To What Are We Called?


To enter into the light:

1 Peter 2:9

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
In order to belong to Jesus Christ:

Romans 1:6

And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

To the fellowship of Christ:

1 Corinthians 1:9

God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.

To holiness:

1 Thessalonians 4:7

For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.

To freedom:

Galatians 5:13

You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.

To his glory and virtue:

2 Peter 2:13

They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.

To eternal life:

1 Timothy 6:2

Those who have believing masters are not to show less respect for them because they are brothers. Instead, they are to serve them even better, because those who benefit from their service are believers, and dear to them. These are the things you are to teach and urge on them.
