What is a Apostle? (KAN)
I’m looking for passionate men with purpose. They must be filled with integrity and boldness. I’m not looking for cowards. I’m looking for men who will go anywhere and respond immediately to what I say. Their outlook must be extensive; looking at the whole at the expense of losing the one. I am not looking for cowards. I want men who are willing to be laughed at, scoffed at, and ridiculed. I don’t want cowards who will easily respond to negative remarks or run when the going gets rough. I am looking for thick-skinned men with foreheads as hard as flint. These men must have tender hearts and pioneer spirits. They must be willing to go places no one has gone. They must have a corporate mentality and be able to manage leaders. I provide training in communication skills and I fund the franchises. I don’t promise lucrative lifestyles but I guarantee adventure, security, and fulfillment in their work. These men must have a deep appreciation for accountability because they are responsible to manage people. I’m looking for builders who can lay a foundation that I can build on. I am a carpenter and I’m building a church. My name is Jesus and I’m looking for apostles.

Apostolic Community
An apostolic community is a community of ministries which have come together under the direction and vision of the apostle/overseer. Each ministry brings its individual gifts, vision, and resources together to be a part of a corporate vision, yet maintain there own ministry. Each member ministry benefits from the apostolic ministry of the community, as well as one another’s ministry. Together we become one for the sole purpose of advancing the Kingdom of God.
The relationship to the apostle is a vertical relationship that is facilitated through the organization’s leadership. Nevertheless, the apostle carries the vision and overall authority of the community. This authority should not be interpreted as dominance. Rather it should be received as Jesus’ example of servant hood. When the community allows the apostle/overseer to serve them with his gifting they will benefit. As well as when the member ministries are allowed to serve in their capacity the community benefits. We see this type of ministry in Ephesians 4:1-16 and Acts 2:40-47.
It is with this attitude that those who are considering to covenant as part of this community should approach their decision. A community will only be as strong as the relationships within. Relationships must be proper, responsible, and not selfish. Proper in authority – Responsible through accountability – Not selfish when considering their individual role and resources. It takes a deep trust and love to truly operate under this type of relationship, but when we do we will fulfill the prayer of Christ. We should be as one, even as He is one. Let us keep in mind we are here for His will and Kingdom.
Apostolic ministry is a foundational gift to the Body of Christ. With a primary concern for structure and order, apostolic ministry creates a platform for other ministry gifts to operate. APOSTOLIC MINISTRY OPERATES THROUGH APOSTOLIC STRUCTURE. The apostolic ministry has a responsibility to break, establish, and build the foundation of ministry. This does not lessen other ministry gifts, but strengthens their purpose. Each gift depends on the other to be complete. One without other will leave a gap in the overall effectiveness of ministry.
This community is committed to its vision and mission as commissioned by God. We will be committed to one another. We are committed to the Kingdom of God. Let us come together to reach the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and establish the Kingdom of God in the earth.

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.KJV
Eph 2:19-22 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.KJV
Eph 4:7-13 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
9(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;12 (#1)For the perfecting of the saints, for the (#2)work of the ministry, for the (#3)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:KJV Patter Church or the First Church
Acts 2:42-47 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved. KJV
