[Christianity Oasis]

Greetings,

If you have arrived because you have chosen to follow the path within the Many Called Few Chosen Program ... Welcome.

This forum provides you with a means of sharing thoughts with others who are in the process of "learning the ropes" of serving God as you sojourn down the 14 day path.

It is time for those who feel they have been called to perform the doing thereof ...

2 Corinthians 8:11-12 ... Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have. For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

Are YOU called to be a shepherd?

An overseer of His flock ...

Acts 20:28 ... Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Peter shares a lil tip with us ...

1 PETER 5:2-4 ... Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

Pretty cool promise huh?

Do you feel called to serve the Lord by tending His sheep?

If so ... Prove it to Him.

Many called but few are chosen cuz few choose.


Now before you go off and believe you are not ready or unworthy ...

Consider this:

When Moses was called He said this to the Lord:

Exodus 4:10 ... And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.

Paul too was rude in speech ...

2 Corinthians 11:6 ... But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.


Samuel was but a child:

1 Samuel 2:18 ... But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.

Abraham had nothing but FAITH
David was but a shepherd boy.

If you feel you are too BAD to answer the call ... Consider this:

When Paul was called, he was on His way to imprison Christians.

Acts Chapter 9


The point is ... God chooses who HE wants to and there are no specific requirements. You need no PHD or even a high school diploma.

In fact, He chooses those who are deemed unworthy by the world and even themselves:

1 Corinthians 1:26-28 ... For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 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; 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.

So before you allow the enemy of our souls to talk you into believing that YOU could in no way be special to GOD (Which you may wanna ask why he would do so having such limited time and taking his time to make you feel unworthy) Or ... If the thought of being called by GOD may seem a lil far fetched ...

Consider the TRUTH the Bible has just shared.

Come ... Let the lil child within, who is filled with FAITH and loves a good adventure come forth and answer the call.

IF you have been called ... That is all you really need ... FAITH.

Matthew 17:20 ... ....... I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

WHAT A PROMISE !!!

Come, let's find out what the Lord has in store for you. Find a partner and start sharing thoughts in this forum. Show the Lord your devotion and fiery passion.

It is why you feel that VOID within ya know ...

This will complete YOU.

Once you have completed your 14 days, you should choose to start posting in the Christian Calling Forums and keep a journal in the Christian Calling Journals as to continue to grow in the Lord with fellow Christians who have answered the call, sharing your highs and lows as well as reading of others so that you will understand that this calling is absolutely awesome ... But is also fraught with trials, tribulation, heartbreak and despair, but the reward is ... Heavenly.

Luv all of ya
