This message is of paramount importance for the church today.

According to Ephesians 4:10-16, the five-fold ministry was given to us until we attain unity in faith and knowledge of the Son of God, become perfect, and reach the fullness of Christ's stature. This means that we should no longer be like children who are easily influenced, but should be firmly grounded in our faith.

Looking at the moral decay and unrest in some churches today, we must ask ourselves critical questions to understand where we stand on God's timetable. Have we reached the stature of being a perfect man or come into the unity of the faith? Where is the harmony of walking and working with other believers, regardless of their race or creed, including the color of their skin?

Many individuals claim to have a calling from God, but they refuse to submit to God's authority over them. They claim to hear directly from God and do not need to be accountable to anyone. But who judges what they put forth as a revelation from God's Spirit? This is a total disregard for scripture. God did not call us to be islands to ourselves. He left us with each other for support and accountability.

The Holy Spirit has given nine spiritual gifts to the Church to help individuals grow and develop for service in the Lord's kingdom. Understanding and accepting these gifts is crucial to maximizing our potential for the kingdom of God. These gifts have the power to transform not only our own lives but also the lives of those around us.
