Simon Peter, a bond servant!
I can't help but think, that those who are in the N.A.R ( new apostolic Reformation) are putting tickets on themselves. That means they are lifting themselves up higher than is needed....They say there is an apostolic mantle that has fallen on them, (nowhere do we read about such a mantle in Scripture) and this is what they are now...apostles....and none of them want to be known as "bondservants" They have given themselves this title to let you know they are a little better in knowledge and closer to, whet they think, is the truth....and their teaching is totally wrong.
The word apostle actually just means messenger, and we are, or should be, all of us, that kind of an apostle.
But there were just 12 Apostles, chosen by Jesus Himself. We read in acts, that Judas was replaced, to make up the 12th.....
As pastor Jack Hibbs puts it so nicely, and I quote:
"We tend to put our best foot forward when meeting someone new, so what would possess a person to say, "Hi, I'm a servant" as Peter did? He could have simply written Apostle, a title that carried obvious clout, and he would have been truthful. But his main identity had become bondservant and that powerful identification spoke volumes to those reading his letter."
Peter himself starts off his letter in 2 Peter 1 verse 1 :"Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ."

I have been reading the book of Acts yet again, and nowhere can I see, anyone else being called Apostles.....there were quite a few in the upper room, who were there when the Holy Spirit came, but they are not referred to as Apostles....no one else is either...it's only those who actually were with Jesus...
