This lesson on the Office of the Apostle is one with much needed details. I ask for your time and patience, It took me a while to compose this so I ask that you get comfortable and be taught by the Master...
Lesson 1 Link
Incase you didn't read The Office of the Apostle Explained, I suggest reading that one first. In this second part it is an addition with just a few points to think about. This one I pray, will not be as long as the first. I'll release information as the Lord instructs me to do.I was in my bed this morning and the Lord began to show me a few of Old Testiment Apostles. I will talk about them in this blog and show you their Apostolic Office eventhough they were not mentioned (in letter) in the Old Testiment.Remember in lesson 1 has the characteristics of an Apostle.

As you enter the Locker you unlock your religious needs be yours Bibles, crosses or music. And what home is complete without a statute or picture of an angel to watch over it?
First we will discuss the Apostolic Office of the first man created on earth. That man is ADAM.Get you bibles everyone because I will paraphrase the scripture for the sake of time.
Genesis 1:26-28
History: God had already created the everything except for humans before the 26th verse. The two important parts to these scriptures in Genesis that we will explore is:
1.v26 God said let us make man in our image and in our likeness to have DOMINION over everything in the earth.
Remember God is the true Apostle because he sets order in his kingdom. God also wanted us from the very beginning to obtain rulership just like him because we were created in his image and in his likeness. No not to be as God but to display his attributes. (See the Beatitudes for further studies).
We were made to rule.
We were made to be the head and not the tail.
We were made not to be the borrower but the lender.
We were made to be kings and queens over all living and creepy thing that lerks the earth. Over the fish, birds, animals, insects etc.....
DOMINION: power, authority, rulership over a set kingdom, providence, region, territory, religion, sect, government, and or any place where a leader is chosen, elected, or inherited, to rule.We can clearly see that we were blessed from the very beginning to have obtained such leadership.
All of the New Testiment Apostles can in one way or another testify to seeing the Lord in body or risen form. To identify a true Apostle, he or she must have seen the Lord at one point or another.
Check this out.......
Paul saw Jesus in the form of a bright light that blinded him on his way to Damascus.
Peter along with 11 others walked with Jesus personally.
Keep those in mind for what is about to come....
ADAM AND EVE both saw and walked with God daily. God gave them specific instructions not to eat of the forbidden tree. And when they did, they appeared to the Lord fully clothed because they were ashamed of their nakedness. Yes they were expelled from the garden but their DOMINION never was stripped from them.
Revelation: Eventhough we may sin and fall short to the glory of God, our gifts, callings, and offices could never be taken away from us because we are who God says we are in him. There is none perfect in their office. None of us are perfect. As soon as we stop looking at the mistakes of others and judging them, we make this world a better place. We can't even begin to remove the mote in somebody else eye when we have a log in our own. Remove the log from our own eyes first then we can see more clearly.
Next...
EVE. First female apostle in the bible. Although she was not recorded as such but didn't she have the same DOMINION as her husband? Ladies never let a denomination or anyone tell you that there were no female apostles and that they don't exist. Lets check the scripture on this one.
Genesis 1: 27-28
Paraphrased:
God created both male and female for them to work the earth and have DOMINION over everything. She was just as important as ADAM. They were to be fruitful and multiply. A man CAN NOT and I repeat CAN NOT have babies. That is the function of a WOMAN{ wounded man or man with a womb}.
MARY the WOMAN who birth the Chief Apostle JESUS the CHRIST also moved apostolically because she was CHOSEN by the Almight God the Father to bring forth the Greatest Apostle of them all. Which brings me another Old Testiment Apostle.
Remember the Apostles are the SENT ONES...
I want to touch briefly on ABRAHAM. Although he was a prophet, he also walked in the Office of the Apostle because he was SENT.
Genesis 12:1-4
ABRAHAM was instructed to leave the land where he was dwelling and go to the land that God was to show him and ABRAHAM done just that. Without question he packed up his family and left. God said that he will bless those who blessed him and curse those who cursed ABRAHAM. God commissioned ABRAHAM just as he commissioned us in Matthew to Go ye therefore teaching all that HE commands.....
ABRAHAM had that same Apostolic command in that very same chapter in Genesis when God told him to build an altar. He set up a church. Not to mention in the same verse the first part of that verse GOD himself APPEARED to ABRAHAM.(vs 7)
Not only did ABRAHAM receive his great commission but he also saw GOD. A mark of an apostle. ABRAHAM was later visited by God in Genesis 18:1-3. And the Lord APPEARED unto him in the Plains of Mam-re and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day.The rest of those three verses explained that ABRAHAM knew this was the Lord that had litarally visited him because 1. He seen God before & 2, he humbled himself before him.
How many of you Apostles can 100 percent say that you've sincerly saw the risen Lord? Not on TV, not in a dream, not in a vision. BUT sure as you see this blog, you've seen the Lord...?
Another Old Testiment Apostle was the Prophet ENOCH. Not too many of you will agree with this but ENOCH walked with God Genesis 5:22 for 300 years after having Methuselah. He lived for 365 years and God took him up.ENOCH is a book that I really wanted to see in the Bible. His life was sincerly an inspiration for all. ENOCH had secrets of the heavens, hell, and the earth. He recorded that fallen angels had sexual relations with mankind thus producing eunics and giants. His book wasn't cannonized into the Christian Bible because they said it was too mystical of a book to include. It was said that he was an astrologer not a prophet because of his knowledge of the stars.
Back to our scripture...
ENOCH having this knowledge carried the Apostolic Office because not only did he walk with God, but he never had a death. God took him whole. He is still alive today. Speculation: He will be the witnesses with Elijah to prepare for the return of Christ.
What was another commission of the Apostles? To preach the kingdom of God is at hand just as Jesus preached. ENOCH being an end-time witness will do just that....
The reason this study is important to learn is because God is coming back sooner than any of us realize. With that said, true Five Fold Ministry must be taught and implimented in our churches for the tribulation that is ahead. As I stated in Lesson 1, we don't need anymore new churches, we need to perfect the ones that are in existance.
Remember we are all one body in Christ and Jesus is our head. It is time to put aside denominations and false doctrines that has kept us in spiritual bondage for centuries. The Bible says the word is a lamp unto my feet and a light to my path. Knowing this, as long as we seek the wisdom of God, he will never see us perish due to our own lack of knowledge. NOR will he have us ignorant to the devil's devices.

Dear Lady LaShonda,
Wowie I sure have loved what you had to say about the office of the Apostle. Never have I heard so much subtle hostility from members in the church against the office of the Apostle, and the office of the prophet isn't that far behind when it comes to the distaste the church has for these two foundational ministries. Sometimes I feel a bit lonely at times but God gets me through it. I love what you said about Enoch.
