2 | Difference between called and chosen? | Matt 22:14 | ischus | 115212 | ||
Edd, The difference here is one of the heart. Whereas God "calls" everyone to himself, the people must also respond to and live in the proper way, which makes them "chosen." 1 Pet.2:9 sets forth this same principle: the people were called out of darkness by God, and now that they have responded they are chosen people. Col. 3:12-14 illustrates the principle of "chosenness" further, as Paul describes the may in which a chosen one lives in relation to others. God Bless! ischus |
