    I agree, but let's try church discipline first. ;)

    we have the Foundation for theology laid into the church already via OT prophets and NT Apostles, as Jude Himself stated to us that we now have in the Bible the faith once and for all delivered to us, Paul stated what all scriptures are inspired to do for us, so again, why any Apostles needed for today?

    They would have been watching over local churches, making sure right doctrines and practices were in use, and would have appointed pastors and elders in local regions...

    The most important thing here is that to be qualified as an Apostle, had to either walked with Jesus on earth, or saw Him resurrected, hence Paul last real Apostle, and John last living one!

    You, not Scripture, which names many other Apostles, decide who are real Apostles and who are not?

    You are illogical. You are going to build a case that every divine revelation given to man by God was recorded in The Bible?

    You are simply ignorant of Scripture.
    Scripture says "Apostle", they were an Apostle.

    I am stating that God closed off divine revelations outside of the 66 Books, and that in there are the ONLY ones that we know for certain have come to us from God!

    The 12 were chosen and commissioned by Jesus, as was Paul!
