Welcome to the third stage of the process that will lead you to take your first steps as a leader in the church. This is not the end of the apostolic training; it is merely a milestone on the journey of your new life in Christ. That life began when you were born of water and the Spirit and had your first personal encounter with Jesus; then it developed into a solid relationship; now you have a commitment to Him. As the second coming of Christ draws near, the enemy in his desperation has sent unprecedented demonic forces to the earth, and you must learn to deal with them. You will learn to use spiritual weapons such as fasting and prayer. You will understand that the purpose of prayer is to know God, and that fasting is the legal means to obtain greater power in the spirit. You will be prepared to defend life. You will receive revelation on topics such as: abortion, which is an attack against human life; the family, which remains the fundamental cell of society; marriage, which can only be between a man and a woman, because that is how it was instituted by God. Third stage of the leader formation process — designed to prepare the believer who has completed the Growing In and Growing Up stages and is now ready to take on a leadership role in the local church.
