Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
The words ordain/ordained/ordination are used four times in the NKJ translation of the New Testament and none of them have anything to do with bestowing rank or offices on the members of the Church. In fact, in the NKJ, the term "ordination" is never used at all. What "ordained" is used for though is to describe the choice God made for the judgement of the world. Different translations often use different words, but the answer lies in the continuity of the record of scripture rather than in this word or that.

Proverbs 3:5,6 NKJV
Trust in Yehovah with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;
In ALL your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths.
Do not be wise in your own eyes; [superior attitude] fear [be in awe of] Yehovah and depart from evil.
It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones.
