Many people think that the Office of Prophet and Apostle has died off at the close of the canon of Scripture. They have heard and believe that the Spiritual gifts are no longer needed because the we have the complete Bible. Well, I'm here to tell you that is not true. If we look very carefully at Ephesians 4:11-13, we see that Jesus "gave" some to be apostles, some prophets, etc, here the word "edoken" in the Greek, meaning "to give" or simply "gives". Many scholars think that this word is in the past tense, but actually if it were, then we would have a "tense conflict" with one word in "past tense" and the rest of the passage in the present / future tense. Here is the passage so you can see what I mean:

Ephesians 4:11-13 (NKJV)
