It's simple. God calls. It's like the phone ringing in your heart and you do not answer. God's chosen are the one's that hear the phone ringing in their heart and answers the phone to speak to God.
God's call to "all" is the same as why we preach the Gospel to all. We don't know who the "chosen" are, but it will be [only] them who will respond to the call. I hope that answers some of you questions.
Nope. You're trying to reject the scripture to make it fit with your theology. Who is doing the inviting in the parable? The king is inviting people which represents God calling people. Why is the king inviting people? The king is inviting people to attend the wedding feast, which represents God inviting people to be saved. If salvation were the result of God compelling some people to believe and not compelling anyone else to do so, then what the text should say is "all who are called are chosen" or "all who are chosen are called". Instead, it says "many are called, but few are chosen" which shows a difference in the number of people God wants to be saved with the number of people who actually end up being saved. This is incompatible with the Calvinistic doctrine of unconditional election.
When Jesus personally reaches down from heaven and grabs you out of hell, then chastens you, but then tells you that you didn’t choose Him, rather He chose you.....that’s when you will know the difference. It will be a profound meeting with Jesus. Many are called, but few are chosen. Hallelujah! I was chosen on June 7, 2018...I was changed instantly and I will only follow Jesus...not the world.
I was an atheist in a middle of a suicide attempt when God filled me with the Holy Spirit. I wonder if that means I'm one of the chosen ones? The Holy Spirit stayed with me for 3 months. I don't deserve it, I'm having a hard time thinking God chose me for heaven because there are a lot of people more worthy than me
@@rudyferrell Did He come to you or did you go to Him. Don’t ever question or doubt what He did for you! None of us are worthy, that’s why we need Him! Hallelujah! Ask Him if you are one of His chosen. 🥰
@@brentducote4526You’ll know because God will reveal it to you. It can happen by way of waking up in the middle of the night to ideas being revealed to you. You’ll have dreams and visions of your purpose. You’ll know that the ideas are not yours but, God’s, and they’ll align with His will. You may not even want to be chosen when you are, but you’ll know you have to carry out his purpose for you.
The chosen are those who willingly attended the wedding feast. Those who don't attend the wedding feast weren't compelled by God not to; they willingly chose not to attend for their own reasons.
Guys we are in this together ! If you are seeking the one true living God, then keep seeking ! I went to the library to buy manga one day and I wanted to get my first Bible and ever since , it’s been a journey . I’m still seeking the Lord but it’s a big transition from my old lifestyle of drinking , smoking, etc. . Stay strong and Shalom.
For anyone that has this question, the bible says many are called few are chosen. We know Jesus isn't willing that anyone should perish and died for the world so that all man can live holy lives pleasing to the Lord. So all are called to live a life for God but not all answer to this call. Those that answer and choose to believe in his son are chosen. Proving that they were God's chosen to begin with. He knew you would answer the call so he named you his own before you even realized you were. Hopefully this helps someone God bless you all❤
@@marytitus2874 it's not about trying to force your self those that are in Christ are a new creature. Before I was saved 5 years ago I was a worker of the Devil, I was blind to the truth about Jesus. But when I finally got sick and tired of my sinful ways I accepted his calling. The Lord has been helping me. Reading the Bible which is the living word of God will help you transform your mind. And his wonderful Holy Spirit will lead and guide you in all paths of truth. You have to truly want it. Just have faith in the Lord he will never leave or forsake you. The first thing you need to do is accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. These are the last days everyone should have soul insurance and that's through Jesus Christ.
@@Crystal4Christ4Eva No I get that. I've believed for like 5 years but I've never wanted to fully surrender to Christ for multiple reasons and no matter what I do I can't like make myself really want it. I've been raped and tortured by demons for years and I'm pretty angry at God and like I mostly want to die, and if I can't die I basically don't want to do anything whatsoever.
You are called to do a task to help someone complete their mission. You are chosen, because you chose before you came here. I am chosen. And I have been called many times. 😊😇🤗
The ones who attend the wedding feast are the ones who are chosen. Those who are not chosen didn't lack an invitation; they willingly decided not to attend. God calls many, but only a few respond to His call and are therefore chosen. Being chosen doesn't compel you to respond to His call; responding to His call is what makes you chosen.
I know I have been chosen since birth. I have been through so much in my life. I dont remember much about my childhood. I remember wanting god to live since i was 6 or 7. I remember giving my soul to christ when i was 12. I have always needed their love. I have wanted to be like christ since i can remember. To know what it feels like to love all the people in the world. I have always wanted to change others lives. What other people feel matters to me.
People chosen is when there will be nothing stopping you to do the will of God for instance no matter what Joseph went through or who tried to stop him He still had victory Amen. Just like Jonah he was also called and chosen no matter how many times times He tried to run from Almighty God the Lord still made sure Jonah did His will! Chosen people of The Lord no matter what sistuation you are in the Lord is preparing a way out just to get His will accomplished in you. You're chosen and nothing can stop that anointing. For the called people ANSWER YOUR CALL! SAY "HERE AM I LORD SEND ME"! YES TELL THE LORD JESUS "IM ANSWERING MY CALL"! SPEAK BACK TO GOD THROUGH LORD JESUS CHRIST. SAY "LORD JESUS YES"! AND HE WILL DO THE REST! WE GOING TO MARRIAGE SUPPER GET READY! AS SOON AS YOU ANSWER YOUR CALL YOU BECOME CHOSEN.AMEN.

I've had quite a few people tell me that I would be good at preaching , . Now I am a sinner and don't go to church like I should, but when I get started about the bible , it's like I have so much to say, and say things I didn't really know . And I look it up and I would be like, wow this is amazing. Like the word( iota) came to me, never heard of it before in my life. And when I looked it up in the bible, it said, iota-the smallest letter in Hebrew, dot, or jot. And talks about the Old Testament being true. It blowed my mind, I was like thank u Lord. And like I said I am a sinner, but love talking about the bible, and like I said once I start I can't stop.
Please stop making up stuff. Lean not on your own understanding. The Chosen ones are the ones being transformed into Christ image and has shared in his sufferings. The “Overcomers.”
It's funny because I've been asking God about this for a few weeks. I still don't know if this answered my question, i listened to it twice. I'm going to continue to seek the Lord
I think what this parable means is that every one at some point in their life is called to become closer Jesus. Rather that be through hearing the Gospel, our own trials and tribulations, or a testimony from a fellow brother and sister in Christ or even a stranger. Everyone at some point is called to form a relationship with God and to become under grace. However, being chosen by God is an entirely different thing. When you're chosen you have an experience where God reveals himself to you and you're forever changed. Like to the point where you can't go back to your life of sin and the conviction to do good and to be apart of the kingdom of God is so strong in you there's no turning back.
The called are those who chose the Lord after being called. The chosen are those foreknown, called and chosen from the foundation of the world. They are predestined to salvation and transformed into the image of his son.

