The Importance of the Five-Fold Ministry

[@kiwiperth1]

So many good words in there... 9:10 it takes three things to have a true ministry... - a gift, a calling, an anointing - your gift gives your ability - your calling gives your identity - your anointing gives you a purpose

[@mendesrodrigo7866]

Thank you so much for everything I believe I trust and I have faith in you God father Almighty and lord Jesus Christ thank you for your loving kindness and compassionate thank you I trust the process of life I trust in the flow of life and I trust myself thank you I trust in the timing of Devine thank you God for working my life thank you so much for everything I am grateful for everything that I have thank you I trust in the timing of Universe thank you for working my highest good thank you for providing me everything that I need thank you for all my guardian angels for supporting me and guiding me and blessings me everyday I received it all thank you I am so grateful for all the blessings after blessings and blessings everyday I achieve it all thank you I am so grateful for all the miracles and my presence I received it all thank you I am so grateful for everything that I have thank you for empowering me thank you for loving me for who I am thank you for choosing me thank you for the power I can transform my life thank you I can uplift myself thank you I can blessed myself thank you for fighting my battles thank you for being with me all the time thank you for today thank you for saving my life thank you I am alive thank you I am thankful for my abundance that surround me. I lost my job 2 years ago due to the pandemic and I was about giving up, but knowing God has brought me this far was for a purpose and I kept on looking on to him..The moment I was about giving up, I was introduced to a business by a man I met in a seminar I went to in Florida. This was not my first time hearing of such business but I took the risk Investin 1ooo USD and it was worth it. information@markhanfarmer , COM 4 weeks later I kept on getting earnings and I started using the money for Gods work. I am popular in Texas. Doing Gods work always give me joy. There is peace and joy in my mind . I am here to motivate you and tell you never to give up even though the situation seems so though. God has promised his children and he will surely do what he promised his children.

Great word Kris. I'm a called prophet just recently validated by my pastor. I'm really excited to see what happens in the coming years. I believe my city is an apostalic city!!

[@GaryGilesthevoice1]

Excellent teaching

[@idoldissr]

What I have observed among believers these days, is that there is an abundance of saints who claim to be prophets and/or apostles without the works of either ministry being in evidence. As a result, many who prophesy, do so out of their own spirit... they may even mean well... but if the Holy Spirit isn't the initiator of any word given, He will not obligate Himself to see that 'word' fulfilled... which is similar to what Elijah faced during his spiritual duel with the prophets of Baal on Mt Carmel... who proved to have no Heavenly authority... no matter how it may have hurt their' feelings. True Heavenly authority brings REAL, not imaginary, results, as Elijah demonstrated.

[@michaelcowley7138]

Yes that does happen 🤔 let’s edify further on healing and deliverance 🔥

[@CrossCultural-c7f]

I totally agree that the prophet & apostle are active today. I believe some people shrink their walk with God to what they intellectually understand. One consistent theme with God is that He wants to connect, really connect with His children. He loves each one of us. A follower of God through Jesus is a diligent student to study Scriptures, but as KV beautifully says, the more important priority is to know the author of Scriptues in the process of intellectually grasping the contents of Scriptures. I think God wants prophets & apostles to be a means of maturing individuals in the body. God wants His kids to make the choice to connect. Furthermore, He loves us enough to let us make choices about the motivation & speed in developing what He’s given us - my wording is vague because I feel uninformed about the language. And in this life journey, I think God wants His spiritual kids to be connected to each other. Deep. My brain is full. I need to sit down, take notes, draw diagrams so that I can be sure I am fluent in these concepts.

[@kennethstandridge1205]

Yeah the fact that Chris encourages you all to not worry so much about the scripture is proof that he is a False teacher. The scripture is God's divine word and you need nothing else. God has called us as the Bible says only for good works. Doesn't speak of any other calling. Read your Bibles and quit letting these wolves fool you.

