The unique characteristic of most black baptist churches is that each functions as their own independent body and does not have to answer to any higher authority except God. Therefore, an interim pastor can be a candidate for pastor if that's what the local church decides. It's totally their choice.

Why a pastor can not remove a deacon in the batist church?

Baptist churches are democracies. The church elects the deacons after recommendations by the congregation or pastor. The pastor is NOT in control of the church the members are except in Baptist churches that are called "independent" and are not affiliated with a large convection like the General Baptist or Southern Baptist. This is done so the pastor can not take too much control of the church. But the church members can vote to remove a deacon. These types of things are done at business meetings in the church.

How are pastors elevated to the office of bishop in the Baptist church?

Is there an office of a bishop in the Baptist church? I thought, according to the Bible, the pastor is the bishop, when it is talking about the qualifications of the bishop, it is talking about the qualifications of the pastor. I believe that their are two offices in the church. The office of the Pastor and the Deacon. God is the head, Pastor is the under shepherd and the deacons are servants to the pastor, the church and to God.
