What are apostles and prophets? An apostle is "one who is sent as a delegate, an ambassador, a sent one". The capital "A" apostles were the ones who walked with Jesus, but there is still much need for apostolic gifting in the church today, laying healthy foundations and carrying the big-picture, kingdom culture of God. Apostles equip the church in being an apostolic people. Prophets help the church understand what God is saying to this group of people at this place and time, while being under the authority of the Bible. They are necessary in helping the church become a prophetic people, aware of God's presence and in step with His Word. God loves us enough to give guidance, direction, and correction to His people. Together, apostles and prophets equip the church to build well.