@@kennethstandridge1205 - John 5:39-40 would be a good passage for you to reflect on: You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life. John 5:39‭-‬40 NKJV Memorizing a car manual does you no good if you never drive the car. The point of the Bible is to lead us into a relationship with Jesus, the Father and the Holy Spirit. I've never heard Kris discourage people from reading the Bible, as you suggested. That is a wrong characterization of what he says. But the point is to grow in relationship with God.

@@dagman85 bahaha. Good try. Thay scripture is exactly why Chris has you all fooled. That scripture is talking about Pharasees who didn't know the God of the Bible. Just the Bible.

So no, I believe you should reflect on that passage and many more. Quit letting Chris fill your head with emptiness.

Stunning.People need the correct info and the truth.If you just leave it...(the fact that people propagate there are no more Apostles and Prophets in these days)then it will cause major damage to the body of Christ. Never leave a void...then satan fills it.Fill it with the knowledge of God.Well done Prophet Kris.Now the body will continually be equipped and build up receiving grace and gifts.

[@kennethstandridge1205]

Nope it has left no void in our church. It has left us with actual Biblical knowledge and not this emotional, "feeling" based religion that they have made up and you're all falling for it. Sad thing is I was there for years and it will take God opening your eyes to really see His word for what it is and what it says. We know about that crazy school they have and they actually talk people into saying whatever comes to their mind and they call that a prophet. Chris is not a prophet or an Apostle. He meets no criteria and yes there is criteria. I pray God opens all your eyes before it's too late.

[@dagman85]

@@kennethstandridge1205 - vague accusations don't actually help anyone. I'm curious to know what biblical criteria you believe Kris doesn't meet with regard to being a prophet. When you don't provide any concrete evidence, people reading your comment have no way to judge if God has truly opened your eyes or if you've just been deceived by a lying spirit. However, vague and unsubstantiated accusations definitely tend to cause me to start drawing conclusions about the quality of your source.

What a needed and timely message back to God’s Word what the role of the five fold ministry is to equip the saints not her/his own ministry but so that “Eph 4:13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, “

[@only1rosette]

I love this common sense teaching. I'm subscribing this teaching reminds me of How my Pastor teaches about the 5fold ministry and grace. God bless you for helping to equipt the saints. I just happened to come across this (really lead by the Spirit) and I'll be subscribing and very interested in your books about you encounters with Christ. It is hard to talk about encounters where Jesus showed up and not get teary-eyed. His presence is more than enough but to know He chose to put His Spirit in us , my God its a privilege. Jesus came to visit me in a bathroom April 26th 2009 around 3am ... Told me who I was and what He called me to do. He was very clear and since then I've been to heaven 2 times, swam in the river of life with Jesus and the water went inside me I didn't get wet, another time He picked me up like a little toddler and placed me on His lap laying my head on His heart, then He began speaking to me and telling me to keep my ear to His heart and I'd always know what to say , do etc I Walked through a school with many rooms and a giant sophisticated door, that I had to be taught how to open. I walked through a field of beautiful flowers that were alive and colorful. I've had encounters with angels while praying and 2 times when I almost lost my life in a car, they literally lofted my car up like a toy...

[@jonycruz2430]

Love this teaching pure fire! Only thing I want to point out that was missed greatly. IMO. 1. Stating the scriptures that proof there was 25 apostles should have been presented cuz obviously it’s not clear to many believers. To finally hit the nail on the head without the shadow of the doubt. 2. The lord is not restoring the 5 fold. IMO There has always been those offices within certain people but they died without ever doing anything in that office cuz of their lack of faith in that doctrine. They perished with a demonic doctrine that was suppressing that calling in their life. 3. I would say he isn’t resorting but rather bring the church into full awareness of it and conviction to walk out the responsibly. I only saw the last 2 cuz many critics slam us for using the acronyms NAR. (New apostolic reformation)

To 4:30 you can argue that it was those who walked with Jesus who have that seat, other have the gifts. An apostles and Prophets are as good as they are Christ like with the fruits, but are you accurate in words and actions. It’s not always a joking matter and the when a prophet is 50/50 then they have abilities but not to be held over others.