What if your wrong? We want to get it all for nothing and have people tickle our ears and tell us we're right on. But, if calling IS the gift/rebirth/justification then many people are in trouble because they will fall short of God's elect/chosen/sanctified/reward. I could quote many verses that tell us to build upon our calling (2 Pet 1.10, Titus 3.7), not to mention Romans 8.30 those whom He called, these He also justified. So called equals justified then chosen must mean more, like works/sanctified/elected/rewards.
Absolutely not. In the parable, attending the wedding feast represents being chosen, IE salvation. Being invited to the wedding feast therefore represents being invited to be chosen, IE being invited to salvation. God calls more people than are chosen, which means that God desires more people to be saved than actually end up being saved. If salvation were the result of God compelling a person to believe then everyone who God wants to be saved, IE everyone God calls, would be chosen. The very fact that not everyone who is called is chosen, IE not everyone who is invited to salvation by God ends up being saved, means that there's something about the people who are called that is the reason why they are or are not chosen, IE a condition for being chosen. We don't have to guess and wonder because the parable itself directly states why the people who were called did or didn't attend; did they willingly respond to the invtation to the wedding feast and come or did they decide to reject the invitation and therefore not come. That's the condition provided in the parable. Those who respond to God's calling, like responding to the invitation to the wedding feast, are chosen by God. Those who reject God's calling, like refusing to respond to the invitation to the wedding feast, are not chosen by God.
Nope. In the parable, it's the king who invites people to the wedding feast. This represents God invinting people to the Kingdom of Heaven. You can't say God doesn't want people to come to the Kingdom of Heaven when He's the one inviting them. God invites people to the kindom of heaven but not everyone comes; this isn't because God doesn't want them but rather because they refuse to come, as clearly stated in the parable.
By the way, for chosen people, their suffering starts from childhood. No matter what they do, they just seem to suffer if they’re not on track with God. But they who are called, their suffering starts immediately they answer to the call of Jesus
@@Abeliever000 a chosen one like Jonah suffered when refused to heed the instruction of God. You can see how God made life miserable for him until he surrendered. God could have used someone else since Jonah didn’t want to do it. But it was necessary he surrendered because he was chosen for it. That’s why he suffered the penalty for dodging God’s work. For calling, all of us are called unto repentance and into God’s kingdom. It’s optional. You take it or you leave it. But those that take it…Right from John the Baptist’s time, the kingdom of Heaven suffers violence and the violent takes it by force. Once you’re for Christ, there are sufferings that will come, but this time, it will be to strengthen your faith or to test you. And if it means dying for Christ like Stephen, we should. Knowing that a crown awaits us. I hope this clarifies…
@@Yahshuaismyeverything yeah that too! Like I explained to our bro/sis @aditi2411 This world actually is full of suffering. We can’t deny that. But what are you suffering for? Is it for your sin or for Christ? I hope you don’t mind me sharing my little experience… I grew up as a lonely person because to a large extent, I think God did want it that way. Many people I made my friends just seemed wrong before God. God always separated me from them by warnings. He told me if I don’t listen to Him, He’ll make life miserable for me. This was God speaking to me through a man of God. A random one! I wasn’t born again ohh, mind you! I was just a church-choir girl. Without real knowledge of God yet, as at then. And actually, I never had peace until I heeded the warning from God. My parents, especially my father seemed to pick fault at every little thing I do. I always cried because of how bad I felt each time he scolded me, even when I tried to do things right. That’s God for you. He uses peace to communicate with us sometimes. Everything is not until you’re told. What is stealing your peace? Check! Be sure you’re not disobeying God. He can take away your peace through anyone and any means until you obey Him, before He restores it. I have many other instances in my life that God seized my peace for a while to communicate to me that I was doing the wrong thing which I can’t mention all. Are there not many people that disobey God and still have their life as they wish? They’re called. But for one that’s chosen, whether you like it or not, it’s you and God bumper to bumper, if you disobey. The misery He’ll send you won’t be little. That’s why He’s called a Terrible God. His signs are never nice. But it’s always still for our good. That’s suffering because you’re chosen But suffering as a Christian is entirely different. If you read the beatitudes in Matthew 5, you’ll see clearly that you’ll still suffer as a Christian. But this time around, it’s not because you’re being disobedient, but because you’re now living a life for, with and in Christ. Remember, the beatitudes were given by Jesus Himself. He knew what He was saying when He spoke about us being reviled, persecuted, hated and all manner things done against us for His sake. These things are inevitable. But we must glory in our sufferings for Christ in order to receive the Crown of Life (James 1:12 & Rev 2:10). Jesus wanted to find out what He did that made the people want to crucify Him. He told pilate that His Kingdom is not of this world, otherwise His angels will fight and the people won’t be against Him. He was basically letting Pilate know that the people are against Him, because He’s of God. And not of this world. That’s why they were against Him. He was taking the suffering for God in obedience, in order that God’s redemption plan would be done and also for Himself, to be coronated after His resurrection. So bro, the suffering for Christ doesn’t end till we leave this world. The most basic suffering is to be hated by people. And you already know Christians are hated by people of the world. I hope that edifies…🤗
Called are those whom answer the call but do not persevere till the end because of the prosecution suffered at their personal level, and the chosen are those who shall never betray Jesus nor his Gospel even if the Bible tells them so.
@@degonsbanegas7802 all the disciples betrayed Jesus but repented and endured to the end except for Judas, who didn’t repent. Enduring to the end is key. God bless you

I have explained this to my fellow brothers in Christ. I believe by the power of God I explained it to them the difference between the chosen and called in a different way. I have my notes in front of me, but rather reading it to them I said words and explained it like it wasn’t me who is talking. Thanks you pastor!

Bible is like a puzzle. All must fit. If u think u r saved by believing but not evidence of holy life then there is a contradiction. That is why all must fit. Faith and works go hand in hand

@@slothop7541 If its not a puzzle how do you explain verses like when Jesus says I will lose none the Father has given me i.e the elect but in another verse it says those who endure to the end will be saved implying we have to do something yet its not of works seems like a puzzle to me :/ im not suggesting we can live a sinful life such a person was never saved I wouldnt think but when you just dont understand how things all work and what your supposed to do if anything its all confuisng
Its crazy how in church i learnt a completely different context and this one sounds most understandable to me. The other quotes of that scripture never made sense to me. Indeed revelation. So easy how we miss things.

It's very much like the military. Some join because they love their country & want to protect it & their people, while others join because they want the free schooling or other reasons. If a battle broke out, those who have that love to protect will not hesitate, while those that entered for other reasons may go hide or leave. (Awol) because they didn't love their country *that* much.
When the Lord first called Samuel, he thought the priest Eli had called him. Three times he went to Eli, who said he did not call him, and told him to go back and lay down. Finally Eli realized that it was the Lord who was calling Samuel. Eli told Samuel to respond the next time by saying: "Speak, for your servant is listening". See, First Samuel 3:1-21.
The difference is acts 9:15“Go!” said the Lord. “This man is My chosen instrument to carry My name before the Gentiles and their kings, and before the people of Israel. 16I will show him how much he must suffer for My name.”
Still not understanding the difference. But thanks to the comment section I received better answers then you gave. Thank you to those people. Thumbs up to them who better explained the difference.
That's because you're got beliefs in your head but no Faith in your heart. If you think you can figure out God with logic and reasoning and word definitions, then you're kinda lost.

Many are called: the gospel, the good news proclaimed. But few are chosen: The regenerate/born again, transformed from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of light It’s that simple and amazing
All are called .. then justified .. then saved .. and of the saved some are chosen for a deeper purpose after an observation of their character has been made . ( During the banquet ) For all are called all are justified all are saved but of that group few are chosen to go deeper into the energy of God. Even the chosen don't know they're being observed until they're chosen .

