on Jesus calling Peter and the Apostles to feed his sheep and lead his flock. A bishop bears the crozier as "shepherd of the flock of God", See John 21:15-17. Crosiers are used by high ranking religious leaders in the following Christian Churches: • Roman Catholic Church • Eastern Orthodox Church • Anglican Communion • Some Lutheran and Pentecostal Churches Why don't fundamentalist Christian Churches who take the Bible literally, not have the scriptural office of bishop? With love in Christ.
