Re: “Five-fold ministry”?

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-emerging in what appears to me to be a blending of the Early Church movement, Evangelical a...
