 Just wait for it. Wonderful, that's all said. So if someone could lead and pray, we will continue. So Ruba, are you? Good morning. Good morning, ma'am. Good morning. Good morning, sister. Good morning, friend. Shall I pray, ma'am? Yes, yes, sister, please. Okay. Father God, we come to your throne of grace with thanksgiving and praise. Thank you for your mercies are new every morning in our lives, Lord. Great is thy faithfulness in our lives. Father, thank you, master, for always being with us, guiding us, teaching us, comforting us, encouraging us, correcting us, to unlearn and learn the right things. In the name of Jesus, we thank and praise you for our class, for our faculty, Pastor Nancy, for teaching us this prophetic and clearing us so many doubts and granting us a new understanding on this subject. Father God, empower us, Lord, help us to be your faithful ministers and servants and children, followers wherever we are, Lord God. May your name be glorified through our lives. May our lives, PSE, live for the pleasing sacrifice unto you, Lord. Thank you for this morning. Open our hearts to receive your word, Lord God. Strengthen us in your might in Jesus' name. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Amen. Amen. Thank you, sister. Thank you so much. So we are doing a couple of chapters that are remaining in the understanding the apostolic and so far we have a good idea of what the apostolic anointing looks like and what that can accomplish and who an apostle is and what the kind of apostolic leadership looks like. So the last class we touched on a church becoming more apostolic as compared to only having a pastoral leadership and we said that the Church of Antioch is a wonderful example where we see a teamwork taking place and also as we look at the early church we see that people where father, they were not just instructed but also mentored and led to become leaders. When I say become, it also has to do with the grace that God has given them, the calling that each one of them have. So basically facilitate whatever call of grace that God has put upon them. So there is an element of fathering which is definitely there when someone pastors a church but when we talk about the apostolic, it's at the next level and fathering makes a very, it plays a crucial part in the way a church is led. So we looked at that, we saw how a church can become more apostolic and the focus will also be outward rather than just inward. I told us that member care, taking care of members, he is all that is important but when we talk about the apostolic, together with that comes a pioneering spirit, a spirit that wants to break through into new territories. So there's an outward focus in the way things are done in a church setting or a church family. Yes, so that's something we saw and then we saw how the citywide church at the city level to have apostolic leaders and have them united and work for the cause of the salvation of the city and breakthroughs in the city, transformation of the city, all that will take place when these leaders come together. Then today we will look at what I'll do is I'll just summarize. There are a few themes that are running through the next three chapters. So I'll summarize instead of going chapter 8, chapter 9, chapter 10, instead of looking at it like that. Sorry class, for my frequent sneezing and things like that, I don't know, it's just been way too dusty around where I live. So mornings I'm just kind of trying to settle into it. So anyway, so thank you for bearing with all this. So what I was saying is there are some themes that run through the next few chapters. So I'll just touch on those themes then that should give us good clarity about the apostolic. So the next three topics here have to do with developing and imparting the apostolic. Then there is raising of apostolic churches and finally about the practical issues concerning the apostolic ministry. So coming to the new thoughts here, developing imparting the apostolic that basically talks about us understanding what the apostolic anointing carries and how it looks different from a pastoral leadership. Because if we don't recognize that when God is moving among us, when God is raising up apostolic leaders, we will not have an open heart to say yes to what God is doing. So we need an understanding, a clear understanding of apostolic ministry, apostolic calling, apostolic anointing. So develop that understanding and also develop the understanding about the governmental authority that this call as an apostle carries. Because the way a leader will lead, especially an apostle will lead, will be so, so different from the way a pastor will lead a church. So if I don't understand, then I might think that someone is just trying to do their own thing and never recognize that there is going to be a large impact of the apostolic way of leading God's people. So yes, just basically have this develop this understanding, accommodate what God is doing through the apostolic anointing. Now, what we have next over here is raising of apostolic churches. So in raising apostolic churches, there are some distinctive features which I talked about. Apostolic churches are pioneering in nature, pioneering has to do with breaking new ground or taking new territory, entering places that nobody else has entered before. So that's pioneering, pioneering. So apostolic churches have that feature about them. They do something new, they enter a new place, then building. So just entering a new place is not sufficient, but establishing a foundation and building upon it. So the apostolic, as I told us, you have Paul who goes and plans churches, but he also comes back to ensure that the believers are growing well, to see that the leaders are appointed in the church. So the overall health of the church, growth of the church, and also at some point to see these believers go forward. Please give me a moment. Yes. So those are the differentiating features. Now, we could also say that when we look at the apostolic church, there can be a process which they follow to establish the work of God. So even in one of the previous chapters, I didn't look, I didn't talk