Why Is God Calling You?
Being Chosen By God For What?

Romans 8:28

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.

Now, before you allow the enemy of our souls (Satan) to talk you into believing that you could in no way ever be special or worthy enough to fill the bill and the thought of little ole you being called by God seems just a little far fetched, please ponder on this Truth ... That is exactly the sort who God has called to serve Him. Being chosen by God means you are deemed as being of less worldly value than others. Let's confirm that, shall we?

1 Corinthians 1:26-28

²⁶ For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
²⁷ But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
²⁸ And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

Many Called Few Chosen Bible Study Tidbit of Truth ... God has chosen to use the outcasts of the world if you will, to serve Him. Those who feel that they are worthless. Those who are found to be unworthy by the world and even oft times, by themselves. You may be a loner or perhaps known by others and even yourself as being a bit odd, weird, strange peculiar or unique ... That too, is exactly who God has called.

It is written ... God has called peculiar souls to serve Him.

1 Peter 2:9

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an Holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvellous light;

Awesome huh? So, being chosen by God means you are supposed to be ... Strange, as far as the world sees you. (Unless you hide it well) God chooses those who He knows could never think more highly of themselves than they ought to and would seek only to love and serve Him. He does not want a someone who will turn on Him or trade Him up down the road (Some of us know very well how that feels) and/or desire to take the credit from Him in some vain attempt at taking His glory.

So, if you have any doubt that God would call you, because you do not feel like some kind of superhero like many chosen people in the Bible ... Best think again.

Now, that you have a hint of belief that God is calling you ... Let us evaluate the words that this Many Called Few Chosen program is based upon ... What does "Many Called Few Chosen" mean? It means that God calls many souls to serve Him, but He chooses few of them.

Many Called Few Chosen Bible Study Trivia question ... Why?

One very sad reason is because few choose to answer when God is calling. It is kind of obvious, is it not? If you needed something from someone, so you kept calling them hoping they would answer, but they would never respond or even call back. It is quite obvious by their failure to answer your call that they do not want to do whatever it is that you wanted. Jesus shared these words with us which are located in the Book of Matthew as to explain:

Matthew 22:1-14

¹ And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
² The Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
³ And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
⁴ Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
⁵ But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
⁶ And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
⁷ But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
⁸ Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
⁹ Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
¹⁰ So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
¹¹ And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
¹² And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
¹³ Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
¹⁴ For many are called, but few are chosen.

Many souls have been chosen by God over the years, but, only a limited amount of them answered the call. The Lord calls more now to serve Him. But, many whom He has called have elected to pursue worldly matters instead. That is why it is said ... Many Called Few Chosen, because, few choose to surrender the worldly path.

They may be Christians, but they feel obligated to follow some or all of the worldly trends and find any reason they can to explain away why they cannot answer, even knowing God is calling. The problem is that there is a large task ahead and few laborers.

Matthew 9:37-38

³⁷ Then saith He unto His disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
³⁸ Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest.

Being Called by God is an Honor

When we are called and answer the calling, the Holy Spirit gives us specific gifts to use as to fulfill God's will.

1 Corinthians 12:4-13

⁴ Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
⁵ And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
⁶ And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
⁷ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
⁸ For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
⁹ To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
¹⁰ To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
¹¹ But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as He will.
¹² For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
¹³ For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

How Is God Calling You?
Being Called by God is a Gift

Now, there are different types of callings, better said, there are different types of jobs available when we are called by the Lord ... One person may be called to do this and another may be called to do that. These jobs are called administrations. There are many different administrations and these administrations are assigned based on what our particular Spiritual gifts are, which we were given by God, which you may not even know you possess as of yet. But, we will be Spiritually discerning that together in more detail a little later down the Many Called Few Chosen path.

Again ... There are many different administrations as we are told by the Apostle Paul:

1 Corinthians 12:28

And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

The purpose of these various administrations is to bring in the sheep (Lost Souls) and glorify God.