[@hesedagape6122]

The five-fold miistry is the different ranks of clergy in the Early Church. There were up to 7 ranks 1. Apostles (remain as a Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Rabbi) 2. Prophets (remain as an Evangelist, pastor and Rabbi) 3. Evangelists(remain as a pastor and Rabbi) 4. Pastors (remain as a Rabbi) 5. Rabbis (Teachers is an overtranslation) 6. Presbyters 7. Deacons Presbyters and Deacons worked in Committees and were elected and ordained. Rabbis, Pastors, Evangelists, Prophets and Apostles were called the five-fold because you are ordained to the higher order but retain the ordination of the lower order. Note that for the Didache it uses a 3-fold ministry as is used in the historical liturgical churches - Anglican, Lutheran, Orthodox and Roman Catholic. They use Bishop(Apostle+Presbyter+Deacon Priest (Presbyter+Deacon) Deacon which compare in function to the Didaches ranking system of Apostle(Rabbi+Prophet+Apostle) Prophet(Rabbi+Prophet) Rabbi The prophet and rabbi Saul of Tarsus was consecrated as an Apostle but did not forfeit being a rabbi and prophet in the Church in Antioch as recorded in the Book of the Acts of the Apostles. The current nomenclature is to be careful though. A Deacon is a proclaimer of the Word in word and deed Bishop is a pastor of other clergy like Christ. So function is kept it is just nomenclature that changed as the elected boards of Presbyters and Deacons was phased out. So it is not that strange division between same rank of ministers where you can be an Apostle or a Prophet or an Evangelist or a Pastor or a Teacher. However it is a heirarchy of ranks that are folded on each other. The Anglican ranking looks like this in full 1.Bishop/Apostle 2. Dean/Prophet 3. Archdeacon/Evangelist 4. Canon/Pastor 5. Parish Priest/Priest in Charge/Teacher 6. Priest Assisting/Presbyter 7. Deacon If trying to replicate the five-fold ministry

[@PaulWashington..]

Ephesians 4 is the true government. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself chooses His Apostles and Prophets. The institutional church and all churches without His Spirit rejected His true ministers since about the time of Nero through today.

[@douglaspalenschat7451]

The problem with the word “gift.,“ Is that it is used both for the ministries given by Jesus as in Ephesians chapter 4, and is also applied to the manifestations of the Holy Spirit as in first Corinthians chapter 12. “Gifts” is also used in secular jargon such as a gifted athlete or musician. Kris you said that the callings of Jesus are “not gifts.” Actually Paul says they are (Ephesians 4:8). This is semantics of course, but you are correct that it is not a “gift” of the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit gifts are simply transient manifestations of the Holy Spirit delivered by a believer to solve a spiritual or physical problem. The callings, which Paul names “gifts“ are those that are permanent and can be called Ministries as well. So I appreciate your striving to distinguish the gifts that Jesus gives as “callings“ from the gifts that the Holy Spirit gives which are not callings but manifestations of the Spirit’s presence.

Did you know that when you study the actual scriptures, you will find that apostles and prophets, in fact, ARE NOT the foundation of the church? NO, if you read scripture within the context it was written (I know, it’s a bold idea!) you see Jesus is telling Peter that upon Peter’s CONFESSION (which is Christ is LORD) He will build His Church, and Christ Himself would be the Chief Cornerstone. In NO way did Jesus build His Church upon fallible, sinful humans who can’t even read scripture in context. He built His Church upon the confession that JESUS IS LORD! This is the Church I can run to, not away from. Any church saying it’s built on them is one to mark and avoid. Jesus is the foundation. Jesus is the chief cornerstone.
