The Canmore Accord
-
- I think all of them are lacking in our church. Apostolic- bring governance , and lots getting competitions. How many churches have no Pastors . We needs prophetic ministry to churches to bring guidance, declaring prophecy to the church. Evangelist, we need Christian's who have courage to share the love of Jesus. Teaches to teach believers and deepened thier faith.
The Canmore accord is a great teaching. I've learned the five fold ministry but this explain more deeper.

In my personal experience the ministry gifts that I have seen lacking in the church today are: the Apostle, Prophet and Evangelist. Its not difficult to find people that call themselves by the titles but the actual fulfillment of the function of the gifts have been few and far between. A lot of the lack, I believe is attributed to the lack of teaching and discipleship in these gifts. I say all of this only being baptized in the Holy Spirit less than a decade ago, and up until then, being mostly involved in religion. Though, even in my short time of exposure to the full gospel, i would say that these three gifts seem to be less emphasized, accepted and cultivated in church bodies.
Again, ill say that i Had not received any scriptural teaching about these gifts up until 8 or 9 years ago. Mostly personal inclining’s. I am so happy to have scripture and people who believe it in its fullness to run with.

I think the Prophetic is missing the most, many people have been hurt by it and I’ve noticed churches have shut that side of things down due to this. But I’m seeing this change in recent years thankfully

Prophecy is lacking in the church today. There has been quite a bit of fear for those who have the gift to exercise it. In the past this gift has not necessarily been welcomed. The Canmore Accord is changing things by bringing acceptance to all the gifts. If there is accountability to the leadership of the church, prophecy can be a great blessing to the church.
