Gifts From Our Ascended Savior

Paul tells us that “When [Jesus] ascended on high, He … gave gifts to men.” That sounds exciting. And so, like a small child our imagination begins to race and we ask, “What did you get me, what did you get me?” And then He tells us here in His Word. He "gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers.” Our Savior’s preaching and teaching didn’t end on the day He was taken up into heaven. It has been expanded in a way that is nothing short of amazing.
