I include this post within Theology 101 and Ecclesiology because people need this teaching now due to an off-balanced and misguided movement called the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). I also contrast apostles with elders, overseers, and pastors.

This gift can be very edifying for you and the church. It is not a preacher’s inspired sermon. And don’t despise it, either, says the Scripture.
