3. TCL/DFW LEADER ONLINE FELLOWSHIP /DR TAVEAU D’ARCY LEADERSHIP MINISTRIES MAIN APOSTOLIC TEACHING POINTS:
TCL POINT: the use of the words “Apostle VS apostle”
- TCL refers to the first original Jesus Christ hand picked, appointed Chief Apostles and Apostle Paul as “Capital A” Apostles, Chief Apostles, but all following them are denoted as servant pioneering leader apostles, using a lower case “a” as Apostle Paul used when describing himself, listing the 5 fold offices, and for bishop, in all of his apostolic New Testament writings. (The only exception was if the word APOSTLE began a sentence, thus a capital letter would be required and appropriate).
- TCL POINT: Doing the “work of an apostle” VS “walking in the office of an apostle” Doing the work of an ‘apostle:” any true Christ follower may feel God directing them to plant a business or ministry, other work, but this does not mean that they “walk in the office” as that is a life long endurance, repeated leader sifting God called true servant office.
- TCL POINT: Describe the nature of an office of the apostle?: An office of an apostle implies a God called/commissioned Holy Spirit true servant, pioneering spiritual work founder, trailblazer, colony chief planter who is Commanded by God to a yielded true servant, a servant office, which the Bible describes as a pioneering “sent messenger” “off scouring of the world” who has signs and wonders displaying (many of them need many miracles to win the sin sodden but also to survive great peril.
- TCL POINT: Describe the relationship of a true apostle with the Lord: A true chief apostle maintains an ongoing First Love Lampstand Lifestyle set apart unto hearing, obeying the Lord. He/she must remain extremely close to know precisely what the Lord is saying to do or to not do. And during this set apart, deeply committed important prayer time, the Holy Spirit imparts to them, directs them and gives them Holy Spirit (first hand: organic) without mixture divine revelation.
- TCL POINT: A true chief apostle, who is also a true Christian disciple, is more concerned with helping to advance, to build, the Kingdom of God, rather then his/her own senior ministry. True chief senior apostles are Holy Spirit directed “apostolic team players” who will work together in Ephesian 4 manner, across racial, cultural and denominational dividing lines for the sake of God’s Kingdom Unity True Organic Community.
- TCL POINT: As the sincere, “chief apostolic spiritual doctrine” builds God’s kingdom, makes new pioneering leaders, and new disciples. ); there are also miracles, prophetic signs and real wonders, even new forms of worship music /Bible teaching training emphasis, all of which reveal another glimpse, wise deep insight, into Maker God’s amazing enormous Nature,even akin to His Personality. Pioneering servant, pure hearted albeit, chief apostles will be truly humble and understand that God is their only true source of help, comfort, strength, life satisfaction and ultimately all provision.
- And as each one remains close to Father and purposely maintains a pure hearted, non self seeking, ongoing First Love relationship apart with the Lord, God will imbue them with Holy Spirit supernatural wisdom, refreshing revelation and supplied might and power.
- Thus the chief apostle will be given God’s great grace to bless many others by birthing brand new 5 fold office works, fresh fire for the weary, many other subsequent apostolic ministry true fruits:, new worship, Christian pioneering media, nonlegalistic new churches and in prophetic kingdom business,etc
- TCL POINT: In House Ministry: Even if its’ a close relative, , a spouse or a fellow co-laborer of a true chief apostle will not know the depth of or the kind of revelation that the Lord has privately whispered into the spiritual /prophetic listening ear of the organic, chief apostle, However, each of the second tier 3rd tier mature leaders, including the spouse, MAY be a main “Chief Apostolic Ministry Pioneering Team.”
- TCL POINT: This is why mixture may be added, by media,hearsay, presumption, assumption and leader winds of doctrine, in all second,third and so forth, ongoing subsequent Bible training school, Bible college, pastors fellowship ongoing generations.
- TCL POINT: We encourages all pastors, 5 fold ministers, and lay to be like pioneering Apostle Paul who praised the “Noble Bereans” for checking out even HIS OWN apostolic leader doctrines. IFFM submits that each reader may do so with ANY of our IFFM leader /in House doctrines (but in humble, James 3;17/Ephesians 5:21 respectful, mature fashion. And we do the same with all other leader/peer doctrines)
- TCL POINT: OUR definition of an “apostle” – a sent messenger but one MAY or MAY NOT BE NOT (not yet) been “molded, fashioned over due time” into the Chief Apostle Overseer true OFFICE.
