What about people referred to as "Gyani" in the Gurdwara?


At the Gurdwara I used to go to, we had some people designated as Granthis, and the main Singh ji designated as Gyaniji.  People would seek out Gyaniji's attention to ask questions and ask for explanations of bani.


But it does appear that even a "Gyaniji" in the Gurdwara setting has no special magical powers from God like the Priest does in a Christian church.  Only the Priest can conduit God's power into the cracker and wine during Mass.  But in Gurdwara, anyone can bless the Karah Prashad.  Etc.
