The Five Ministries; The world has entered the last days as prophesied by Christ in Matthew, chapter 24 and Saint Luke, chapter 21. We as citizens of Christ's Kingdom in the earth are engaged in a mortal combat with the forces of evil. "We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12). God's plan in the earth is more than a thought, an idea or figment of our imagination. It is a reality working out the conclusion of all things in the earth. The world in which we live is rapidly changing. New ideas are replacing the old. New standards are preached as the old ones are rejected and looked upon with criticism and dislike. Can the foundation of the Church be destroyed? Are Denominations on their way out? What are the Church's greatest dangers? Will the present Church in this age fulfill its mission? These questions and more are quite obviously answered by those who understand and see the Church in the same perspective that the bible teaches.
