Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers. Spiritual Gifts As more you deposit as more you withdraw. Ephesians Chapter 4,4-7 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. And 11-16 11 And he 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: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. Wisdom word: As more you deposit as more you withdraw. 2 Corinthians Chapter 9,6 6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. This prinsippal also work for the spirutal prinsipal. As we know what Adam that was a soul Human did wrong in the spirit ralm and therfore also enter into the fysical realm. So what He did in the spiritual realm also affected the fysical realm. The fysical realm also affect the spiritual realm. So is it what affect the fyscial also affect the spirutal. 1 Corinthians Chapter 2,15 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. Without excplain this any forther i am convice I am on right track . Let us now come to the point. I see 5 Main wells/ Jars. The name of them is this: Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers; There are 9 Spiritul mercy gifts. (What i know about) 1. Wisdom speech (1 Corinthians Chapter 12,8) For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom .......... 2. Words of knowledge 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,8 ........; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 3. Faith gifts 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,9 To another faith by the same Spirit; ......... 4. Spiritual (Mercy) Gifts of healing 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,9 ............to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 5. The power to do miracles 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,10 To another the working of miracles; ......... 6. Profetisk gave 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy 7. Gift of (test) spirits 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,10 ......to another discerning of spirits;..... 8. Different kinds of tongues 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,10 ......to another divers kinds of tongues; to another........ 9. Tydning av tunger 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,10 ......to another the interpretation of tongues: ___________________________________________________________ Apostel have this function From the Greek word apostolos, which means one sent forth. Apostles are visionary people with pioneering spirit. They work and flow trough all the spirutal gifts. Matthew Chapter 10,1-8 1 And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. 5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. 7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Look at the apostel work areas: The apostle will make an evangelist, hold big promotions and get people saved. Apostle will make a teachers work, by teaching and establishing of the faithful (and new converts). The apostle will do work of a prophet, by correcting and speak into the churchs present and future. Apostelen vil gjøre en pastors gjerning, ved å vokte og være hyrde for flokken for en tid - til en lokal hyrde (pastor) er innsatt. Prophets have also function; One that hears and listens to God. The Prophet foretells and speak out revelations from God. This is the gift of the prophet work: His wells (The gift I will call wells. I will expleain this better later on.): The prophetic gift is of course the gift that is most prominent for the Prophet. Words of wisdom, Words of knowledge Gift of spirits. Evangelists have this function One that comes with good news and that is more than willing to share the message. Evangelist enjoy spending time together with non-Christians and often resemble other Christians in that there are many more that need to be reached with the gospel. Evangelists are familiar with Gods Word and make it relevant for non-Christians. This is the gift of the Evangelists work: 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,28 ........after that miracles, then gifts of healings ......... His wells (The gift I will call wells. I will expleain this better later on.) Miracles The gift of healings Pastors (Shepherd) have this function One who is the shepherd of Gods people who have a warm heart for others and takes care of them. One who sees the need, to comfort and encourage others. Many pastors spend most of their time together with other Christians. They tend to know empathy with others and exhibiting much patience when someone needs help. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. (John 10:11) This is the gifts of Pastors/ Shepherds work: Words of wisdom Knowledge Interpretation of tongues Test of the spirits Teachers have this function: One who maintains the truth and the truth to be exciting. The teacher is always looking for how to disclose it (Enlight the truth) and make it relevant. The word teacher is translated from the Greek didaskalos which means teacher, mentor, master. A teacher is therefore one who educate and teaches. The gift to educate is GOD given. And Teaching is like watering ( To sprinkel water as Paul talkes about). 