2 EPHESIANS 4:11-13 "And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 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.

3 The Great Commission MARK 16:15-16 And He said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

4 FAITH COMETH BY HEARING
ROMANS 10:13-17 13 For whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! 17 So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

5 MAKE SURE OF YOUR CALLING
II PETER 1:10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall.

6 THE GOALS OF PREACHING Preaching is the main work of God’s servants. Preaching has the following components: 1. INFORMATION Creating awareness amongst people about the Word of God; introducing the Gospel of Truth to the whole world 2. INSTRUCTION Acquiring of knowledge by the people through a clear understanding the mysteries of the Scriptures 3. ACCEPTANCE By faith, people must be lead to believe (and obey) the Word of God as Absolute Truth 4. MOTIVATION Motivating people by offering them an invitation to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour for salvation and forgiveness of sins 5. PERSUASION The assertion of Biblical truths and principles into people's lives in order for them to be counted worthy for the Kingdom

7 What is the Gospel? -- to preach the good news
Greek lexicon - euaggelizo {yoo-ang-ghel-id'-zo} -- to preach the good news -- to proclaim glad tidings -- to instruct men concerning the things that pertain to Christian salvation; Jesus Christ as having suffered death on the cross procured eternal salvation for the believers in the kingdom of God

8 What is the Gospel? ROMANS 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. EPHESIANS 1:13 In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise.

9 What is the Gospel? ROMANS 16:25-26
Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith.

10 What is the Gospel? I THESSALONIANS 1:5
For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost. II TIMOTHY 1:8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God.

11 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
JOHN 3:16-19 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved… 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

12 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
JOHN 5:24 “ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”

13 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
GOD SIN MAN UNBELIEF DISOBEDIENCE ROMANS 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. ROMANS 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.

14 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
GOD SIN UNBELIEF DISOBEDIENCE MAN JESUS CHRIST I JOHN 2:2 - And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world. ROMANS 3: Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

15 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
GOD MAN MEDIATOR* I TIM 2:5- “For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; REDEEMER* ISAIAH 59:20- “And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. SAVIOUR AND LORD* LUKE 2:11- For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. ADVOCATE* - I JOHN 2:1 - And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

16 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
GOD MAN II CORINTHIANS 5:19- “To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself. I TIMOTHY 3:16 – “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh.”

17 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
GOD MAN COLOSSIANS 1:14, 15 – “In whom we have redemption through his blood, [even] the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: COLOSSIANS 2:9- For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

18 THE GOSPEL IN PLAIN VIEW
GOD MAN ISAIAH 45:21 – “And [there is] no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; [there is] none beside me. HEBREWS 9:22 – “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.”

19 THE DUAL NATURE of JESUS CHRIST
MAN GOD Tempted by the Devil (Mat. 4:4) Overcame by the Word Hungered for food (Mark.11:12) - Fed 5,000/Bread of Life (Jn 6:10) Got Tired (Mark. 4:39) Rebuked the Storm (Mark. 4:39) Wept (John 11:35) Raised the Dead (Lazarus) Died (Mark 15:37) Rose Again (Luke 24:6) Not Over 50 yrs old “Before Abraham, I AM” But have seen Abraham “I am that Bread of Life” “I am that ROCK in the wilderness…”

20 THE “OFFICES” of GOD Lord (Father) Jesus (Son) Christ (Holy Spirit)
MAN FATHERHOOD SPIRIT ETERNAL OMNIPOTENT OMNISCIENT INFINITE SONSHIP SAVIOUR HEALER HAD BEGINNING

21 THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST (HUSBAND) & THE CHURCH (WIFE)
EPHESIANS 5:23, 30, 31, 32 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

22 FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS, TEACHERS
The WORD BRIDEGROOM HEAD CHRIST “ Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.” REV. 19:7 “Let the mind of Christ be in you.” NINE GIFTS Word of Wisdom; Knowledge; Faith; Divine Healing; Miracles; Prophesy; Discernment; Tongues; Interpretation 1 Cor 12:7-11 BODY CHURCH NINE FRUITS But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance (Gal.5:22-23) Bride FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS, TEACHERS

23 THE FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY OF EPHESIANS 4:11-13
"And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 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.

