Definition of the Word Saint: Of the many words used in the Bible to identify Gods chosen people, the term Saint is used most frequently 96 times and carries some of the greatest revelations of Gods purpose for His people both in this age and in the ages to come.

It is translated sanctuary three times. A true Saint is one who has become holy through the righ- teousness of Christ. Like the tabernacle of Moses and all its furnishings, Saints are separated from the worlds use and set apart strictly for Gods use and glory. They are sanctified and anointed ones who have become set apart from the ways of the world to live Christs life and demonstrate Gods Kingdom. During the Dark Ages approximately A. It became a term for those to whom the Catholic church granted sainthoodcustomarily someone who had already died.

This is the reason the old King James Version of the Bible refers to each of the Gospels by the name of the person who wrote it, such as Saint Matthew, Saint Mark, etc.

Both the Roman Catholic and Eastern Or- thodox churches also established patron saints. However, the Bible presents Saints as simply being those whose sins have been washed away by the blood of Jesus, who have been born of the Holy Spirit, and who have been translated out of the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of Gods dear Son, which makes them chil- dren of God.

In this presentation we will primarily use the name found most often in Scripture, the Saints. He declared that there is only one Body of Christ on Earth, yet it has many members with various and diverse functions. In First Corinthians 12 he explained that each person who re- ceives Christ as personal Savior is born of God and bap- tized into the Body of Christ as a particular member. Just as the physical body of Jesus was the habitation of God the Father while He was on Earth, so now the Body of Christ, the Church, has be- come the dwelling place and headquarters of Christ upon Earth.

Jesus said that He was sending the Holy Spirit to convict of sin, convert people to Christ, sanctify the believers, em- power the Saints, speak the truths concerning Christ, and reveal the future purposes of God. Fivefold Ministers: After Jesus ascended back to Heaven, He took His ministry of building the Church and divided it into five categories that He gave as gifts to certain mem- bers of His Church.

Jesus gave specific names to these gift- ed ministries. And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers.

Throughout this book you will see them referred to as the fivefold. Each of the fivefold ministers has received one-fifth of the whole ministry of Christ Jesus.

Though the fivefold ministries are equal proportionally, they are not the same in their divine abilities, functions, and ministries. The pas- sage in Ephesians 4 quoted earlier goes on to say that they are all given for the equipping of the Saints. There is no particular Scripture that states what specific things evan- gelists, pastors, or teachers do.

However, there are several Scriptures that state what apostles and prophets do. Ephe- sians explains that they have the foundation-laying ministry in the Church. The Church is not a physical building; it is a building made of living blood-washed people. The apostles and prophets are foundational mem- bers upon which the rest of the members of the Church are built. They provide a structure for the equipping of the Saints.

I strongly teach the gov- ernmental structure of the local church and the apostolic structure of the corporate Church, and I have spent much of my ministry helping to raise up and train those God has called as prophets and apostles.

However, I believe that we who are in leadership need to take a new look at where God puts His priorities. The Day of the Saints will not do away with the government and leadership structure of the Church, but it will cause a paradigm shift in the way. Church leaders view the Saints. Instead of being preoccu- pied with our leadership titles, positions, and authority, we will become more Saints-oriented. Fivefold ministers were given for the Saints, not the Saints for the fivefold ministers.

Too many pastors feel that God gave them the Saints in their congregation to make them successful and to pay tithes so the pastors can be support- ed in the ministry, build greater buildings, be on televi- sion, and take missions trips.

There is nothing wrong with all of these activities taking place, but the perception and motive of such a minister is contrary to Gods purpose for giving apostles and pastors to His Church. For the Saints to be activated and effective, many ordained ministers will have to make some radical and revolutionary attitude adjustments.

The Saints themselves must also receive rev- elation concerning their calling, privileges, and responsi- bilities to Christ and His leadership team. Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus. It would not be proper protocol today for me or any other minister to send a letter to a local church and not address it to the local pastor.

It would be seen as ministerially unethical to seemingly bypass the. Nevertheless, ten of the New Testament Epistles are so addressed. It is amazing that not one book is addressed to an individual with a fivefold min- istry title. A Pentecostal minister preached a message seeking to lessen the validity of present-day prophets and apostles in the Church.

He suggested that there were no continu- ing prophets and apostles of the Church. One of his main points was the fact that none of the Books of the New Tes- tament were addressed to an apostle or prophet.

He ne- glected to mention that neither are any addressed to an evangelist, teacher, or pastor. Based on his logic and rea- soning, we would have to question the validity of the min- istry of pastors in the present-day Church, since no Books of the Bible were addressed to a pastor.

