The following Scripture has been taken and could be taught wrongly.







What could the Holy Spirit be saying with these verses.



.



Ephesians 4:7-12

Wherefore, he saith, 'Having gone up on high he led captive captivity, and gave gifts to men,' --



Aand that, he went up, what is it except that he also went down first to the lower parts of the earth?

He who went down is the same also who went up far above all the heavens, that He may fill all things --

And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as proclaimers of good news, and some as shepherds and teachers, unto the perfecting of the saints, for a work of ministration, for a building up of the body of the Christ,



Interesting when you see this in the Greek language.

Hahaha, there is the proverbial trump card!....Lol. Your translation of the Greek is correct ( I checked ) however you interpretation of the text requires some assumptions beyond what is acceptable for definitive truth, it is more in the realm of pure speculation.