24 7-FOLD PURPOSE OF THE FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY
"And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the : (1) perfecting of the saints, for the (2) work of the ministry, for the (3) edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all (4) come in the unity of the faith, and (5) of the knowledge of the Son of God, (6) unto a perfect man, (7) unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.

25 WORK OF THE MINISTRY MATTHEW 20: "But Jesus called them, and said, "Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

26 UNITY in the FAITH I CORINTHIANS 1: Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? I CORINTHIANS 1:10 - Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

28 DEFINITION OF OFFICES APOSTLES PROPHETS EVANGELISTS PASTORS TEACHERS

29 DEFINITION OF OFFICES APOSTLES
The word "apostle" means "one that's sent.” A missionary is an apostle. The word "missionary" means "one sent." The apostle is a special man. He's a setter-in-order. He's a man that's sent from God to set the things in order.

30 DEFINITION OF OFFICES PROPHETS
The prophet is a special man. A prophet is a man of whom the Word of the Lord comes to. He has “Thus SAITH THE LORD”. A prophet foresees way off things that are coming. He sees the cup of God's wrath, full, before it is filled. Prophets are foreordained.

31 DEFINITION OF OFFICES PROPHETS
The Bible said, "If there be one among you spiritual or a prophet, I, the Lord, will make Myself known unto him, speak to him in visions, and reveal Myself in dreams. And if what this man says comes to pass, then hear him, for I am with him. If it doesn't, then don't hear him. I'm not with him. Don't fear him." DEUTERONOMY 18:20-22

32 DEFINITION OF OFFICES PROPHETS
(1) “SEER” OF VISIONS; (2) HAS “THUS SAITH THE LORD” ; (3) HAS A GIFT OF DISCERNMENT; (4) CAN PROPHESY AND COMES TO PASS; (5) CAN INTERPRET DREAMS; (6) STAYS SOLIDLY IN THE WORD; (7) TAKES NO GLORY UPON HIMSELF

33 DEFINITION OF OFFICES EVANGELISTS
The evangelist is a man that's burning like a fireball. He runs into a city and preaches his message, and gets out of there again to go somewhere else to preach. He brings revival amongst churches and preaches convicting messages amongst sinners.

34 DEFINITION OF OFFICES PASTORS
The pastor is the burden-bearer; he's the ox of the team . The full and complete authority of the church is the pastor. That’s the order of the Bible. There's no one above the elder. The elder is the man. Bishop is the office of the man.

35 PASTORAL QUALIFICATIONS (I TIMOTHY 3:1-7) ¶ This [is] a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

36 Apostle Peter had a wife
MATTHEW 8:14 - And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.

37 DEFINITION OF OFFICES TEACHERS
The teacher is a special man. He sets back under the anointing of the Spirit and is able to take the Words and put them together by the Holy Spirit, that the pastor or evangelist either one could not compare with him. Preaching usually catches the sinner, brings him under condemnation by the Word. But teaching places a man positionally what he is. And we can never rightly be able to have faith until positionally we know what we are.

38 DEFINITION OF OFFICES TEACHERS
Paul told Timothy, "Study It, rightly dividing the Word of God which is Truth." There's three musts in the Scripture. In using God's Word there is three things that we must not do.. We must not misinterpret the Word. You say, "Well, I believe It means this." It means just what it says. It needs no interpreter. We must not misplace the Word. And we must not dislocate the Word (Heb 13:8). And if we would do either of these, it throws the whole Bible in a confusion and in a chaos.

39 WOMEN PREACHERS? 1 Corinthians 14:34-37 states: "Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but [they are commanded] to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.“ 1 Timothy 2:11-15 clearly states: "Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety."

40 WARNING ON FALSE TEACHERS
MATTHEW 24:24- For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect. MATTHEW 7:15- Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. ACTS 20: For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. ROMANS 16:17- Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

41 The NICOLAITANES SYSTEM
REVELATION 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. REVELATION 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.

42 NICOLAITANES SYSTEM Nicolaitane, comes from two Greek words: Nikao which means "to conquer", and Lao which means "the laity". Nicolaitane means, "to conquer the laity". The Nicolaitane doctrine was "the corruption of the clergy as they sought political power amongst themselves.” Nicolaitanism is organization, humanizing the leadership of the church, and thereby deposing the Spirit. Man over man.
