The Iowa Conference hosted the first planning session of The Daniel Project, designed to organize a group of spiritually motivated young people to reach their generation with the grace and truth of Jesus Christ.The key verses are:
” … but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits [take action]. And those of the people who understand shall instruct many … And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them wait, until the time of the end …” Dan 11:32b–33, Dan 11:35
In the above passage, we see five great undertakings of faithful believers in the end times. To be accurate, this passage is speaking specifically of Jewish believers during the Tribulation Period. However, we have every reason to adapt it to these closing moments of the Church Age.

Ephesians #24
In Eph 4:11-16, Paul emphasizes spiritual growth and that we benefit from others' gifts in that way. 70 A.D. Jerusalem was destroyed including the Temple. 96 A.D the scripture was complete. Prior to that Prophets and Apostles had direct revelation from God; Pastor-Teacher and Evangelist have replaced them with the purpose of equipping the saints for the work of serving (1Pe 4:10-11).
Scripture References: Ephesians 4:11-16
From Series: "Ephesians"
More than any book Ephesians reveals the blessings from God based on our relationship with Jesus Christ by grace through faith. Eph 1:3 is the a key verse. Other key verses by chapter include Eph 2:8 Eph 3:19 Eph 4:1 Eph 5:18 and Eph 6:10-11.