Even the Epistle to Ephesus is addressed to the Saints. This is the book in which the apostle Paul did the most teaching on the ministry of apostles and prophets and brought forth the revelation of the fivefold ministries that Christ gave, calling them apostles, prophets, evange- lists, pastors, and teachers. Relationship Is More Important Than Position: When Paul addressed his letters to individuals such as Timothy, Titus, and Philemon, he did so based more on their rela- tionship to him than on their position in the Church.

He wrote, To Timothy, a [true and] beloved son [in the faith]. As Christ aligns His Church, we will have to embrace truths that will seem revolutionary. For example, during the Protestant Movement Martin Luther taught the revelation truth of the priesthood of the believer. However, prior to the Protestant Movement, launched in , the only two rep- resentatives of Christendom were the Eastern Orthodox churches and the Roman Catholic church. Members in those churches were not allowed to have a Bible to read.

The priests, including all clergy in the Catholic church from the pope to the father of each local parish, were the only ones qualified to read the Bible and interpret its meaning. Church members could not go directly to God but had to come before the throne of God through their priest. Sins were confessed to the priest and not directly to God. Church members were completely dependent upon the priest for their relationship with God. Mother Mary and the priests were the mediators between the people and Jesus Christ.

Average church members did not even. The best they could hope for was to shorten their purifying time in the fires of purgatory by doing penance, paying for indul- gences, and performing other good works. The Priesthood of All Believers: The Protestant reformers taught that every Christian believer was a priest unto God and could approach the throne of God by the blood of Jesus and the grace of God, without the clergy of the church.

Any person could confess sins to God and be for- given without confessing to the priest or having the bless- ing of the pope or the intercession of Mary, the Mother of God. In other words, in a personal relationship with God, every believer had the same rights and priestly privi- leges as the ordained priest of the church.

You can see why the hierarchy of the Catholic church branded them as heretics and excommunicated them from the denomina- tion. Catholic leaders declared that the Protestant teach- ings were anti-church and caused rebellion against the doctrine and delegated authority of the pope, Gods vicar, and the priests and fathers who were his appointed reli- gious leaders and mediators for the church members.

This is anoth- er way of saying that every believer is a priest unto God. In the first-century Church, the word minister did not refer to a title of a clergy position but to a service rendered by the believer.

Every Saint has the calling, privilege, and power to minister the Holy Spirit, the Word of God, and the graces of God to others. Every local church should be a. We are going to see a mighty spiritual army of professionals, laborers, students, home- makers, and retirees demonstrating Christ Jesus ministry and overcoming power over all the forces of darkness.

In Chapter 8 the topic of Saints in the marketplace and pub- lic square government will be covered in more depth. All Ministers Require the Same Things: One can better understand and accept this truth by asking the following questions. What does a Saint called to minister in the pul- pit need that is different from what a Saint called to min- ister in the marketplace or public square needs? Do the Christian businessperson, government official, and ordained clergy all need their sins washed away by the blood of Jesus?

Do they all need to know Jesus as their per- sonal Savior? Should they all be filled with the Holy Spirit and have a workable knowledge of the Word of God? Should they all have Christlike character, practice biblical principles, and be sold out to Christ for His own glory and purpose?

The answer is YES! The calling and special di- vine enablement to fulfill ones calling is different for each Saint, but the needed biblical attributes are the same. However, the calling to be presi- dent requires more preparation in specific skills and abil- ity than the calling to be a citizen who does common labor.

Each member of the human body being formed in the womb has a DNA that directs its formation to enable it to fulfill its membership calling. Every member of the. God does everything in divine order. A proper foundation has to be laid before a building can be built.

God is restoring the foundational ministries of the prophet and apostle before He fully builds the building of matured and activated Saints. Those who have Christs vision, heart, and ministry to the Saints will be the generals and other officers leading Gods great army of Saints.

The first decade of the twenty-first century will see the Holy Ghost bringing revelation and proper alignment of the fivefold ministers according to Christs original pat- tern so that Christ may fulfill His purpose in and through. His Church. I believe Gods major purpose for the recog- nition, activation, and unity of the fivefold ministers is for them to fulfill their divine commission of equipping the Saints. Then the Saints may fulfill their membership min- istries and be prepared to participate in the Day of the Saints.

Please keep in mind that Church structure and di- vine order are as eternal as Christ and His Church. The Day of the Saints will not lessen the leadership authority and importance of the local church, but will bring divine application that will make it more effective because it will be functioning according to Gods full divine pattern.