Some people who are not believers have Jesus come to them and personally call them. They have a profound experience with Jesus. For example, someone close to me who was against church was meditating and Jesus came to him which he never expected. He was into the new age. He was told to destroy all of his metaphysical stuff and other evil stuff in his home. He was shown the crucifixion and felt Jesus pain emotionally and physically. He felt the pain his sin caused others and how it impacted their lives. He was shown things in the Bible that he never knew and then led to the scripture. This man had been praying for truth, knowledge and wisdom, but couldn’t define god. He was so thirsty. He had asked to be shown the secrets. Much of what he was shown isn’t for all. He prayed to be led to hhs right church and not referring to the building. After 3 months, he observed a church and saw angels all around it. He saw a dove above the pastor and other. He had been praying constantly for 13 years. He knew there was something higher. Over 25 years ago, he tried to find god and studied all the religions. His wife said she remembered when he said 25 or so years ago he was something missing. He knew something wasn’t right in this world. Soon after, this guy destroyed about 15k of metaphysical stuff. He destroyed his television, guns and other after what he was shown. He said he was told by Jesus to get rid of that nonsense (essentially) . He is trying his best to walk in the spirit. His intentions are pure and as all, he has his struggles. To this day, this guy is reading the word, praying and meditating on it. He is asking Jesus to show him the way. He ask to be led by him and what Jesus wants him to do. How to serve? He so feels a calling, but not for sure what it is yet. His Christian consciousness is taking off. It seems most are called to Jesus thru man but a few are personally called. Is there a difference between being called by man and being called by god? One must ask the tough questions he says. He was shown to pay attention to how much time he gives his time to god vs non sense stuff. How much of one’s time is watching t.v or surfing the web for entertainment. He said he was shown if one is watching t.v. more than dedicating his time to god, the t.v.. was an idol. Many will say this is nuts, but truth can be painful. If you bring up getting rid of the t.v. in the home, people freak out. They will come up with every reason in the book or even divorce before ridding that object. That device controls the masses truth, which is many times inverted from actual. That’s another topic. Do an experiment and talk to people about ridding-the t.v.. See if you can turn off the t.v. For 7 days or surfing the web, social media and so forth. Let me say he wasn’t saying all t.v.s need to go, but be very careful what you watch and use it wisely . This includes any activity. So much more, but just thought I would share. Thoughts on chosen by god or called by god versus called by man? We can say god call some thru man but not all. So we are told it’s a narrow path and few shall enter the kingdom. One may ask, how many is a few?

The sufferings of Christ was Him knowing Truth while watching a world of blind men who could not see the light of Truth. He related to very few if any while on Earth. "The chosen" experience the same sufferings. To be called is the luxury of all men. To step into that calling leads to stepping into being chosen. The chosen are from the beginning with God. All are given a measure of Faith. Those who nurture and grow that Faith step into the role of the chosen who were with God from the beginning. All are given a measure of Faith it is by your choices that ye become the chosen. Its late in the game to become chosen it is a very hard process. The prodigal son experience can be lethal. But without it certain lessons do not develop. To learn the extent of God's grace & His Love requires the prodigal experience. But the prodigal son returns home and is grateful. He who sinneth much loveth much, where much is forgiven there is much gratitude. Love covers a multitude of sin. Faith, LOve, Hope are the greatest gifts. By now if you are chosen you will know it.
Rightly divide to the right people at the right time period. Dispensationalism will make the Bible clear, if your confused by trying to mix it all together it's because of a wrong doctrine or misinterpreted one. I found that Pastor Kim at BBC international has many videos that can clear up any confusion you may have. Kjv only too. God bless any who look and do their research, I hope the teaching and preaching you find will help you in your walk with Christ

Here for the comments. Looks like we have a myriad of unmarried, humble and loving appreciative men in the world. Big ups to you all, now look inside yourselves, all the answers are there. For those of you that embrace your fondest desires, just be specific and patient, you got this. It starts within by change your thoughts you change your world… mindset is key!💝Romans 8:28
He Called on me age 11/12 I asked Him if that calling was coming from His to manifest it When I went forward decades later afterwards God showed me the work He had been utilizing me to do for Him only made worthy from being reconciled to Him thru Lord Jesus Christ, His son.
As I reflected on this question, a couple of verses came to mind. Second Thessalonians 2:13-14. "We ought always to be thanking GOD for you, brothers dearly loved by the LORD, because GOD chose you from the beginning for salvation through the SPIRIT'S consecration of you and through your faith in the truth, and to this end HE called you by our preaching of the good news, so that you may obtain the glory of our LORD JESUS CHRIST". In verse 13, GOD "chose" individuals for HIS salvation. HE does this without our knowledge of HIM doing so. This is because we did not exist when HE "chose" us. "HE chose us" [for salvation]" in HIM before the foundation of the world, Ephesians 1:4". Then in verse 14, GOD "calls" us [to salvation] through the preaching of the gospel. Before we come to salvation, our spirit is utterly "dead" Ephesians 2:1-5. As the gospel is preached, the HOLY SPIRIT quickens our spirit and make us aware of our need of salvation as GOD "calls" us. So to be "chosen" by GOD and then to be "called" by GOD are two distinct actions performed by GOD alone outside of any actions by us. Theologians call this a monergistic event. I hope this information helps.
Have worked with some Apaches in Arizona and studied some about their beliefs. They have a belief that there are those who chase after the Spirit and there are those that the Spirit chases after them. If those accept the Spirit, they must endure whatever comes after.
When you are called by God it totally means you are appointed and called by God himself that call comes with a special annoiting 1 your spiritual eyes are empower by God to see things in the spiritual realm 2 you have the gift of healing to lay hands as the spirit of God instruct you to lay your hand and persons are heal 3 the gift to decern etc
To uplift and encourage you. One day, out of the blue, I understood completely how much God loves and cherishes me as I am. So I invited him to fill my heart with His Love and Heavenly Peace to overflowing. I felt his love surround me like a warm comforting blanket. I no longer worry about what anyone thinks of me. Whether they like me or not. Care about me or not. Knowing Jesus loves me by dying on the cross to save me from hell is more than enough for me! LET THE PEACE OF CHRIST RULE IN YOUR HEARTS, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful (humbled and his disciples of peace). Colossians 3:15 NIV THIS IS HOW PEOPLE WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AUTHENTIC CHRISTIANS! AUTHENTIC CHRISTENS CAN SEE THE DEVIL MASQUERADING AS AN ANGEL OF LIGHT WHEN THEY HAVE JESUS IN THEIR HEART. HIS PEACE REIGNS SUPREME. THEY FOLLOW HIS TEACHINGS OBIDIENTLY. FALSE TEACHERS DO NOT AND MIX WORLDLY TEACHINGS WITH GODLY ONES. My heart is filled with so much of his heavenly peace that it overflows with heavenly love. I feel so loved and cherished. NO ONE AND NOTHING CAN EVER HURT ME AGAIN! Now, I am at peace with everything and everyone in my life. I can even forgive and bless my enemies! If you haven't already, I encourage you to invite him! He is knocking at the door of your heart waiting for you to open it so he can embrace you with Heavenly Love! JESUS SAID keep your mind on him and he will keep you in perfect heavenly peace. I am now centered, grounded and balanced in Heavenly Peace. NO ONE AND NOTHING WILL HARM YOU WHEN JESUS IS IN YOUR HEART.

