Messianic Apologetics

Can you give me an idea about the, or at least a, Messianic process of ordination? I see many leaders out there bearing titles such as: rabbi, pastor, teacher. What was the process they went about, getting ordained and receiving such a title?

Can you give me some basic guidelines for interpreting Scripture?