Much more is involved than just saving them from hell and making them candi- dates for Heaven. Escaping Gods punishment of the wicked in the eternal lake of fire, by accepting Christs blood for the cleansing of sin and by receiving eternal life with Jesus Christ, is the foundational benefit of being a Saint of God.

We who are Saints should never forget what Jesus saved us from and should always keep an attitude of indebtedness and thankfulness. My purpose is to help all Saints who read this book find their personal ministry and destiny, as well as to prepare them to participate in our corporate destiny. When persecution hit Jerusalem the believers suddenly had to flee, leaving behind the apostles who had led them. Acts chapter 8, verses 1 and 4 tell what occurred: At that time a great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they [the Saints] were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

Therefore those who were scattered [the Saints] went everywhere preaching the word. Did the Saints shrivel up in their faith because no pastor was there to hold their hands? Everywhere the believers scattered they rose up and demonstrated the message of the gospel of the Kingdom of God through miracles, signs, and wonders. He who believes. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.

More Christians but Not Full Believers: Nearly 2, years later the gospel of salvation through Jesus Christ has gone to every political nation, and efforts are underway to reach almost every ethnic group. Hundreds of millions of people consider themselves Christians. One-third of the worlds population identify with some branch of Chris- tianity, whether they ever attend church or read the Bible.

There are two primary types of meetings for the Saints in churches today. Some are based on tradition and ritual where the believers function as an audience. Mem- bers of the congregation are expected to participate where the ritual requires it and otherwise to listen to the minister as if they were attending a lecture.

Other meet- ings are led by ministers who flow in various degrees of evangelism, prophecy, healing, and miracles, often with great fervor, excitement, and faith. When Christians in. Before Jesus return, His Church will operate in all the fullness that the Scriptures declare.

Jesus Christ declared to His followers, He who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.

That time is very near. But Jesus said that these signs will follow those who believenot just those who have a well-known ministry, are on television, or stand behind a pulpit.

Chapter 7 of the Book of Daniel gives a key Scripture for the coming Day of the Saints: But the saints of the Most High shall receive the king- dom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever. Until the Ancient of Days came, and a judg- ment was made in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom.

Then the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey Him. These attributes and manifestations will be expounded upon in Chapter The Church coming into the twenty-first century parallels Joshua and the children of Israel getting ready to begin their conquest of the promised Canaan land. Joshua told the people to sanctify themselves and follow the ark of the covenant, That you may know the way by which you must go, for you have not passed this way before.

Following is what a few of them are saying. He continues:. My hypothesis is that the bride of Christ, the Church, has been maturing through a discernible process during the past few centuries in preparation for completing the task of the Great Commission. My starting point is the Protestant Reformation in which the theological underpinnings were firmly es- tablished: the authority of Scripture, justification by faith and the priesthood of all believers.

The Wes- leyan movement then introduced the demand for personal and corporate holiness. The Pentecostal movement later profiled the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit in a variety of power ministries. The office of intercessor was re- stored in the s and the office of prophet was re- stored in the s. The final piece came into place in the s with the recognition of the gift and of- fice of apostle.

This is not to say that the Church is perfect. It is to say that the infrastructure of the Church, so to speak, may now be complete.

The Church is much more prepared to advance the Kingdom with a speed and intensity that has not been possible in previous generations. He concludes: The Lord has had a few Joshuas and Calebs who have been outstanding in their time, full of faith in doing great exploits. But now, at the end of the age, He is raising up a generation with the faith to cross over and possess their inheritance.

Together they will ignite a multitude of Nashville, Welsh, and Azusa Street Revivals, multitudes of Great Awakenings, and many Reformationsall to- gether. A generation is arising that will see all of the things that every prophet and righteous man from the beginning longed to see.

For those who love God, there has never been a greater day to be alive. The Lord has saved His best wine for last. Rich Marshall, author of God Work, writes: A new day is dawning in which the Lord is re- leasing into the marketplace an army of soldiers who will be used as frontline ministers for the work of the Lord.

They are going to usher in a move of God un- like any we have seen. We are about to see a sov- ereign move of God, not a revival in the traditional sense. It will not be something that takes place in a church or something that can be characterized by a series of meetings.

An evangelist or a pastor will not spark this move of God, at least in the traditional understanding. I dont know how history will record it, and I am not even sure what to call it today.

But I know this: God is actively working in the marketplace. We are returning to the Biblical standard where we can expect to see God at work through the lives of business and professional people, CEOs and man- agers, policemen and nurses, athletes and salespeople. In subsequent chapters of this book, we will see that the Church has been in the process of restoration for nearly years in preparation for all these things to be fulfilled in the near future.

