and for ever" Jude 24, 25.

Christ which strengtheneth me"

some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the

of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the
stature of the fullness of Christ" Ephesians 4: 11-13.
