What is the nature of calling?

Not according to man’s wisdom. - 1 Corinthians 1:26
For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called.

The heavenly calling of God - Philippians 3:14
I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
The holy calling - 2 Timothy 1:9
who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began,

In peace - 1 Corinthians 7:15
But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has called us to peace.

Some refuse their calling - Matthew 22:3-6
and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come. Again, he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “See, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding.” ’ But they made light of it and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his business. And the rest seized his servants, treated them spitefully, and killed them.

Many are called, but few are chosen - Matthew 22:14
For many are called, but few are chosen.”

We must make our calling sure - 2 Peter 1:10
Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble;

Questions in Nehemiah

13:26
Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among many nations there was no king like him, who was beloved of his God; and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless pagan women caused even him to sin.

13:27
Should we then hear of your doing all this great evil, transgressing against our God by marrying pagan women?”