We have not passed this way ever before. The mystery of Christ, which was not made known to men in other generations They have the anointing of the sons of Is- sachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do. A few have the special anointing to receive Christs blueprint for the Church and to have an overall view and an architectural model of the finished building of the Church.

When Jesus made the all-important declaration, I will build My Church,51 He had the blue- print and finished model of the Church in mind. That portion of the mind of Christ has been given to certain apostles and prophets in the Church.

This does not make them lesser or greater than other fivefold ministers; it only gives them a greater responsibility to make these things known to Christs Church. Making Restoration Truth Known: Christian International has been teaching and training people in the truths of the Prophetic and Apostolic Movements, which are thorough- ly covered in some of my other books.

These last two movements are bringing the revelation and restoration of prophets and apostles to the Church so that all fivefold ministries will be actively training the Saints for their work of ministry. All that has been restored to the Body of Christ thus far has been to enable each generation to ful- fill its destiny and also to make the necessary preparation for activating the next major restoration movement on Gods schedule.

Now, in this first decade of the twenty-first century Church, it is Gods predestined time for the Saints to fully come into their membership ministries. When the fivefold ministers have completed their divine commis- sion of equipping and perfecting the Saints in Christlike character and ministry, then the full manifestation of the Saints can take place. In keeping with other restoration terminology, I have called this Holy Spirit-inspired time of activating Gods people the Saints Movement.

It is des- tined to be a major restoration movement, not just a time of revival or refreshing. It will have the seven major at- tributes that have been a part of every major restoration movement.

The Saints. Movement will be the sixth. We will cover these matters in more detail in coming chapters. Why Use the Phrase the Day of the Saints? For practical purposes, the term the Saints Movement is interchange- able with the Day of the Saints, and we will use both throughout this text. However, I have titled this book The Day of the Saints to emphasize some important points. But before Christ returns in glory, He will be glorified in and through His Saints as they demonstrate their likeness to Him and their obedi- ence to His commands.

The term Day in this case is not limited to one liter- al hour day. Like the day of salvation, it implies a fullness of time or an opportune time.

Although it will be a genuine restoration move- ment, this is more than an event that will take place among a few theologians or trendsetters in Christianity. God is giving all His people an opportunity to fulfill all things prophesied about His Church in order to hasten the return of our Lord.

Some of you reading this book will have the opportunity to make a paradigm shifta complete change in your way of looking at the Church and the roles of believers. Change can be very uncomfort- able. However, you have a choice: You can stay in your comfort zones, or you can become more like Jesus. You may feel that all your friends and relatives are like the 11 disciples sitting in the boat during the storm, but Jesus may be telling you, Come.

Our soul intellect, emotional makeup, and personalityis deter- mined some at birth. However, the way we think and function is mainly determined by our environment, educa- tion, experience, and all the things that have influenced us. The sum total of who we are at the present as physi- cal and soulish persons is determined by all the things just mentioned. Who we are in our spirit is determined by our relationship with God, who is a Spirit. In reality, a person cannot think or act any differently from what his total being has become over the years, just as a computer cannot perform and respond any differently from what has been programmed into it.

Having Gods grace and this understanding enables me to have patience with people who do not believe the way I do about Gods purpose for His Church. Revelation Can Make a Difference: The only exception to seeing things differently from the conditioning of past ex- periences and environment is receiving divine enlighten- ment. The Holy Spirit can suddenly illuminate our minds to see things never understood before, enabling us to re- spond differently.

Mentors are photographs of our futures. The teach- ing we receive and the anointing we respect become the beliefs we establish and the type of ministry we exhibit. The fivefold minister who attracts and enthuses us the most becomes the model for our lives.

Normally we will become a reproduction of that person. We can neither choose our biological parents nor decide what set of par- ents will raise us to adults. Sinners normally do not choose which minister will bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

However, Christians can choose which church and minister they want to mentor them, especially if the church where they were birthed is not growing them beyond their babyhood Christianity. As a general rule, a minister will not advance beyond the restoration truth, doctrines, bylaws, and tenets of faith of his denomination.

And a congregation will not advance be- yond its pastors degree of restoration truth and Christian maturity. Instead, they are a divine legitimate birth right irrevocably bequeathed upon every believer in Christ. In this book, Apostle Frequency Revelator dissects on both the revelational and practical aspects of operating the gifts of the Holy Spirit, categorically synthesising them into revelational gifts, vocal gifts and power gifts.

It will also assist you in terms of knowing the limits and boundaries of the operation of His gifts in your life. Ultimately, it will catapult your faith to the highest realms of the supernatural whereby you shall operate in all the gifts of the sprit for the empowerment, edification and advancement of the Church.
