The Church in Maturity (1/5)
October 26th, 2009 — kingfisherchurchHere’s the first talk from the new evening series “The Church in Maturity”
A year ago, The Hoy Spirit challenged Kingfisher Network with the words, “Where are the mature?” Over the past year we have been responding to that prophetic word, and now, as the Lord continues to direct and guide us, he is turning our attention to the His own strategy for bringing about maturity: “He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip Godʼs people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ, until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of Godʼs Son that we will be mature and full grown in the Lord, measuring up to the full stature of Christ.” (Ephesians 4: 11 - 13, NLT). As He challenges us to become a church in maturity, so He is in the process of restoring the ʻfivefold ministry to the church, calling the church to embody all five attributes. To be mature and full grown in the Lord, these five ministries must be fully restored to the Church.
The title of this talk is “The Apostolic Church”
