Apostles Are Rising- But By What Authority?
from By What Authority · host Raymond Ybarra
In a generation where the title “apostle” is becoming increasingly common, the church faces a crucial question: By what authority? This episode walks listeners back into the New Testament to examine who Scripture actually calls apostles, what their role was in the establishment of the church, and how believers today should respond to modern apostolic claims — whether genuine or not. With biblical texts like Ephesians 2:20, 2 Corinthians 11:13, Revelation 2:2, and 1 John 4:1, this teaching equips the body of Christ to test every claim by Scripture, discern true spiritual authority, and anchor themselves in Christ, the cornerstone and head of the church. This is not an attack on titles; it is a call to biblical clarity, spiritual maturity, and Christ‑centered discernment.LISTENER TAKEAWAYListeners will walk away with a clear, Scripture‑based framework for evaluating any claim to apostolic authority. They will understand the New Testament role of apostles, recognize the difference between biblical marks and modern trends, and learn how to test doctrine, character, fruit, mission, and sending — without fear, suspicion, or confusion. Most importantly, they will be anchored in the truth that Christ is the cornerstone, Scripture is the standard, and every spiritual claim must be measured by the Word of God.