Many are called, but few are chosen. If being chosen means salvation and being called means an invitation to salvation, as the parable suggests, then it therefore cannot be the case that everyone who is called is compelled to be chosen, IE that everyone who God wants to be saved is compelled to believe in Him. This is because more people are called by God to salvation than are chosen by Him. The chosen are chosen because they respond to God's calling. This conclusion is inescapable with anyone who wants to be honest with the text, and it fits nicely with other parts of scripture that state God is not willing that any should perish, that God desires all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth, etc. God calls all, but He only chooses those who willingly respond to His calling. God wants everyone to be saved, but He only saves those who willingly put their faith in Him.
How do you know if you are really called or your just deceiving yourself? Believing dosen't matter because the devil believes.I think alot of people are in real danger of eternal punishment thinking they are good with God.
Another scripture that supports this theory of called vs. chosen is Timothy 2:20 It reads: “In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.” 2 Timothy 2:20-21 NIV It talks of different kinds of people. By cleansing ourselves and becoming more like Jesus he is able to use us for greater things. But we can choose to be used for common things and in some translations common is interchangeable with “dishonorable” things. So yes, many are called, but to be chosen means to be a special instrument used for great things. But you became special by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior and allowing him to transform our lives. That’s the glory He is looking for as a demonstration of his power.
I think it mean some people are predestined and some have a choice. I think the one that is chosen are good people. They been chosen since the day they were born.
Called linked to 2 Timothy 1:9, which states, 'Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began!' This calling is done by God, and God alone without any help form humans. Chosen: Out of many that are called, only a few of those people are chosen, and those that are chosen are those who not only believe the gospel, but have repented, entered into the kingdom of God, baptized, and continue to carry on the gospel of Christ, as well as the continuation to follow Christ, to seek Him, strive to 'do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God.' May God open your eyes to the truth!
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9 NIV *I always thought of being chosen by God (before He created me in my Mother's womb) was the same as a call from God to Follow Him. I think this Scripture means God calls us to follow Him. But, few accept that call. And, the ones who actually Follow Jesus are the chosen ones because not all the world will answer to the invitation to live for Christ...

You are Chosen to represent Jesus on Earth until He returns. In His place, you show the fallen His Grace. God desires that NONE would perish, but all would come to Repentence. All means all. Is that IMPORTANT to you?
Food for thought: there are two new testament covenants - 1st is Born again: sealed with the Holy Spirit: the chosen (John 3 v 3) or you won't enter the kingdom of heaven. - 2nd is Salvation: saved by grace: Romans 10 v 9-10) and grafted in (Romans 11 v 21). If you are chosen (sealed with the Holy Spirit) you are born again. If you are called (saved by grace) you can be cut off, because if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you. If God chooses you, His Will, will be done. If God calls you, it's your will, that will be done. Stay strong in faith and follow your calling 🙏
Hi, I’m one of the chosen ones ,as I have researched all that is happening to me, I have a vid to tell ya what I see 24/7 since 12/21/20 when I was super upgraded. I don’t know of anyone who sees what I can see at will
Ron Lee got it! The Called are everyone. Everyone is Called. However, the Chosen are people that were chosen to do God's work. Noah was Chosen, Judas Iscariot was chosen, the Scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees, who lied about Christ were chosen,; David, Abraham, Moses were Chosen. They had to do what they were chosen to do.
He said He would draw all men unto Him. And no man comes to the Father but the Spirit draw him. I believe all are given the opportunity to answer the call. Not everyone does.
I do get it he explains in in depth which can lose your understanding. Read this in Bible and then go back to listen to this twice if you need to. It really does make sense.
It's simple. God calls. It's like the phone ringing in your heart and you do not answer. God's chosen are the one's that hear the phone ringing in their heart and answers the phone to speak to God.
Lovers of truth will live
Hello!
Its ringin in my head long... what to press to answare?!😂😂😂
You got it that is the difference.
That’s the best simple way to explain it lol. Our free will is still maintained
God's call to "all" is the same as why we preach the Gospel to all. We don't know who the "chosen" are, but it will be [only] them who will respond to the call. I hope that answers some of you questions.
Thank You, my friend!
Nope. You're trying to reject the scripture to make it fit with your theology. Who is doing the inviting in the parable? The king is inviting people which represents God calling people. Why is the king inviting people? The king is inviting people to attend the wedding feast, which represents God inviting people to be saved. If salvation were the result of God compelling some people to believe and not compelling anyone else to do so, then what the text should say is "all who are called are chosen" or "all who are chosen are called". Instead, it says "many are called, but few are chosen" which shows a difference in the number of people God wants to be saved with the number of people who actually end up being saved. This is incompatible with the Calvinistic doctrine of unconditional election.
When Jesus personally reaches down from heaven and grabs you out of hell, then chastens you, but then tells you that you didn’t choose Him, rather He chose you.....that’s when you will know the difference. It will be a profound meeting with Jesus. Many are called, but few are chosen. Hallelujah! I was chosen on June 7, 2018...I was changed instantly and I will only follow Jesus...not the world.
I was an atheist in a middle of a suicide attempt when God filled me with the Holy Spirit. I wonder if that means I'm one of the chosen ones? The Holy Spirit stayed with me for 3 months. I don't deserve it, I'm having a hard time thinking God chose me for heaven because there are a lot of people more worthy than me
@@rudyferrell Did He come to you or did you go to Him. Don’t ever question or doubt what He did for you! None of us are worthy, that’s why we need Him! Hallelujah! Ask Him if you are one of His chosen. 🥰

I am not doubting what you are saying but my question is how do you know you are chosen? Again not baiting you, I genuinely wanna know.
@@brentducote4526You’ll know because God will reveal it to you. It can happen by way of waking up in the middle of the night to ideas being revealed to you. You’ll have dreams and visions of your purpose. You’ll know that the ideas are not yours but, God’s, and they’ll align with His will. You may not even want to be chosen when you are, but you’ll know you have to carry out his purpose for you.
The chosen are those who willingly attended the wedding feast. Those who don't attend the wedding feast weren't compelled by God not to; they willingly chose not to attend for their own reasons.
Guys we are in this together ! If you are seeking the one true living God, then keep seeking !

