Was Paul the last God called Preacher?

[lentz]

Timothy says,”If a man DESIRES the Office.
Paul tells Timothy and Titus,to place Elders and Deacons in the churches.
Paul received his calling directly from Jesus,while Paul says do it by the laying on of men’s hands.

Also if God does the calling,there would be no need in listing requirements in Timothy.
God would only call those that met his requirements to begin with.

God calls people today for all offices in His Body, and He confirms them.

[Curtis]

Eph 4:10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
Eph 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
Eph 4:12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Eph 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

These gifts will continue until, "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man," This has not yet happened.

We have a world filled with wanna be teachers.. n preachers.. so very few do the true job of a shepherd so few dont feed themselves off a flock of people that they dont even know by name..

He said who is my Mother my brother my sister?? Those who do the will of my Father.. He said call no one teacher there's only One.. when He gave His Life on the Cross He said it is finished.. we r told the Spirit will be poured with out measure upon His children.. Many can tell if the day will be rainy or sunny few can tell what season we r in..

In a world where so many wanna be a leader they forgot His are servants of one can't love and serve what they see how can the Love n serve what they don't . J S
