The priesthood of all believers begin in the church in the home, where believers pray, prophecy, minister, sing, share with one another. Apostles, prophets and teachers are to equip, teach and train the believers to flow in the one another ministry, not to lead the one another ministry, instead they too are to flow with the believers in the one another, and pastors, etc are to flow in the fellowship of the one another ministry, not control it, instead protect the unity of the one another ministry, and apostles are to protect the fellowship of church in the home. –(1 Cor. 14:26)

Every believer has gifts, but then there are the some in the church, which are apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists, and pastors. Apostles, prophets, teachers are the center leaders of the congregation, pastors ministry is in the church in the home, they are called to pastoral care and pastoral love, they flow along with the priesthood in the home. Evangelists minister in between six home churches, to add to them with souls, and belong to one of them. They led souls to Christ, then they discipleship them. –(Eph. 4:11)

The elders of the congregation are apostles, prophets, and teachers; plural elder in a council of elders led by a senior apostle, who is the set visionary of the congregation. The senior elder flows with the unity of oneness of oversight council. They work together, but the senior elder has the last word in the council meetings, he try’s to work together and maintain openings among the elders with one another. –(Acts 3:1-3)

A new apostolic congregation is a network of churches in the home with a center for equipping the saints for the work of the ministry. The center is the ministry of the apostle, prophet, and teacher. The Church in the home is the ministry of the pastor and the Evangelists minister between six home churches adding to the church. –(1 Cor. 12:28)

Believers are to be equipped to do the work of the ministry; the some set ones, which is the five-fold ministry, are only to do 2% percent of the ministry, the believers are to do 98% percent of the ministry. Saints are to be equipped into the work of the ministry. –(Eph. 4:12)

The New Apostolic City Church is arising; it is a network of new apostolic congregations at the city level, with city church apostles leading the city church with vision. There is only one church in each city, that church is the city church, each believer and each minister is to have their eyes open to the vision of the Body of Christ and unity of the Body. Each city church from city to city is to connect, with the Body of Christ around the world. –(Eph. 4:11-16, Eph. 2:19-22)
