Ephesians 4:11It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, 12to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

ThoughtsPastor talked about praying for aposolic faith. seems that apostle is the first on the list here, above prophets , evangelists pastors and teachers in the hierachy.

the gifts of the holy spirit is to prepare god's people for works of service

they are to build up god's peop;le until we are united in the faith and knowledge of the son of god

the ultimate goal of using the gifts is to achieve the fullness of christ in us