about it earlier, but in chapter five year, those stages are enlisted. We have the territorial entrance, we have pioneering stage, building stage, governing voice, and apostolic base. So there are five stages. So there is also a process. What is this process? The process is, as territorial entrance suggests, recognizing where God is leading us and making an entry into it. And I will not go into the details of this because we have discussed this earlier in the House of God course, where we said that when someone is planting a church, to make that entrance will require spiritual preparation on the part of the individuals, the team, as well as the place. So there's some amount of spiritual warfare that one needs to engage in in order to breakthrough into that territory. So we might find that there are apostolic teams and leaders that are taking extended periods of time in prayer. I recently attended a church planting conference and in that conference, different pastors were sharing their experience. And I still remember something that was common in what they were saying is that amount of time each one took to pray through, even after God showed them the place, there was one particular church who said that for an entire year, for an entire year, they only had prayer, they had worship. And every Sunday, there was nothing, nothing else which they did as a team. It was a small team, but they prayed and prayed and prayed because there is also the spiritual aspect of warfare and preparing ourselves, preparing the environment through prayer. So territorial entrance happens in this manner. And I remember the pastor saying that he is so enthusiastic about writing sermons and he already had a whole bunch of sermons which he could carry on with that for a couple of years, but then he had to hold on and take up God's instruction and say, okay, we will invest in prayer, we will invest in worship, we will prepare ourselves, we will prepare the territory. And then he began and then he was sharing all the miracles that took place, how God connected this person to someone totally unknown, but they had a beautiful space where the church could take place, services could be conducted and in that way. So he kind of began to share all those stories and this particular church is part of a movement. Remember, I'm talking about the apostolic way of doing things and generally apostolic has a movement. So this was one church, a part of a network that has many, many, many churches that follow a similar way of doing things. So it was an apostolic network actually. So territorial entrance, that's how it all begins, you enter first and then you establish yourself there. So territorial entrance, pioneering stages, you kind of prep based on the opportunity or the environment that you see. So prepare yourself in that manner and then you begin to build on it. So when it comes to the building stage, there are many things that have to be put in place. So what we need is when we're talking about apostols, apostolic networks, we will need to know who is leading and who is God working through. So the apostols within the local church, they are identified and they begin to fath the entire process. Then establishing of strong leadership and governmental responsibility within the local church. So strong leadership, obviously remember we said a team will come into the picture where many different people are doing things based on the calling of God on their lives and governmental responsibility. Governmental responsibility is to display strong authority, strong authority so that things are done according to the standards of God's word. Then establish strong doctrine within the local church. I think I've talked about this. The apostolic has this feature. They're very clear about the core beliefs and never compromise on that. Remember the Jerusalem council where they literally fought with those who are coming up with a different doctrine about salvation. So the apostolic will establish strong doctrine. Then establish order within the local church. Order within the local church is, if you recall, we talked about the sacraments. We talked about the pulpit, how things are done from the pulpit, the format of the church, many other processes that take place in the church. The leadership appointed correctly in a timely way. The right person in the right place at the right time. All this is a responsibility of the apostolic leaders. So they establish all this and develop new wineskin. New wineskin is nothing but being open to a new structure and a new way of doing things that God is leading them to. So even now when you look at apostolic networks, there are a couple of networks. I think I mentioned some common ones that you would find on the net. You could look up Calvary Chapel. You could look up New Frontiers Association. You could also look up recently. There's also an evangelical group that redeemer city to city. So these are all church planting movements that have emerged. You kind of see a new way of doing things and you wonder, hey, so far people were not doing things like this, but here are all these movements that are doing things in a different way. The leaders look different. The church formats look very different. But that's the new wineskin as the Lord begins to move them. They do things in a different way to accommodate what God is pouring upon them. So these are some of the features during the building stage. Then of course, there's a governing voice. Governing voice simply means gaining the kind of respect and honor and being heard by the people whom they are leading as well as you could say the spiritual family in the city, also the officials, the governmental structure in the city. So basically God establishes the apostolic with a voice. Voice is like to be heard when you say something. Like you have the Jerusalem Council, they made a decree and they said, okay, Gentiles do not have to be circumcised in order to be saved. Now that is it, period. And people had to take it up seriously. That's a governing voice that tells people what to do. And the apostolic carries that. It becomes a governing voice of spiritual authority over the