Ephesians 4:11-16

¹¹ And He [Jesus] gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
¹² For the perfecting of the Saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
¹³ Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
¹⁴ That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
¹⁵ But speaking the Truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
¹⁶ From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Many Called Few Chosen Bible Study Point of Interest ... This does not mean that one administration is of lesser value within the Body of Christ. Now, what is this Body of Christ we read about? Let's look at the description of the Body of Christ within 1 Corinthians, Chapter 12 ... This is a wonderful explanation by the Apostle Paul, of how we are all united in Christ and how we all should depend on and appreciate one another as well as the Spiritual gifts that each and every one has been or will be blessed with.

Let's take a look:

1 Corinthians 12:14-27

¹⁴ For the body is not one member, but many.
¹⁵ If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
¹⁶ And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
¹⁷ If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
¹⁸ But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased Him.
¹⁹ And if they were all one member, where were the body?
²⁰ But now are they many members, yet but one body.
²¹ And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
²² Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
²³ And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
²⁴ For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked.
²⁵ That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
²⁶ And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
²⁷ Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

Is God Calling You Too?
Are You Being Called By God?

We are to be one body and work in harmony together. We are not to hold pride or jealousy because we feel that another member of the Body of Christ received "better" gifts and therefore an administration which may be deemed as being more attractive or honorable. Here is another quick yet potent way to look at it, we will use the human body in this example;

In the human body, if the mouth was to say to the anus ... "Yo, look at me, I am seen by all. I am able to voice thoughts and expressions and I take in food that nourishes the entire body as for it to be able to maintain health and even life itself in reality. Ain't I something special!"

The anus, which is not as "comely" of a body part, can simply reply ... "Yes, my dear, this is true, I cannot deny it. However, if it were not for me, you would be full of it."

So, just as one human body part is as essential as the other ... One Administration within the body of Christ is just as important as the other and must be working together.

The Apostle Paul shared more on the Body of Christ in the Book of Romans, Chapter 12:

Romans 12:4-16

⁴ For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
⁵ So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
⁶ Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of Faith;
⁷ Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
⁸ Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
⁹ Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
¹⁰ Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
¹¹ Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
¹² Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
¹³ Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.
¹⁴ Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
¹⁵ Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
¹⁶ Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

The Apostle Paul also shared more in the epistle to the Ephesians:

Ephesians 4:1-4

¹ I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
² With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
³ Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
⁴ There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

This ... Is Unity of the Body of Christ.

Being Chosen by God Pit Stop ... There are different administrations and different Spiritual gifts given to each individual as God sees fit as to accomplish the tasks set before them to bring His will to pass. All parts of the body of Christ (Christians) are important and necessary and one should not be upset that they have been chosen by God to be a caregiver to a child of God as compared to let's say, being elected to be a prophet of God. It may be your calling, but it is God's call.

This Many Called Few Chosen Bible study expedition will provide you with Being called by God steps which will bring forth truth and provide you with information on the Spiritual gifts that God has given those whom He calls to serve Him by the Holy Spirit as to be able to better serve Him.

This Being Called By God SON-derful path of peace will reveal to you if you have been called and if so, what to do about it and how. This is a fourteen day path and one step should be done each day. As we sojourn along this Is God Calling You path, there will be times when you feel so spirited and energized that you will become very enthusiastic and believe that you are ready to move on to the next Many Called Few Chosen step before it is time, but you need to choose to perform this procedure as presented for the entire 14 days.

Each Many Called Few Chosen Step only takes about 15-30 minutes a day, but do not allow the brevity of the procedure to deceive you. It is the power of truth shared with us from our Lord and those who have walked the Christian path before us.

I know that it will be difficult to resist going on to the next step once you begin this exciting journey, but if your "cup runneth over" where does all that truth go, that doesn't fit into the cup?

Taking in too much at one time, you run the risk of forgetting some of it and not allowing the natural instincts and habits to establish these new beliefs.

In short my friend ... It is like vitamins for the soul that should be taken only once a day.
