Apostolic Reference Council

The Council will provide an avenue for the deeper workings of networking. In all relationships living principles must be walked out. We must move in apostolic functionality and interpret ministry outworking with the pattern set forth in Acts 15. The Apostolic Reference Council will help to create a greater condition of transparency in which selfish motives cannot prosper. It also insures that proper motives of New Testament conduct find all the dimensions of Acts 15 support. (Ezra 5:2, Gal 2:2, Gal 2:11)