When you hear the truth, you will feel it. Trust in God! 🤗😇
For anyone that has this question, the bible says many are called few are chosen. We know Jesus isn't willing that anyone should perish and died for the world so that all man can live holy lives pleasing to the Lord. So all are called to live a life for God but not all answer to this call. Those that answer and choose to believe in his son are chosen. Proving that they were God's chosen to begin with. He knew you would answer the call so he named you his own before you even realized you were. Hopefully this helps someone God bless you all❤
Thank you for this explanation it was perfect bought a lot of understanding.
@@Crystal4Christ4Eva ur welcome ❤😊
So if I can't force myself to live for God then there's just no hope?
@@marytitus2874 it's not about trying to force your self those that are in Christ are a new creature. Before I was saved 5 years ago I was a worker of the Devil, I was blind to the truth about Jesus. But when I finally got sick and tired of my sinful ways I accepted his calling. The Lord has been helping me. Reading the Bible which is the living word of God will help you transform your mind. And his wonderful Holy Spirit will lead and guide you in all paths of truth. You have to truly want it. Just have faith in the Lord he will never leave or forsake you. The first thing you need to do is accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. These are the last days everyone should have soul insurance and that's through Jesus Christ.
@@Crystal4Christ4Eva No I get that. I've believed for like 5 years but I've never wanted to fully surrender to Christ for multiple reasons and no matter what I do I can't like make myself really want it. I've been raped and tortured by demons for years and I'm pretty angry at God and like I mostly want to die, and if I can't die I basically don't want to do anything whatsoever.
You are called to do a task to help someone complete their mission. You are chosen, because you chose before you came here. I am chosen. And I have been called many times. 😊😇🤗
The ones who attend the wedding feast are the ones who are chosen. Those who are not chosen didn't lack an invitation; they willingly decided not to attend. God calls many, but only a few respond to His call and are therefore chosen. Being chosen doesn't compel you to respond to His call; responding to His call is what makes you chosen.
I love Jesus I wanna give him a hug😇🕊✝️🥰🙏🏻
I do too.
Me too
I wanna bow down at his feet and thank him for everything.❤✝️

I know I have been chosen since birth. I have been through so much in my life. I dont remember much about my childhood. I remember wanting god to live since i was 6 or 7. I remember giving my soul to christ when i was 12. I have always needed their love. I have wanted to be like christ since i can remember. To know what it feels like to love all the people in the world. I have always wanted to change others lives. What other people feel matters to me.
Be encouraged in your life,you're not alone. For God cares about those who fear Him. God bless you !♡
People chosen is when there will be nothing stopping you to do the will of God for instance no matter what Joseph went through or who tried to stop him He still had victory Amen. Just like Jonah he was also called and chosen no matter how many times times He tried to run from Almighty God the Lord still made sure Jonah did His will! Chosen people of The Lord no matter what sistuation you are in the Lord is preparing a way out just to get His will accomplished in you. You're chosen and nothing can stop that anointing. For the called people ANSWER YOUR CALL! SAY "HERE AM I LORD SEND ME"! YES TELL THE LORD JESUS "IM ANSWERING MY CALL"! SPEAK BACK TO GOD THROUGH LORD JESUS CHRIST. SAY "LORD JESUS YES"! AND HE WILL DO THE REST! WE GOING TO MARRIAGE SUPPER GET READY! AS SOON AS YOU ANSWER YOUR CALL YOU BECOME CHOSEN.AMEN.

I've had quite a few people tell me that I would be good at preaching , . Now I am a sinner and don't go to church like I should, but when I get started about the bible , it's like I have so much to say, and say things I didn't really know . And I look it up and I would be like, wow this is amazing. Like the word( iota) came to me, never heard of it before in my life. And when I looked it up in the bible, it said, iota-the smallest letter in Hebrew, dot, or jot. And talks about the Old Testament being true. It blowed my mind, I was like thank u Lord. And like I said I am a sinner, but love talking about the bible, and like I said once I start I can't stop.
Chosen you co-creators of our own reality. Chosen born to stand out. Called to take on a mission. Chosen to lead others to the great mysteries of life
This makes sense was totally confused. Thanks for the insight.
Please stop making up stuff. Lean not on your own understanding. The Chosen ones are the ones being transformed into Christ image and has shared in his sufferings. The “Overcomers.”
I was chosen he’s shown me that truth
Thank you❤
this is luciferian doctrine, we don't create our own realities, stay away from such garbage.

I think what this parable means is that every one at some point in their life is called to become closer Jesus. Rather that be through hearing the Gospel, our own trials and tribulations, or a testimony from a fellow brother and sister in Christ or even a stranger. Everyone at some point is called to form a relationship with God and to become under grace. However, being chosen by God is an entirely different thing. When you're chosen you have an experience where God reveals himself to you and you're forever changed. Like to the point where you can't go back to your life of sin and the conviction to do good and to be apart of the kingdom of God is so strong in you there's no turning back.

It means Gods elect. The gospel goes out to the masses, but, only God's elect shall respond.
What if your wrong? We want to get it all for nothing and have people tickle our ears and tell us we're right on. But, if calling IS the gift/rebirth/justification then many people are in trouble because they will fall short of God's elect/chosen/sanctified/reward. I could quote many verses that tell us to build upon our calling (2 Pet 1.10, Titus 3.7), not to mention Romans 8.30 those whom He called, these He also justified. So called equals justified then chosen must mean more, like works/sanctified/elected/rewards.
Election does not equal salvation.
Absolutely not. In the parable, attending the wedding feast represents being chosen, IE salvation. Being invited to the wedding feast therefore represents being invited to be chosen, IE being invited to salvation. God calls more people than are chosen, which means that God desires more people to be saved than actually end up being saved. If salvation were the result of God compelling a person to believe then everyone who God wants to be saved, IE everyone God calls, would be chosen. The very fact that not everyone who is called is chosen, IE not everyone who is invited to salvation by God ends up being saved, means that there's something about the people who are called that is the reason why they are or are not chosen, IE a condition for being chosen. We don't have to guess and wonder because the parable itself directly states why the people who were called did or didn't attend; did they willingly respond to the invtation to the wedding feast and come or did they decide to reject the invitation and therefore not come. That's the condition provided in the parable. Those who respond to God's calling, like responding to the invitation to the wedding feast, are chosen by God. Those who reject God's calling, like refusing to respond to the invitation to the wedding feast, are not chosen by God.
Wow this is revelation for me ❤ praise Abba.
Easy :
Called is when you hear the good news of salvation.
Chosen is biblically hand pick before time. .
I agree.
...?
Chosen are the ones who used free will to answer
Nope. In the parable, it's the king who invites people to the wedding feast. This represents God invinting people to the Kingdom of Heaven. You can't say God doesn't want people to come to the Kingdom of Heaven when He's the one inviting them. God invites people to the kindom of heaven but not everyone comes; this isn't because God doesn't want them but rather because they refuse to come, as clearly stated in the parable.
By the way, for chosen people, their suffering starts from childhood. No matter what they do, they just seem to suffer if they’re not on track with God. But they who are called, their suffering starts immediately they answer to the call of Jesus
Can you expand on this? I really want to know what you mean by this and if Bible says so (because of my own suffering).
I suffer even when I’m on track with God Ik God chosen me but I’ve always suffered in some way
@@Abeliever000 a chosen one like Jonah suffered when refused to heed the instruction of God. You can see how God made life miserable for him until he surrendered. God could have used someone else since Jonah didn’t want to do it. But it was necessary he surrendered because he was chosen for it. That’s why he suffered the penalty for dodging God’s work. For calling, all of us are called unto repentance and into God’s kingdom. It’s optional. You take it or you leave it. But those that take it…Right from John the Baptist’s time, the kingdom of Heaven suffers violence and the violent takes it by force. Once you’re for Christ, there are sufferings that will come, but this time, it will be to strengthen your faith or to test you. And if it means dying for Christ like Stephen, we should. Knowing that a crown awaits us.
I hope this clarifies…