region and people take note of what is being spoken and said. So in other words, it is incredible influence that God gives the apostolic church and the apostolic network of churches. So God would do this. And this can translate into city transformation. It can translate into social reforms. It can translate into influencing authorities, local authorities, civic authorities, civic bodies around us, having a voice when it comes to policy making, so all these things. That's how the apostolic will influence. Then finally, stage five is apostolic base. Again, Antioch is a beautiful example because the church grew. And after the church grew, what happened is all these people who had been fathered, the people who had been equipped and trained, they were released to go and take up their own ministry. And you still had the leaders come back to this, if you want to call it the original church, the Antioch church and bring back a rapport, fellowship, excuse me, with the believers there and work together, continue to work together. So apostolic base is a technical way of putting it. But if you, there are some people who use the term family, this is our church family that we come from. So we could be, like I'm just giving an example. I am from APC Bangalore, but I could go to other parts of the nation and do what God is calling me to do. I could equip people and come back or I can go plant churches and come back. I can go to other parts of the world and come back. But my base church, my apostolic base is APC Bangalore. So that is the way in which this works. So generally when you look at the church movements, you would find that there was one particular church from where the leaders emerged and they began to go all over the place and plant churches. But then eventually, they do come back, they have their gatherings. Even if they've changed geographically, there is a base that they all refer back to. So this happens in the apostolic way of doing things. So there are some stages. As I pointed out, you have the territorial stage, you have the pioneering stage, which is starting on the initial work. Then we said building, very important. So the apostolic work is set in order. The doctrine is set very clearly for people to follow. So that would be our building stage. And once the building stage is done, governing voice or having an authority and being heard is the governing voice stage. And then finally, apostolic base, where the work continues, nothing has changed. All of what we talked about so far is established. It's in order and the work continues. But there is a body that people can come back to, a place of reference and just reconnect, refresh, recharge up again and go back and continue God's work that he has called them to do. So this is how an apostolic way of doing things in a local church will look like. So it's very different. You see, it's very different. So a normal local church is only used to coming, listening to some sermons, being equipped. They do engage, go share with other people, fulfill God's great commission. But then when one is part of an apostolic church, you will notice that there is a very notable outward focus. So in some way, everyone's required to contribute. Everyone's required to step up. Everyone's required to do something for God because all of us are the saints who have been called to work in the kingdom or serve in the kingdom. So an apostolic church will be like that. So for some people, it can be very intense. For some people, it can be way too active. People who are part of apostolic movements and churches might think, hey, I don't have a calm moment to just sit in peace because there's something or the other going on. Everyone's engaging in reaching out to the nations and reaching out here and there and all of this. So the challenges with the apostolic way of doing things can be that it can be very intense, very intense. It can be very intense in spiritual things. There's a lot of emphasis on the right doctrine and everyone has to grow spiritually and all that because if you're going to do something for God, no, we have to be growing, we're constantly growing. So it's all too intense. So some people may find it intense. Some people may find that the leadership is way too strong and way too focused and it's like too much for them to take. The focus is advancing the kingdom. So again, one can't just come and just be there and not do anything for years. Initially, maybe that's possible, but eventually everybody needs to engage in such an active way of doing things. So what can be some challenges? People might feel uncared for. They might feel that it's always about doing something or it's always about some agenda. So as a person, as a human being, they feel that the kind of attention they need and the kind of time they need is not being given in the apostolic setup. So that can happen. We know that some of us are wired naturally to be doers. So we know how to run, get things done and be ambitious about God's kingdom and advance the kingdom. So some of us are naturally like that. So it's a lot easier for us to tap into movements of this sort. But then some of us, just personality wise, we may not be that geared to moving at the space. So for people like that, it can be quite uncomfortable. They might feel left behind. They might feel like everyone else is going ahead and I'm so slow. Or it could just be a season of somebody's life where they are unable to cope up with the speed at which things are going on in the church, the apostolic church or in the apostolic movement. So now that we understand that these things can happen, these challenges cannot come as apostolic movements and churches, we can more intentionally care for people so that people don't feel that that is not important. So in fact, apostolic churches should take this all the more seriously and make sure that the people feel very loved and noted and that they belong to what is happening and everything that God is doing through the church or the movement. It's because of all these people being part of that movement. So apostolic churches need to consider this challenge and compensate for it. So that's the