Session 1- John Alley
“Kingdom Culture” is a phrase that is often used but not defined. Claimed that apostles will bring “Kingdom Culture”.
Something is missing in much teaching about the apostolic. People want to be “as one” but not be one.
Kingdom Culture
Nation of priests
Priesthood – represents God to men, men to God, offers sacrifices.
Ex 19:6 you shall be to me a kingdom of priests.
Rev 1:6. He has made us a people and priests
1 Peter 2:9
The believers were one in heart and mind Acts 4:32.
We must love one another as God has commanded
The more excellent way is the way of love and is the heart of the apostolic message, and of Kingdom Culture
When you get apostolic grace you move into higher levels of love.
The purpose of the moves of Holy Spirit is to bring maturity of love.
Apostles are here to move church from institutional to relational basis. This is the central purpose of apostolic movement.
Restoration of apostles is about the restoration of the apostolic nature of the church. It’s not about what we do but about how we relate. Submission is central.
You cannot come to maturity in Christ without a revelation of love. Without love, spirit of sonship and community we cannot get close to fullness of Christ. The role of apostles is to help church find this perfect love.
