The Bible makes it perfectly clear that there is not gift of Biblical Apostles of Jesus Christ TODAY:

Revelation 2:2 I know they works, and they toil and patience, and that thou canst not bear evil men, and didst try them that call themselves apostles, and they are not, and didst find them false.

The PRESENT gifts TODAY are primarily Pastor/Teacher and Evangelist (of which I am called as an Evangelist).

Further evident in the books of Acts demonstrates beyond all facts that a true Apostle MUST have been PRESENT at the resurrection of the Lord Jesus:

Acts 4:33 And with great power gave the apostles their witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all

Acts 5:2 and kept back [part] of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.

Acts 5:12 And by the hands of the apostles were mahy signs and wonders wrought among the people; and they were all with one accord in Soloman's porch.

And further evidence is in the book of Galatians only Christianity is the true Gospel from the Apostle Paul; and any other gospel is a false gospel, which Paul warns correctly us to take heed and avoid:

Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

Gal 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

Gal 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

Gal 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Sorry. We’ll just have to disagree on the correct translation of these things.
