Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the

church: the apostles, the prophets, the

evangelists, and the pastors and

teachers. Their responsibility is to equip

God’s people to do his work and build

up the church, the body of Christ…

EPHESIANS 4:11-12

…we will speak the truth in love, growing

in every way more and more like Christ,

who is the head of his body, the

church. He makes the whole body fit

together perfectly. As each part does its

own special work, it helps the other parts

grow, so that the whole body is healthy

and growing and full of love.

EPHESIANS 4:15-16

Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the

EPHESIANS 4:11-12

INFLOW “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.

Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of

living water will flow from within them.” By this he

meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him

were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not

been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.

JOHN 7:37-39

INFLOW And all the believers met together in one place and shared

everything they had. They sold their property and possessions and

shared the money with those in need. They worshiped together at

the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and

shared their meals with great joy and generosity—all the while

praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people…

ACTS 2:44-47

INFLOW

Students are not greater than their

teacher. But the student who is fully

trained will become like the teacher.
