99 per cent of Apostolic Churches are set up with One Pastor and then under them perhaps an Elder or two.
Not one scripture has been presented to support this set up. It is said that Elderships do not work. What is the criteria for it to work? I say it should produce the result intended by Christ.
That result is that Saints grow up into him in all things which is the head even Christ. It is that we all come to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
It is that every man be presented perfect in Christ. This is the purpose of the ministry. And on this basis I say the system used at present is a dismal failure.
Most Churches proclaim to their people they cannot even BE perfect. This is their fruit.
