The primary goal of the 5 fold is to equip the saints. John the Baptist baptized for repentance while Jesus baptized for ressurrection. When you were baptized, you entered with a cross but exited with a crown.
The old covenant revealed we need a savior. The prophet's job was to let you know that sin deserved judgment, and justice came through judgment. However, the job description for a prophet changed from the old covenant to the new covenant. In old covenant we judge people while in the new covenant we judge prophesy. In the new covenant, it is a ministry of reconciliation.

The five fold ministry was given to the church to equip the church. To each person grace is given which is the operational power of God. Grace gives you the ability to do what you couldn't do what you couldn't do a moment ago.
The gift of a five fold is not to do something, but to be something. The gift gives you the ability, and the calling gives you your identity.
