The office of apostle involves more than witnessing the resurrection

Were Women Apostles in the New Testament? Women in Ministry part 5 00:48:29 – 00:49:29

Mike distinguishes the office of apostle from mere witness.

The office of apostle (as when Paul claims he can come to Corinth and use his apostolic authority to put things in order) involves more than merely witnessing Jesus — it includes a specific commission and foundational leadership role. 'Apostle to the apostles' uses the word in two different senses: messenger (for Mary) vs. authoritative leader (for the Twelve).
