What Is The Apostolic
Apostolic is a word that is commonly used to describe the culture of GMS.
In attempting to capture the culture of GMS one must therefore understand the definition of the term ‘apostolic’ and the office of an Apostle. Historically the word, ‘apostolic’ is employed to distinguish the authentic or true church from the apostate or false church. This word apostolic is derived from the NT Greek works – apostello and apostolos. It literally means, “to send off, or send forth”.
It denotes a specific sending (on a specific mission) by the “sender” (GOD) that imposes a very clear mandate on the “sent one” (the church). Included in the “sending”, is the idea of an intimate relationship between the ‘sender’ and the ‘sent one’ and that the ‘sent one’ adopts a voluntary and subservient attitude towards the ‘sender’. The implication of the ‘sent’ principle is that the ‘sent one’ fully represents the heart, intent and authority of the ‘sender’ as if the ’sender’ were present himself.
Reformation is another term used to describe the present season of God in which we live. From a literal standpoint, it means to make straight either by a right arrangement and right ordering or by making an amendment and bringing right again.
Apostolic Reformation therefore conveys the ideal of setting in order again that which was made imperfect or marred by sin in the Church and in creation. Apostolic Reformation presents to the Church a ‘new and better way of drawing nearer to God’ (Hebrews 10:20)
We are looking forward to worship and the Word with you and your friends and family!
