In 1 Corinthians 12:28, Paul says, Now God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers. We are looking at the gift of teaching. As Paul was writing to the Ephesians concerning the ministry gifts within the church, again he said, "He gave some apostles; and som... Read More

Matthew chapter 12 MATTHEW 12:1-13 At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
