Re: “Five-fold ministry”?

I've heard the term for decades and Ephesians 4:11 as a reference. Also "Full Gospel" ministry teaching. Where we come from, if Ephesians 4:11 is seen as only during Apostolic times, then our churches would see those as missing the full Gospel. I remember an acquaintance I had for awhile,...

Re: “Five-fold ministry”?

Thank you, OJ. That article is helpful. I see in the article that this terminology is re-emerging in what appears to me to be a blending of the Early Church movement, Evangelical and Charismatic practices. It does not seem to be associated with particular denominations but is gaining ground in inde...

Re: “Five-fold ministry”?

Is this teaching associated with a particular denomination? Is it found across denominations? In current usage, it's generally a charismatic/NAR concept. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostolic-Prophetic_Movement Thank you, OJ. That article is helpful. I see in the article that this terminology is ...

Re: “Five-fold ministry”?

I have heard the term used in the past, perhaps in the distant, dusty past.... It was familiar to me, but I couldn't recall the origin, or application of the term. So probably in either the Evangelical Bible college where I attended, or in a church I attended while there, in that "Mennonite-les...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

In places like Manhattan I expect people will learn they can just walk in front of them which will basically re-write the rules of right of way on the streets and highways allowing pedestrians, cyclists, scooter users, etc. to claim rights of way. It has the potential to greatly increase traffic co...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

It’s hard to imagine a future where self governing cars have carte Blanche to just mow people over and get away with it. If they do, perhaps we could carry car-disabling firearms to fire upon any autonomous vehicles before they kill us. Maybe a new business venture will provide wireless scrambling ...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

Also, it is substantially easier to design a self-driving vehicle that is constrained to a few square miles of one urban area with staff available to extract vehicles from pinches. I have some questions how self driving tech will work out in dense urban areas with pedestrian culture. Drivers that h...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

.... None of us have the capability to drill our own oil and refine it into gasoline in our backyards and farms. .... Actually, when I was a child, a farmer in our congregation DID refine his own oil, and sold it as well (but maybe not gasoline - I just remember the oil). (His main business was a d...

Re: Poll: Auto Accident Fatalities and Injuries

As a "car guy" myself (and as far back as I can recall), and also someone who participates on half a dozen different automobile forums, the majority opinion among such people (and it isn't all just men, either - there are some really sharp "car ladies" too) is that since the manu...