way we will improve. Now another thing, people feeling left behind. So remember when we talked about mentoring in the Kingdom of God, we said that mentoring, a huge part of mentoring is to facilitate. So we are here for people to journey through life, recognize their calling and do what God has called them to do, not to dictate terms to people. So even if people are slower or people are taking time to understand the grace of God over their life, the gift of God, where do they fit in? They're just going through a tough season in their lives. Maybe there's somebody sick in the family and it's just taking a toll on the entire family. Maybe they just got married or they just had a baby. So many things take place and that can slow down their speed of doing ministry. Maybe they were doing, they were really fast but in this season of life, they want to focus on other things. It's all fine. So we must learn to accommodate, we must learn to accommodate people, accommodate their unique journey with God and apostolic churches must be all the more intentional about doing this. So praise God for all the good things that come with the apostolic but when apostolic churches are intentional about all these aspects, it can be a blessing. So coming here to the last aspect in our notes, it simply says that because apostolic churches are so intense and generally they are focused on one man, generally they are focused on one man, what can happen is that people can become very you know, give all their attention to that, the leadership of that person can become very human centric at the end of the day and that's a danger. That's a danger that we must perceive from before and not let that happen and apostolic leaders tend also to be very strong. So we need leaders, apostolic leaders who are also working with humility. So while training leaders to kind of also emphasize on character on all these right attitudes becomes all the more important otherwise there are you know movements, apostolic movements that you can read about that have gone wrong because of such strong leadership that went wrong. So these are all the pitfalls and dangers. So Ashik Kumar, do you have a question? Would you like to unmute and ask your question please? Yes, Pastor, thank you. Pastor, my question is like in the early churches when we read the epistels, they were all under the covering of Apostle Paul or Apostle Fanon. Yes, yes, carry on. Yeah, so I just want to know that today it's very rare we see that any church is under any covering of an apostolic covering. So I just want to know that is it necessary that every church should be under the covering of an apostolic or an apostolic covering should be there apostolic guidance is needed for every churches because if you see the majority of the churches they are individually running how the God is leading them. So that is my question. Thank you, Pastor. Yes, yes, thank you Ashik Kumar and a very pertinent question because recently a lot of people are asking about this apostolic covering. So apostolic covering simply means having a strong apostolic leadership so which means you know you probably have an Apostle and being led by that Apostle spiritually getting our guidance, inputs and support from that leader or leadership. So what has happened over the years is there are again a lot of church movements where some of the church movements are such that they have church planters from within the movement. So you have people whom they have trained up to go and plant churches. So they automatically come under that apostolic covering. Covering is nothing but providing of direct leadership over the people but then there are some movements where people have started out independent. So they are an independent church they have their independent vision but they want to associate or get connected to a governance or a leadership, apostolic leadership. So that is called as apostolic covering coming under an apostolic covering. So from what we see in scripture Ashik Kumar I don't think it is a prerequisite for a church to exist. A church can be independent. A church can pursue the vision that God has given that particular church and if they don't come under apostolic leadership of some sort it is perfectly fine. So people don't have to look for now let's say I started a church okay now I'm working I'm doing stuff independently I need not come under an apostolic covering I need not. But if it happens or if God is moving upon my heart to come under some sort of an apostolic covering that's fine. Now if I if as a church I don't come under apostolic covering do I miss out on anything is there something wrong with the way I'm doing my ministry I don't think so because you don't see any prerequisite that everyone has to officially come under an apostolic covering there is no such prerequisite. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah I mean is there a follow-up to that? Yes, that was my doubt actually. Thank you. Okay sure sure sure yes yes thank you Shikaman. All right Kennedy you have something to ask? Yes okay thank you thank you very much. What I wanted to inquire is that there are cases where you've seen pastors having ministries that have gone online and they also run CBOs this community based organization. Would you consider the plan to be apostolic? Okay yeah good question. Yeah thank you. So you see that's why no Kennedy I said we have to we have to look at the biblical features of the Apostolic Anointing and that will help us decide whether a ministry is apostolic whether a person is an apostle or a leader is an apostle. So just look look for the features. What are the features? Features are being able to pioneer something. Pioneer a move of God or you know pioneer something something new in the way God is doing things. So is that that can you can you vouch for that? Are they are they pioneering new things for God? Then we would also see they're providing strong leadership. Are they providing strong leadership as far as the doctrine is concerned? Do you see that they are fathers they are effectively efficiently able to raise up other leaders and not just raise up mentor them lead them guide