What is an apostle and how do Christ's gifts work together?

The Bargain of all time: become Christ's slave.

Though Jesus has made our identity amazingly positive as His child, co-worker, bride, ambassador, etc.; but we come to Jesus first as a slave to a Master.

How else can you come to the Almighty but first as a slave because He is the Transcendent, Sovereign, King of the Universe?

Be a slave who loves His Master for all His amazing goodness, generosity and kindness!

He does expect us to give up our entire life to follow Him. 

Everyone is a slave to someone or Someone or something.

Unity of Vision as explained in Psalm 133.  

Restore to me the joy of Your Salvation.  (Ps 51:12a)

We are "co-laborers with Christ" "to seek and to save that which is lost."

Jesus seeks to save lost people the "cool kids" rejected.

Though we seek to save the lost, we have to disagree with their worldview.

Luke 15, the Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, the Lost Son.

All humanity was lost and Jesus searches for each soul.

Luke 19:10  for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Jesus came to accomplish the first item on His to-do list: Save the lost.
