2 | Eph. 4:11 gifts applicable today? | Eph 4:12 | bro Raymond | 173070 | ||
I wrote a treatise in 2004 in defense of present day apostles (and prophets) because I became convinced through personal experience and later a study of Acts and the Epistles that all five offices are needed and are indeed witnessed today. (Please note that people in the Christian Church don't usually question whether Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers exist). In essence what I learned from my extended study was that even after the Twelve Apostles of Christ were named there were several other men called to the fivefold ministry including Paul (I Corinth. 15:3-9)and Barnabas (Acts 14:4,14)as well as James, the Lord's brother (Gal.1:18-19).For the existence of prophets, see also Acts, esp. Ac.11:27;21:10;15:32. see also Gal.1:8 for Paul's suggestion as to why apostles are needed-an apostle to each people group, possibly. | ||||||
