Unfortunately, this step of theirs disqualifies them for future pay and promotions, until they return to serving Him.

Do you have to be a prophet, apostle, teacher, pastor or evangelist before you can serve God? No!

He enjoyed total health (Deuteronomy 34:7) and died a great man never to be forgotten on earth.

Furthermore, Jesus served the Father absolutely and God powerfully promoted Him, such that at His name every knee bows down and every tongue confesses that Jesus is Lord.
