Apostolic and prophetic gifts were foundational and temporary, ceasing with the completion of divine revelation and the passing of the apostles.
Paul’s model of the church emphasizes spiritual equality, doctrinal unity, moral accountability, and submission to Christ—not institutional hierarchy.
Paul teaches that the church grows as every holy one is equipped by the Word to serve, speak truth in love, and function under Christ’s authority.

Paul teaches that sanctified thinking requires sober, Spirit-led judgment about one's gifts and place in the body—grounded in Scripture, not self-evaluation.
