Apostle of Jesus Christ
Apostle Yenan's Ministry
An Apostle?
An apostle is one that has been sent to share the message, but not any
message.
Let’s explore what Paul says in some of his epistles.
Gal 1:1Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus
Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—2and all
the brothers with me.
Gal 1:11 I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached is
not something that man made up.
The apostle Paul began identifying from where his preaching comes from,
not made up by man. However it was...
Eph 2:20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with
Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.
Apostle Paul’s preaching was based on a revelation of God’s mysteries.
These are some examples of the mysteries revealed to Paul.
Now to him who is able to establish you by my gospel and the
proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the
mystery hidden for long ages past, but now revealed and made
known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal
God, so that all nations might believe and obey him—Romans 16:24-
26
that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. And he
made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good
pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the
times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven
and on earth together under one head, even Christ. Eph. 1:8-10
This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together
with Israel, members of one body, and sharers together in the promise
in Christ Jesus. I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God's
grace given me through the working of his power. Ephesians 3:6-7
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be
changed— in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.
For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and
we will be changed. 1 Cor. 15:51-52
The Apostle Paul specified that his revelation was given to him directly by
Jesus Christ.
Gal. 1:12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I
received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 3:2Surely you have heard about the administration of
God's grace that was given to me for you, 3that is, the mystery made
known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly. 4In
reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the
mystery of Christ, 5which was not made known to men in other
generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God's holy
apostles and prophets.
God’s revelation is a gift of His grace and when it is delivered by God is
called: “administration of God’s grace.” God reveals to His new covenant
apostles mysteries based on the foundation of Jesus Christ, the apostles of
the Lamb and the prophets of the law, who were the ones that prophesied
about the coming of God’s grace.
Ephesians 3:8Although I am less than the least of all God's people,
this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable
riches of Christ, 9and to make plain to everyone the administration of
this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who
created all things. 10His intent was that now, through the church, the
manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and
authorities in the heavenly realms.
God uses His apostles to reveal to the church the mysteries that are still
covered or forgotten. That the church may continue growing... “being rooted
and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to
grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19and to
know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the
measure of all the fullness of God (Eph 3:17-19).”
The Process of electing an Apostle
Gal 1:15 But when God, who set me apart from birth and called me by
his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach
him among the Gentiles (Please read Galatians Ch. 1)
An apostle is one that has received a direct revelation from Jesus Christ and
has been sent by Jesus Christ and God the Father to the chosen ones of
God. This means that an apostle is chosen by God from the beginning of
time, set apart from birth, and called to receive the revelation of God’s Son.
Jesus Christ then gives a revelation of His mysteries for the apostles to
preach to the nations.
The calling has 3 basic aspects:
1. The chosen must have a real and personal encounter with the
resurrected Christ. It is visual and audible, can be through a real presence
in the natural realm or can be through a vision or a dream.
2. The chosen have heard the voice of Christ Jesus and His calling
personally.
3. The chosen have been taught be Christ with a revelation of His
mysteries.
Because of been chosen as an apostle of Jesus Christ the miraculous will
manifest as power through the Holy Spirit which is according to God’s
wisdom and grace.
After God called me, the grace that was given to me by God is the revelation
of a profound mystery that God separated me to preach to the church.
Eph 5:31"For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and
be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." 32This is a
profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.