Many people I made my friends just seemed wrong before God. God always separated me from them by warnings. He told me if I don’t listen to Him, He’ll make life miserable for me. This was God speaking to me through a man of God. A random one! I wasn’t born again ohh, mind you! I was just a church-choir girl. Without real knowledge of God yet, as at then. And actually, I never had peace until I heeded the warning from God. My parents, especially my father seemed to pick fault at every little thing I do. I always cried because of how bad I felt each time he scolded me, even when I tried to do things right. That’s God for you. He uses peace to communicate with us sometimes. Everything is not until you’re told. What is stealing your peace? Check! Be sure you’re not disobeying God. He can take away your peace through anyone and any means until you obey Him, before He restores it. I have many other instances in my life that God seized my peace for a while to communicate to me that I was doing the wrong thing which I can’t mention all. Are there not many people that disobey God and still have their life as they wish? They’re called. But for one that’s chosen, whether you like it or not, it’s you and God bumper to bumper, if you disobey. The misery He’ll send you won’t be little. That’s why He’s called a Terrible God. His signs are never nice. But it’s always still for our good. That’s suffering because you’re chosen
But suffering as a Christian is entirely different. If you read the beatitudes in Matthew 5, you’ll see clearly that you’ll still suffer as a Christian. But this time around, it’s not because you’re being disobedient, but because you’re now living a life for, with and in Christ. Remember, the beatitudes were given by Jesus Himself. He knew what He was saying when He spoke about us being reviled, persecuted, hated and all manner things done against us for His sake. These things are inevitable. But we must glory in our sufferings for Christ in order to receive the Crown of Life (James 1:12 & Rev 2:10).
Jesus wanted to find out what He did that made the people want to crucify Him. He told pilate that His Kingdom is not of this world, otherwise His angels will fight and the people won’t be against Him. He was basically letting Pilate know that the people are against Him, because He’s of God. And not of this world. That’s why they were against Him. He was taking the suffering for God in obedience, in order that God’s redemption plan would be done and also for Himself, to be coronated after His resurrection.
So bro, the suffering for Christ doesn’t end till we leave this world. The most basic suffering is to be hated by people. And you already know Christians are hated by people of the world.
I hope that edifies…🤗
you are very correct !
Called is you get to interview chosen means you got the job
Ha I like that!
Called are those whom answer the call but do not persevere till the end because of the prosecution suffered at their personal level, and the chosen are those who shall never betray Jesus nor his Gospel even if the Bible tells them so.
Endeavor to persavere.
@@degonsbanegas7802 all the disciples betrayed Jesus but repented and endured to the end except for Judas, who didn’t repent. Enduring to the end is key. God bless you
@@degonsbanegas7802 Umm, A LOT of God’s chosen in the Old Testament, fell off the wagon, so to speak. So did Jesus’s disciples... but they are all still ‘chosen’. You’re not chosen by the measurement of how well you stood up to persecution or ridicule. You become ‘chosen’ by God’s perfect grace. His perfect grace chooses imperfect me & you!
I have explained this to my fellow brothers in Christ. I believe by the power of God I explained it to them the difference between the chosen and called in a different way. I have my notes in front of me, but rather reading it to them I said words and explained it like it wasn’t me who is talking. Thanks you pastor!

Bible is like a puzzle. All must fit. If u think u r saved by believing but not evidence of holy life then there is a contradiction. That is why all must fit. Faith and works go hand in hand
HOW does it connect w/ the usage of the words: "Called" & "Chosen" ?
Rod Sarmiento please read what I wrote
I don't understand why im having trouble being holy I want to be and I know its a process but ive been struggling with 1 sin for a long while now and I cant seem to be rid of it im also tempted to do wrong things often but I resist most of the time im just cofused o how sanctification works ive only been a Christian 2 years but im unsure im saved for lots of reasons and im confused :(
Adriana Gumienny the holy bible is not a puzzle. Got says what he says is plain and simple and it’s truth. THERE IS NO TWIST TO IT LOL
@@slothop7541 If its not a puzzle how do you explain verses like when Jesus says I will lose none the Father has given me i.e the elect but in another verse it says those who endure to the end will be saved implying we have to do something yet its not of works seems like a puzzle to me :/ im not suggesting we can live a sinful life such a person was never saved I wouldnt think but when you just dont understand how things all work and what your supposed to do if anything its all confuisng

What does that mean?
Its crazy how in church i learnt a completely different context and this one sounds most understandable to me. The other quotes of that scripture never made sense to me. Indeed revelation. So easy how we miss things.
Gotta love "Pastor speak."
By the time Pastor supplies an answer to the inquiry, I've nearly forgotten the question.
Bless his ❤️ !!!
As I was watching this video the thought came to mind that this verse goes so well with. The thought is this: so many people around the world especially in the USA say they are Christian but I fear that a lot are not. Still only God knows! I think that goes hand in hand many are called but God knows the ones that are really His!!!!
Thank you. That made a lot more sense.
Abigail Mendez your welcome, May God bless you Abigail!!!
Amen..thats true if were not going to be carefull if what were reading it gives us doubt nd mesleading to understand bout the words of God..thanks once again God bless..your all in our prayers

MANY ARE CALLED TO RIGHTEOUSNESS AS JESUS KNOCKS AT THE DOOR TO OPEN THEIR HEART, BUT THE CARES OF THE WORLD WILL KEEP THEM FROM ENTERING IN THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW WAY BECAUSE OF THE PROTOCOLS TO LIVE RIGHT. THEY CAN'T DO WHAT THEY WANT. A FEW WILL MAKE IT IN. THESE ARE THE ONES THAT ARE CHOSEN. MANY ARE CALLED BUT FEW ARE CHOSEN. MATTHEW 7:13-14
There was a clarion call sent across the universe, for volunteers to come to earth at this time. The ones who came and answered that call, are the chosen... and they are here now.. WE are here now.
If you are still asleep, wake up NOW. The chosen are now being activated to start thier mission. Time is short... i cannot stress this enough!

We all want to be chosen but i believe it's obedience that counts
I, Annelies Bakker, pray God almigthy shows me the difference between called and chosen in my life from now on and all days and nigths to come, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ: amen!
The Pastor is correct. He could have explained it a little better.

through the "call" of the Christian Gospel.

from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

Remember, in Matthew 13, the Lord explains that the

of both many unsaved "tares" (sown by Satan) destined to eternal torment
and relatively few saved "wheat" (sown by God) destined to eternal life.

To all who believes in GOD, I AM HERE!!! I WELCOME ALL???
It's very much like the military. Some join because they love their country & want to protect it & their people, while others join because they want the free schooling or other reasons.
If a battle broke out, those who have that love to protect will not hesitate, while those that entered for other reasons may go hide or leave. (Awol) because they didn't love their country *that* much.
The parable of the good seed completely refutes once saved always saved.
It just means they were never saved before... “If they left us they were never of us in the first place”
Born Again Are you quoting 1 John 2:19? Because I don’t think that is what it means.
@@legomeego8581 would love to hear some wisdom on it God bless
When the Lord first called Samuel, he thought the priest Eli had called him. Three times he went to Eli, who said he did not call him, and told him to go back and lay down. Finally Eli realized that it was the Lord who was calling Samuel. Eli told Samuel to respond the next time by saying: "Speak, for your servant is listening".
See, First Samuel 3:1-21.
The difference is acts 9:15“Go!” said the Lord. “This man is My chosen instrument to carry My name before the Gentiles and their kings, and before the people of Israel. 16I will show him how much he must suffer for My name.”
Jesus is the only way to the Father❤️
Still not understanding the difference. But thanks to the comment section I received better answers then you gave. Thank you to those people. Thumbs up to them who better explained the difference.
Right? I gave the video a “thumbs down” because he didn’t explain the difference between called and chosen. The commenters did a better job.

