Ephesians 4:8 lets us know that “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men.” To accept the gift that God has given is to accept the people he has given.
To follow Jesus is to follow the people he has sent.
He gave us apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry. This is God's strategy for development in the church. As a disciple, you should be able to state categorically who you are learning from.
God's method is to have faithful men who will teach others also (2 Tim:2). In Acts 10:5, the angel sent to Cornelius did not preach the gospel to him, but told him to send for Peter. This is because the job to preach was given to men.