them such that you have many leaders under this apostle who are carrying out the work of God in their full potential full capacity. So do you see that happening? Do you what else? Do you see that this person and the movement which they started or you want to if you don't want to use the term movement that's okay the church which they started it has received a lot of honor respect socially. Do you see that they they spiritually have a voice among the citywide church where other pastors and leaders are able to connect through relationship with this particular apostle or the church and it's a mutually beneficial relationship. It is strengthening the body of Christ and this leader this church has a voice. So what they say they're able to influence the citywide church and also they're able to influence the civic authorities. They have a voice at the highest level you could say the state level here in India that's how we have the cities we have the states then we have the nation. So is it rising up in a way to have that authority at the highest level. So observe all these things just because a ministry has multiple multiple locations multiple activities multiple churches right multiple so just having many things going on it's not apostolic. So if I if I am online and I also have CBOs that's wonderful but that's not necessarily apostolic okay so that is how you distinguish that is how you distinguish so just being able to do a lot of things or let's say even me if I have planted five churches in my lifetime I'm not an apostle I'm I need not be an apostle maybe I planted 10 churches in my lifetime I need not be an apostle. I hope it answers your question Kennedy. Yeah I understand now thank you thank you. Yeah okay thank you very good questions there any more any more today is your last class by the way so if you have any questions it'll be amazing to get more clarity on on this subject. Sorry sorry for coming back to you again. No no go ahead. Can you talk about the financial stewardship in these apostolic things how they are modeled about how to handle their finances. Okay yes Kennedy very good question again because it's very practical no so if we are talking about church movements and all that so if you look at the models that exist around us each one has their own best they have their own best practices okay so that way I think each movement can decide for itself or themselves they can decide as to what works for their setting. So I know of some organizations that that that have churches but initially for the churches to connect to those movements they have to pay a fee to become a part of that apostolic movement so I don't know maybe that demonstrates their commitment or what I don't know but that's how they've made it so they collect a fee and then you know they as they work along with this organization so they might give the name then give their name let's say I am a church of hope it's just an example I hope there is no church of hope movement that you are aware of so church of hope so let's Kennedy wants to join me Kennedy has to give me a fee and I give him my name so then Kennedy's church will be a church of hope from wherever he comes from then as I'm working with with Kennedy you know these networks also have a way of supporting so then they will evaluate they will see how the work is going on and they might recognize that Kennedy needs financial support so they will enlist some pastors who will receive a support for a period of time maybe up to two years so each each network has their own cut off two years or something like that then they will give you a support they will come up with that support and they'll give that to you then after that they would expect you to be self-sufficient by yourself so by then hopefully you have a reasonably good size of congregation and there is some income which you are able to generate through the tithes and offerings and the way you've managed your resources so you know after two years they might just cut off so you still carry the name hope of God church but it's not any financial you know interactions but it's more of you you go by our teachings and we are here to guide you lead you support you maybe you're going through opposition persecution we are there to support you and usually apostolic networks also tend to be more like a family so they have their conferences once a year they have their regional get-togethers so there's a sense of hey I belong to this group I belong to this network of churches so that's how they work so the financials work that way but then there are other networks where from the get-go they they will work out a support and say okay come on we are going to pay you X amount of money just to support you to to stand on your feet then again they can either have a cut off or they it could be indefinite they'll say okay this is the amount and we continue to give it to you throughout you decide you know what what amount would be your salary from it or you know what amount would be directed towards the ministry everything you decide but this is the amount we're giving you you should be able to run your ministry with this so that's how you know some of these churches do it so this is a way of you know financially helping churches under you now there can be some networks but but I have not come across you know this example where everything is done centrally centrally means all the money that comes in it goes into the head office of the apostolic network and the expenses for the connected churches comes through the head office but you see it's it's a law it practically that is challenging to do isn't it like every approval every small amount of money so I I I have not seen any large networks which have this model where centrally the amount comes in and from there all the decisions are made and it is sent out to the people usually when there are church plans and the church plans are in other parts of the country a more independent way of working helps where a support amount is given and the local pastor there will you know he will he will run with that amount and maybe a report back on on the way he is using those those finances so yeah