not all who goes to church are saved. only those whom the father draws... by their fruits you shall know them. Amen, obedience is the key..
That's what I been telling many people only a few literally are chosen not app believers were chosen many were called it's rare to be chosen
YEAYE! _ALL GLORY_ goes to the KING of kings, and LORD of lords!
Many are called: the gospel, the good news proclaimed. But few are chosen: The regenerate/born again, transformed from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of light
It’s that simple and amazing
All are called .. then justified .. then saved .. and of the saved some are chosen for a deeper purpose after an observation of their character has been made . ( During the banquet ) For all are called all are justified all are saved but of that group few are chosen to go deeper into the energy of God. Even the chosen don't know they're being observed until they're chosen .
Amen.
Thank you so much for this explanation. Thank you.
This is true
I love God ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️▫️
Absolutely. However.... Let's not forget the Holy Spirit that is our teacher. The meaning is hidden to the unbeliever and cannot be understood through a carnal minded interpretation. Blessings to you Brother. ♥️
Some people who are not believers have Jesus come to them and personally call them. They have a profound experience with Jesus. For example, someone close to me who was against church was meditating and Jesus came to him which he never expected. He was into the new age. He was told to destroy all of his metaphysical stuff and other evil stuff in his home. He was shown the crucifixion and felt Jesus pain emotionally and physically. He felt the pain his sin caused others and how it impacted their lives. He was shown things in the Bible that he never knew and then led to the scripture. This man had been praying for truth, knowledge and wisdom, but couldn’t define god. He was so thirsty. He had asked to be shown the secrets. Much of what he was shown isn’t for all. He prayed to be led to hhs right church and not referring to the building. After 3 months, he observed a church and saw angels all around it. He saw a dove above the pastor and other. He had been praying constantly for 13 years. He knew there was something higher. Over 25 years ago, he tried to find god and studied all the religions. His wife said she remembered when he said 25 or so years ago he was something missing. He knew something wasn’t right in this world. Soon after, this guy destroyed about 15k of metaphysical stuff. He destroyed his television, guns and other after what he was shown. He said he was told by Jesus to get rid of that nonsense (essentially) . He is trying his best to walk in the spirit. His intentions are pure and as all, he has his struggles. To this day, this guy is reading the word, praying and meditating on it. He is asking Jesus to show him the way. He ask to be led by him and what Jesus wants him to do. How to serve? He so feels a calling, but not for sure what it is yet. His Christian consciousness is taking off. It seems most are called to Jesus thru man but a few are personally called. Is there a difference between being called by man and being called by god? One must ask the tough questions he says. He was shown to pay attention to how much time he gives his time to god vs non sense stuff. How much of one’s time is watching t.v or surfing the web for entertainment. He said he was shown if one is watching t.v. more than dedicating his time to god, the t.v.. was an idol. Many will say this is nuts, but truth can be painful. If you bring up getting rid of the t.v. in the home, people freak out. They will come up with every reason in the book or even divorce before ridding that object. That device controls the masses truth, which is many times inverted from actual. That’s another topic. Do an experiment and talk to people about ridding-the t.v.. See if you can turn off the t.v. For 7 days or surfing the web, social media and so forth. Let me say he wasn’t saying all t.v.s need to go, but be very careful what you watch and use it wisely . This includes any activity. So much more, but just thought I would share. Thoughts on chosen by god or called by god versus called by man? We can say god call some thru man but not all. So we are told it’s a narrow path and few shall enter the kingdom. One may ask, how many is a few?

(many are called by the Christian Gospel) but FEW are chosen (few are chosen to be saved)

I am TERRIFIED trembling in fear
Why? Fear is of the Devil... cancel the fear in the name of Jesus!!
It's a huge difference between called and chosen
The sufferings of Christ was Him knowing Truth while watching a world of blind men who could not see the light of Truth. He related to very few if any while on Earth. "The chosen" experience the same sufferings. To be called is the luxury of all men. To step into that calling leads to stepping into being chosen. The chosen are from the beginning with God. All are given a measure of Faith. Those who nurture and grow that Faith step into the role of the chosen who were with God from the beginning. All are given a measure of Faith it is by your choices that ye become the chosen. Its late in the game to become chosen it is a very hard process. The prodigal son experience can be lethal. But without it certain lessons do not develop. To learn the extent of God's grace & His Love requires the prodigal experience. But the prodigal son returns home and is grateful. He who sinneth much loveth much, where much is forgiven there is much gratitude. Love covers a multitude of sin. Faith, LOve, Hope are the greatest gifts. By now if you are chosen you will know it.
Thank you for the word Brother. God Bless ❤️🔥🙏🏾
Being called means you are invited and being chosen means you are a favorite.
nothing wrong with being favored
There is no favouritism with God
Romans 2:11 For God does not show favoritism.
No it doesn't..there is no favoritism with God..He says He's NO respector of persons
God is Lord of All. There are no favorites
He just chooses whoever he wishes and calls everyone
Many forms of discipline ....Seek God's guidance in disciplining
Rightly divide to the right people at the right time period. Dispensationalism will make the Bible clear, if your confused by trying to mix it all together it's because of a wrong doctrine or misinterpreted one. I found that Pastor Kim at BBC international has many videos that can clear up any confusion you may have. Kjv only too.
God bless any who look and do their research, I hope the teaching and preaching you find will help you in your walk with Christ

Here for the comments. Looks like we have a myriad of unmarried, humble and loving appreciative men in the world. Big ups to you all, now look inside yourselves, all the answers are there. For those of you that embrace your fondest desires, just be specific and patient, you got this. It starts within by change your thoughts you change your world… mindset is key!💝Romans 8:28
He Called on me age 11/12
I asked Him if that calling was coming from His to manifest it
When I went forward decades later afterwards God showed me the work He had been utilizing me to do for Him only made worthy from being reconciled to Him thru Lord Jesus Christ, His son.
As I reflected on this question, a couple of verses came to mind. Second Thessalonians 2:13-14. "We ought always to be thanking GOD for you, brothers dearly loved by the LORD, because GOD chose you from the beginning for salvation through the SPIRIT'S consecration of you and through your faith in the truth, and to this end HE called you by our preaching of the good news, so that you may obtain the glory of our LORD JESUS CHRIST". In verse 13, GOD "chose" individuals for HIS salvation. HE does this without our knowledge of HIM doing so. This is because we did not exist when HE "chose" us. "HE chose us" [for salvation]" in HIM before the foundation of the world, Ephesians 1:4". Then in verse 14, GOD "calls" us [to salvation] through the preaching of the gospel. Before we come to salvation, our spirit is utterly "dead" Ephesians 2:1-5. As the gospel is preached, the HOLY SPIRIT quickens our spirit and make us aware of our need of salvation as GOD "calls" us. So to be "chosen" by GOD and then to be "called" by GOD are two distinct actions performed by GOD alone outside of any actions by us. Theologians call this a monergistic event. I hope this information helps.
Many Wheel of Fortune contestants are called, but few are chosen...
Have worked with some Apaches in Arizona and studied some about their beliefs. They have a belief that there are those who chase after the Spirit and there are those that the Spirit chases after them. If those accept the Spirit, they must endure whatever comes after.
i am chosen!
When you are called by God it totally means you are appointed and called by God himself that call comes with a special annoiting 1 your spiritual eyes are empower by God to see things in the spiritual realm
2 you have the gift of healing to lay hands as the spirit of God instruct you to lay your hand and persons are heal
3 the gift to decern etc
Thank you for the great interpretation. Amen

