What we are

What we are and what we think we are is sometimes different and surprising. Of course everyone wants to have specific gifts or callings but every part of the body is just as important as another. Now some parts can perform several functions for example, the mouth can nourish and also speak. In the same way some teachers can also heal. Why is that? It has to do with confirmation. Many claim to be this and that but without signs and wonders to confirm what they say they are we can dismiss their claim. That does not mean that the teacher is actually a healer, his primary ministry is to teach and the healing is a following sign. Now all teachers are prophets unless they are teaching the traditions of men in which case they are false teachers and accordingly false prophets. But if a teachers hears from God then much authority has been given him and the sign is no wonder. The eye is also a witness and some of us are only witnesses but that is no mean ministry for it glorifies God to witness these things.
