Ministers ordained by Jesus for the New Testament church today

Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...

After Jesus arose, HE gave to the church ministers for the edification of the Body of Christ.

Ephesians 4 ...  11 And HE (Jesus) gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;  12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:  13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

Some:  apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers

Most people know about evangelists, pastors, and teachers, but what about apostles and prophets?

A large number of churches today teach there are no more apostles or prophets today.

But I know of no place in the Bible showing the removal of either apostles or prophets from the New Testament church.

Was Paul the 12th apostle?  Did Paul replace Judas as an apostle?  Was Paul the last apostle?

No, Matthias was the 12th apostle, the apostle who replaced Judas.  (See Romans 1:21-26)

Paul was persecuting the followers of Jesus even after Jesus was crucified and resurrected.

Paul was not the last apostle, but one of the first of the New Testament apostles given by Jesus to the church for the work of the ministry, as stated in Ephesians 4.

Concerning prophets:  Are there any examples of prophets in the New Testament Bible working in the New Testament church?

Yes, there are examples.  Paul traveled with a prophet, Silas.  Also two examples are given in the book of Acts showing Agabus, a prophet, working in the New Testament church.

What about such things as:  minister of music, pope, archbishop, vicar?  Are these in Bible?

In this Podcast, I will share with you what God showed me to be the work of apostles and prophets.

It is critical to have the church set up according to the New Testament Bible, as Jesus set up the church.  

To add anything to the church or to take anything away from the church, as written in the Bible, is to allow antichrist to come into the church and rule over the Bible.