It is most definitely two separate things
Shout out to my man from Chesterton!
To uplift and encourage you.
One day, out of the blue, I understood completely how much God loves and cherishes me as I am. So I invited him to fill my heart with His Love and Heavenly Peace to overflowing. I felt his love surround me like a warm comforting blanket. I no longer worry about what anyone thinks of me. Whether they like me or not. Care about me or not. Knowing Jesus loves me by dying on the cross to save me from hell is more than enough for me!
LET THE PEACE OF CHRIST RULE IN YOUR HEARTS, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful (humbled and his disciples of peace). Colossians 3:15 NIV
THIS IS HOW PEOPLE WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AUTHENTIC CHRISTIANS! AUTHENTIC CHRISTENS CAN SEE THE DEVIL MASQUERADING AS AN ANGEL OF LIGHT WHEN THEY HAVE JESUS IN THEIR HEART. HIS PEACE REIGNS SUPREME. THEY FOLLOW HIS TEACHINGS OBIDIENTLY. FALSE TEACHERS DO NOT AND MIX WORLDLY TEACHINGS WITH GODLY ONES.
My heart is filled with so much of his heavenly peace that it overflows with heavenly love. I feel so loved and cherished. NO ONE AND NOTHING CAN EVER HURT ME AGAIN! Now, I am at peace with everything and everyone in my life. I can even forgive and bless my enemies! If you haven't already, I encourage you to invite him! He is knocking at the door of your heart waiting for you to open it so he can embrace you with Heavenly Love! JESUS SAID keep your mind on him and he will keep you in perfect heavenly peace. I am now centered, grounded and balanced in Heavenly Peace. NO ONE AND NOTHING WILL HARM YOU WHEN JESUS IS IN YOUR HEART.

Grace for Purpose ua-cam.com/video/c-ofn60a3-k/v-deo.html
The True Proghet on UA-cam-Ken Harris,,,GOD'S messenger is here with GOD'S message!!!
Many are called, but few are chosen. If being chosen means salvation and being called means an invitation to salvation, as the parable suggests, then it therefore cannot be the case that everyone who is called is compelled to be chosen, IE that everyone who God wants to be saved is compelled to believe in Him. This is because more people are called by God to salvation than are chosen by Him. The chosen are chosen because they respond to God's calling. This conclusion is inescapable with anyone who wants to be honest with the text, and it fits nicely with other parts of scripture that state God is not willing that any should perish, that God desires all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth, etc. God calls all, but He only chooses those who willingly respond to His calling. God wants everyone to be saved, but He only saves those who willingly put their faith in Him.
How do you know if you are really called or your just deceiving yourself? Believing dosen't matter because the devil believes.I think alot of people are in real danger of eternal punishment thinking they are good with God.
Seek a deeper relationship with God. Doubt is from the devil. God is not a God of confusion, ask and you shall receive.
Faith without works is dead
I think this time we’re going through right now chosen ones are getting called.
Another scripture that supports this theory of called vs. chosen is Timothy 2:20
It reads:
“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.”
2 Timothy 2:20-21 NIV
It talks of different kinds of people. By cleansing ourselves and becoming more like Jesus he is able to use us for greater things. But we can choose to be used for common things and in some translations common is interchangeable with “dishonorable” things.
So yes, many are called, but to be chosen means to be a special instrument used for great things. But you became special by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior and allowing him to transform our lives. That’s the glory He is looking for as a demonstration of his power.
thank you for this insight
Chosen is ALL KNOWING… Called is finding the way through direction
I think it mean some people are predestined and some have a choice. I think the one that is chosen are good people. They been chosen since the day they were born.
Called linked to 2 Timothy 1:9, which states, 'Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began!' This calling is done by God, and God alone without any help form humans.
Chosen: Out of many that are called, only a few of those people are chosen, and those that are chosen are those who not only believe the gospel, but have repented, entered into the kingdom of God, baptized, and continue to carry on the gospel of Christ, as well as the continuation to follow Christ, to seek Him, strive to 'do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God.'
May God open your eyes to the truth!

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9 NIV
*I always thought of being chosen by God (before He created me in my Mother's womb) was the same as a call from God to Follow Him.
I think this Scripture means God calls us to follow Him. But, few accept that call. And, the ones who actually Follow Jesus are the chosen ones because not all the world will answer to the invitation to live for Christ...
The Pastor is correct. He could have explained it a little better.
You cannot know the MEANING of a passage unless/until you know
the CONTEXT. In Matthew, those who would not come represents the Jews. Therefore the Gospel "call" goes into the world (both Jew and Gentile)
through the "call" of the Christian Gospel.
--------------
Mat 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken
from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
--------------
Many are called (called by the Christian Gospel)
but few are chosen (chosen or elected to be saved)
---------------
Remember, in Matthew 13, the Lord explains that the
(3rd) Christian "Kingdom of Heaven" (the church) consists
of both many unsaved "tares" (sown by Satan) destined to eternal torment
and relatively few saved "wheat" (sown by God) destined to eternal life.
----------------
Context means everything

You are Chosen to represent Jesus on Earth until He returns.
In His place, you show the fallen His Grace.
God desires that NONE would perish, but all would come to Repentence.
All means all.
Is that IMPORTANT to you?
Why are you trying to play Bible verses off against each other?
The 2 are right
Food for thought: there are two new testament covenants - 1st is Born again: sealed with the Holy Spirit: the chosen (John 3 v 3) or you won't enter the kingdom of heaven. - 2nd is Salvation: saved by grace: Romans 10 v 9-10) and grafted in (Romans 11 v 21).
If you are chosen (sealed with the Holy Spirit) you are born again. If you are called (saved by grace) you can be cut off, because if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you.
If God chooses you, His Will, will be done. If God calls you, it's your will, that will be done. Stay strong in faith and follow your calling 🙏

Thank you very much for the understanding Chosen One
If we’re called and we show up, why wouldn’t we be chosen?
Most don't answer the call
Pastors will be held to a high standard. God help you who count evil for good.
Hi, I’m one of the chosen ones ,as I have researched all that is happening to me, I have a vid to tell ya what I see 24/7 since 12/21/20 when I was super upgraded. I don’t know of anyone who sees what I can see at will
Numbers ?
Called chosen it's the same thing...all I know is Mr name is written in heaven..amen
The True Proghet on UA-cam-Ken Harris,,,GOD'S messenger is here with GOD'S message!!! Than who or what on earth is to prove I'm not???
Ron Lee got it! The Called are everyone. Everyone is Called. However, the Chosen are people that were chosen to do God's work.
Noah was Chosen, Judas Iscariot was chosen, the Scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees, who lied about Christ were chosen,; David, Abraham, Moses were Chosen. They had to do what they were chosen to do.
He said He would draw all men unto Him. And no man comes to the Father but the Spirit draw him. I believe all are given the opportunity to answer the call. Not everyone does.
I do get it he explains in in depth which can lose your understanding. Read this in Bible and then go back to listen to this twice if you need to. It really does make sense.