1 Corinthians Chapter 3,6 6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. -------------------------------------------- I Asked Jesus about what was the diffrent between a preacher and a bibel teacher: i belive He said something like this: A bibel teacher is focused on showing the soultion for his conclusions. A preacher is more focused on showing his conclusion. Quote from Patty: Teachers teach. Pastors should help us understand. -------------------------------------------- This is the teachers gift: A teacher gift can often work with another service gift. Service or the Office: One can have a service as pastor and learn Prophet and teacher Evangelist and teacher Iam not sure about what kind of gifts this teacher have but i guess it can be the gifts of a prophet and/Or evangelist. I will mention this: Before you can enter this gifts the Key-opner is to be baptism in The Holy Spirit! I will suggest to also be baptist (Your Whole body under water) in water. Gifts of the Spirit are the gifts that God gives to us. These gifts is the Holy Spirit that manifests itself in a visible manner. All these gifts are the result of the Spirits fullness, what we call Spirit baptism. When we become spiritual baptism, these gifts available to us, and by operating in the fullness of the Spirit gifts will start showing up in our lives. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tips: Spend alot of time with Jesus, The Holy spirit and Father and the anoithing will increase, revelation will incrase and understand how to use these gifts; to unlock these gifts funksjon in a higher level. 2 Peter Chapter 3 18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. ------------------------------------------------- Matthew Chapter 3,11 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit, and with fire: Act. 1,8 8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Mark Chapter 16 15, And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. ------------------------------------------------------- Okay Now comes the point; It took longer time and more words then I was prepared for. I was like only supposed to tell the revelation i think i got from my experience with this gifts. But on the road you also got to learn something; myself also learn something: Romans Chapter 2,21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? ________________________ Yes i got alot of help with this Note From googel translation and other sources there are NO point for me to invent the wheel when it is allready invented. ________________________ My main thoughts before this note was made was to make you understand something that I belive I have a glimps of: how to increase your anoiting or skills in the spirutal gifts that is allready given to you. To do this I wanted to show you about the gifts and there funksjons also the offices. I have talked about the gifts as Wells This beacuse I belive and kind of see the gifts as wells that can contain faith let us mesaur the faith in a Substance accuring to what kind of faith it is from: experience, from The word. Experience as puder and The Word as liquid. (They may not be any point in this illustration I give about what kind of measure faith is measured in.) Understand that it is possibel to grow in the gifts: Ephesians Chapter 4,15 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: Also vers 7 is important. 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Okey then, I will tray to make a picture of a well on this well I will make name and substance inside it. You see the water her as blue: and the grey as from the word. Some Jar/wells are much substance and puder inside other are not one are over flowed with much Expereince and Word. (I will show a picture of this: Jar/wells.) Wisdom word: As more you deposit as more you withdraw. If you are Holy Spirit Filled but the gifts is kind of not showing much I will recomend you to begin to deposit Faith using the WORD of GOD as ground foundation and experience for your Faith as platform and act upon it! Begin to exersices FAITH! Into this diffrent Wells/Jars it will increase more and more into you one day will find it VERY easy to pray for healing, speak out wisdom , Words of knowledge ...... As more you deposit/use for example the Well/Jar that has the name Healing as more do you withdraw from the Jar. If you use it much then I belive the prinsipal what you sow will harvest; will manifest. To use this gifts you most have your faith based on the WORD of GOD then from that you can stand on the platform and exersices it. Romans Chapter 10,17 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Of curse some have more grace to act upon healing gifts , prophetic gifts accurding to there offices. All the gift is given from The Holy Spirit AS HE WISH. But I belive as beliver we can work in them all, many or less but not flowing trough them all strong if you are not an apostel. It is posibel for a Shepherd to prophecy this do not mean he flows strong in this gift or are a prophet. And for a evanglist to work strong and flow strong in words of knowledge. 1 Corinthians Chapter 12,29-31 29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? 31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way. Ephesians Chapter 4,4-7 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 1 Corinthians 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. I belive and I kind of flow trough all the gifts and offices some are of curse much stronger then other but kind of flowing trough them all. (I say this not to brag but to let you know so you can let me serve you as the servant I am in the LORD.) ------------------------------------------------------ I wont proclaim this to be the truth but this is some of my thoughts and new understanding about this. Seek The bibel and GOD for the truth about this. Anyway we learning as long we are alive! ____________________________________________________ This Sources have helped me ALOT to understand more about the Gifts: betania-stathelle.no/podcast/sondagsmoter/taler_ppt/DET%20PERSONLIGE%20KALLET-%20De%20Fem%20Tjenestegavene%20for%20Alle.pdf https://translate.google.no/#no/en/kilder kingjamesbibleonline.org/book.php?book=1+Corinthians&chapter=12&verse= bibelfellesskapet.net/index.php/forkynnelse/forkynnelse/undervisning/378-andens-gaver bibelfellesskapet.net/index.php/forkynnelse/forkynnelse/undervisning/658-tjenestegavene
