What Is the Difference Between ‘Called’ and ‘Chosen’?

Ask Pastor John
Episode: 878

[stephaniedekinger]

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 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.

It's simple. God calls. It's like the phone ringing and you do not answer. God's chosen are the one's that hear the phone ringing 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.

I love Jesus I wanna give him a hug😇🕊✝️🥰🙏🏻

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. 😊😇🤗

[deemisquadis]

Many are called, but few are chosen. I am chosen. Love everyone unconditionally and forgive all things forever. ❤

"Many are called, but few are chosen."

Some heed the call and respond appropriately, some don't.

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.

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.

God is Good all the time even in suffering😌💖

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

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❤

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.

[ohyeah]

Wow this is revelation for me ❤ praise Abba.

[gentilenation]

Easy :
Called is when you hear the good news of salvation.
Chosen is biblically hand pick before time. .

Gotta love "Pastor speak."
By the time Pastor supplies an answer to the inquiry, I've nearly forgotten the question.
Bless his ❤️ !!!

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.

[dnlcast]

It means Gods elect. The gospel goes out to the masses, but, only God's elect shall respond.

[reinettesteynberg]

GOD KNOWS THE ANSWER .... HE IS MY FATHER. I LOVE HIM. HE TAUGHT ME WHAT NO MAN COULD EVER TEACH ME.

[lindahinojosa]

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