some details therefore you can indeed I hope it helps you yeah thank you very much thank you very much yeah sure sure there are also some networks where there is a seed amount they call it seed amount seed amount is to launch so you know a church might want to have a big inauguration or you know like a launch a launch party some such as college so the network will help facilitate that they they will give the money required to make that nice launch so that others come to know you the other pastors in the city come to know you so you know all these ways and I'm sure there are many models Kennedy many models when it comes to helping and supporting the network of churches yes so any any other questions thoughts comments I hope I I'll see you in the next year everyone next semester yeah yeah go ahead Christopher you have something to say yeah I can hear you can you give us some examples of churches or church in that has traditions in in Bangalore as well as you know in India uh not necessarily you know had that as a source of in Bangalore or to riches in Bangalore and what is what would be unique uh in you know in the way they are demonstrating that for apostolic covering hmm okay okay sure Christopher okay in Bangalore is it in Bangalore okay uh I for one believe that APC is apostolic they and its nature so that is one example for you um I have heard about the new frontier churches so they have you know they have churches not just um uh in in different cities so in Bangalore also I I think so uh oh maybe not in Bangalore but uh yeah so new frontier is is another one it's a UK based organization but they have churches all over the world um then vineyard vineyard is another movement which you know started started out in the US vineyard churches you would have heard about that I think yeah there are churches in Bangalore which are vineyard they are connected to the vineyard movement then most recently I think even uh churches like new life and all you can say they are apostolic to next night I don't know too much about the new life church but I know there are lots of churches around the country which are called new life so yeah I think so uh you could also look at networks like Assemblies of God uh Assemblies of God uh has many churches but it differs in in a in a sense no from what we were talking about because we said there's you know a central leadership sort of you know an apostolic uh voice but when it comes to the Assemblies of God I think they're all independent they work as a network uh but if you consider individual churches their visions are very different the way they do things is very different uh so uh churches are very different so I don't know if um Assemblies it's a network yes but does it come uh under what we are saying as an apostolic church I don't I don't need to know a little more about Assemblies of God so that is another one recently I heard about uh some church called Cross Road Cross Road yeah Cross Road Cross Point uh they also they also are into church planting they're into church planting so they have uh one location in one part of the city they have another location somewhere else so Cross Road is also something that I came across um yeah because I think these these are the ones that I can share right now of my mind yeah you had another question attached to that uh what was something unique about that you know that that meet them what is unique about them yeah so the uniqueness about them is as I told us um okay let me take for example uh vineyard okay uh the unique thing about them was see it was started by this person called John Wimber and John Wimber was uh saved from an atheistic sort of a lifestyle he joined the church but he discovered the gifts of the spirit yeah so he discovered the gifts of the spirit and he was very very thrilled by it and he felt accord to have churches that will practice the gifts of the spirit so remember we said uh you know apostolic leaders uh and strong strong doctrine they build they uh put things in order and in place so the way his teaching was so all of the vineyard churches that got planted after that uh were all churches that believed in the baptism of the holy spirit they were they believed in the working of miracles they believed in the practice of the gifts of the spirit by every individual in the church so the doctrine generally uh Christopher tends to be common uh among all the churches so that would be the connecting factor of the of these churches so if you consider other churches in let's say a new life or a cross road different different one to go back to that core uh beliefs that would be something unique or or their emphasis I should say their emphasis on the doctrine will be something unique um then the appointing of leadership each of these churches the way they appoint leadership will be completely different uh so some of them they uh will will see you know leaders grow up uh among them and then they will decide okay you are you are good to uh plant churches now be part of an internship so the way they appoint leaders will be something different network you can observe that um uh yeah so I think these would be the the two key things Christopher the way of doing things and the doctrine yeah sure thank you and I just realized we've run out of time so uh class what I would say is the stream page on google classroom is still there so if you have questions you can continue to ask till the end of the semester but for now we'll just wrap up the the session and thank you so much for being such a curious and an inquisitive class you know I really love that about your class it makes me learn more so thank you for that opportunity and I really hope that you know whatever you all have learned that uh you you will be able to use it and see god work amazing things through your life so may god bless you abundantly let me pray and close uh today's session let's pray together heavenly father we are so grateful lord for this entire semester and the course on uh the prophetic and the apostolate father god thank you for all that you are doing thank you for all that you are teaching us lord father I pray that you will help us lord to be