- apostle in the Bible: signs and wonders, off scouring of the world, sent messenger
- SECOND PART
TCL APOSTLE, CHIEF APOSTLE, IN HOUSE DEFINITIONSWELL KNOWN AND FAMOUS CHIEF APOSTLES, OBSCURE CHIEF APOSTLES IFFM POINT: Today, there may be chief apostles who are well known, world wide, famous but also chief apostles who are not widely well known but all are equal and valuable in the sight of Lord. Where there is a national senior pioneering call, most of the times, it births a new denomination, worship movement, Bible teaching and subsequent Bible colleges, seminaries, leader training books, CDs, and mass media. It may also produce new art, original music.’
- TCL POINT: But God is never One who compares any of His children, ministry leaders /chief apostles or not. That is only found in the human mortal soul. Thus whether God downloads mighty deposits of fresh wisdom, many new ideas and Bible teaching, worship arts: He does not compare what He gives to well known Bible teacher, pastor, TV minister to what He also gives to an never going to be well known, humble sent person in a foreign land or deep in a poverty stricken, but affirming, hovel.
- The Lord gives granted grace to all, but He never regards ONE as More Valuable who is well known and “big” verus one in a small regional landlocked area, who will probably be there all of their life. The reason “God has no respecter of persons.” Only we humans can feel it too often from our popular culture numbers oriented vain, hurried culture.
- TCL POINT: God first gives his servants the prophets and the apostles FIRST HAND “ORGANIC” revealed wisdom, new understanding, called “revelation. “
- This gives ideas and energy to the chief called ‘sent messenger” and creates big leader vision, which gives their life purpose ,deeper depth, and for most, fulfillment, to pioneer /found Holy Spirit true movements, also some known as denominations. Also churches, seminaries, TV station, local churches, other works.
- TCL POINT: Famous or hidden, both kinds of caring chief apostles are equal, valuable,but not all are famous nor should they need to be to justify them as valid, extremely important to the LORD and His mysterious over all Kingdom Plan. God Holy Spirit wants every level of being to have a ‘sent messenger” on Kingdom assignment,to make sure ALL of the gaps are filled at every single level of human existence, to be able to send God’s love to every human individual.
PART 3 IFFM POINT: THE OFFICE OF AN APOSTLE
- THE BIG QUESTION:IS A PERSON DOING THE “WORK OF AN APOSTLE” OR DO THEY “WALK IN THE OFFICE OF THE APOSTLE?”
- TCL POINT: God calls/commissions true born again, submitted Christ following servant. He commissions them Heart to Hearing Heart :to go out, to minister. But first He specifically imparts to each one of them, then reveals (shows ) to them every inch of the way on what to do, how to do it, where to do it and whom to first pick to co-labor with. God also shows the founding chief apostle (be they regarded as great or very small) whom God is sending them directly to: to save, heal, train, build and plant “Spiritual Colony.”
- TCL POINT: While it is an honor to be picked by the Lord for such a high spiritual calling, yet the Apostle Paul, a mature, humble, chief apostle’s apostle himself, dedicated his life to fully knowing the LORD rather than about “achieving, building his apostolic ministry work.
- TCL POINT: the Bible describes as a pioneering “sent messenger” “off scouring of the world” who has signs and wonders displaying (many of them need many miracles to win the sin sodden…. but also to personally and directly survive great peril.)
- TLC POINT: There is no One Size Fits All in pioneering apostolic ministry. The Father uses a great number of “subtypes, even prototypes and kinds”
- TCL POINT: Noone other than GOD ALONE truly calls the senior chief ministry office of an apostle.The Lord calls, hand picks, the person to which He chooses, based on His great grace, to then reveal bits of Bible wisdom, insight, understanding which is fresh to complement,potentially ad to, but never ever to compete with, prior, previous Bible generations of key organic Holy Spirit revelation.
- The office of a chief apostle is called, not achieved from Bible teaching, going to Bible college or performing a formula.
- TCL POINT: Doing the work of an ‘apostle:” any true Christ follower may feel God directing them to plant a business or ministry, other work but this does not mean that they “walk in the office” as that is a life long endurance, repeated leader sifting God called true servant office.
- TCL POINT: a pioneering founder, chief apostle, of a movement, TV station, etc, national/worldwide, Holy Spirit movement, national revival, worship move, will be used by the Lord is just as valid as the one who begins a system of education for poor, builds a network to care for the dying or homeless or has a ministry behind the scenes.
- TCL POINT: The key in being a servant pioneer ANY TYPE OF PERSON is to keep a “single mind’s eye” ONLY and CONTINUALLY, ALWAYS upon the Lord. Other than that, it might tempt you to get into “accuser” trouble.
- TCL POINT: the office of the chief apostle is SUPER SLOW, FINE TUNING and SIFTING, WINNOWING….. but that’s ALL for this time,
- More to come..
AND Dr. Taveau D’Arcy will proceed to do the very same thing with YOUR Doctrine and every body ELSE’S, in James 3:17 embodied due respectful form.
