NASB | Ephesians 4:11 And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 4:11 And [His gifts to the church were varied and] He Himself appointed some as apostles [special messengers, representatives], some as prophets [who speak a new message from God to the people], some as evangelists [who spread the good news of salvation], and some as pastors and teachers [to shepherd and guide and instruct], |
Subject: Willing to be Taught |
Bible Note: "Some, under the pretense of being taught of the Spirit of God, refuse to be instructed by books or by living men. This is not honoring of the Spirit of God. It is disrespect to Him, for if He gives to some of His servants more light than to others -- and it is clear He does -- then they are bound to give that light to others, and to use it for the good of the church. But if the other part of the church refuse to receive that light, to what end dose the Spirit of God give it? This would imply that there is a mistake somewhere in the economy of God's gifts and graces, which is managed by the Holy Spirit." --Charles H. Spurgeon |
