And he gave the APOSTLES, the PROPHETS, the EVANGELISTS, the SHEPHERDS and TEACHERS, to EQUIP the SAINTS for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 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, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,

Now there are varieties of GIFTS (spirit), but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of SERVICE (Jesus), but the same Lord; and there are varieties of ACTIVITYS (FATHER), but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. To each is given the manifestation of the SPIRIT for the common good. For to one is given through the Spirit the UTTERANCE of WISDOM, and to another the UTTERANCE of KNOWLEDGE according to the same Spirit,

Romans 12:3-8 ESV / 

For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching;

1 cor 12:28

APOSTLE

1 Corinthians 4:9-13

For I think that God has exhibited us apostles as last of all, like men sentenced to death, because we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men. We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute. To the present hour we hunger and thirst, we are poorly dressed and buffeted and homeless, and we labor, working with our own hands. When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we endure; when slandered, we entreat. We have become, and are still, like the scum of the world, the refuse of all things.
