What is the 'APOSTOLIC'?
The term ‘apostolic’ is defined as an adjective.  Most people use this
term when they are referring to or relating to the Twelve Apostles of the
Lamb.  At the Apostolic School of Ministry the term can also be used as
a noun.

The success of the church is not one person or one ministry, it takes
many.  Jesus Himself left us with an on-going ministry that will
accomplish His dream and vision for the church.  As such, every
congregation needs to be drawing on an anointing from an apostolic
center.

The Word of God describes the Apostles and the Prophets as the
foundation of the church in Ephesians 2:20.  In Ephesians 4:11-13 we
see the role of the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teacher in
the equipping of the Saints; a foundation for God’s purpose
“apostolically”.  The leadership roles of the Apostles, the Prophet, and
the Teacher are seen in 1 Corinthians 12:28.  The role of the Apostle
and the Prophet in today’s Body of Christ is still relevant.

The ‘Apostolic’ is not a set of rules, but a movement.  It is a people
ministry and a ministry of people.  As on the day of Pentecost, the
‘Apostolic’ is defined by the manifestations of Signs, Wonders, and
Miracles: an infilling of the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues, healing of
the sick, and even raising of the dead.  This is how the Kingdom will
grow and become what God wants.  

The ‘Apostolic’ is the ‘Anointing’ that God gave to the Apostles and the
Prophets.  This anointing will allow them to lay Christ into the Spirits of
men as “Foundations and Fountains” for the Believer’s lives.  If we can
sum up the ‘Apostolic Doctrine’ it will be this:  it is the message which
instills Christ Jesus into every believer, establishing in them a firm
foundation of truth and removing ‘self’ from their expression of Kingdom
Life, while releasing Divine Authority in their daily living.

The courses here at the Apostolic School of Ministry are designed to
further the students understanding of the Five-Fold Ministry and the
Offices of the Apostle, the Prophet, the Teacher, the Evangelist, and the
Pastor.
