Admin	Matthew 22:14 Posted : 10 Jun, 2011 06:33 PM Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen. What does this exactly mean? Think about it for a second.... If God is sovereign, always accomplishing what He sets out to do and knows the future, then why would God someone and not choose them? Post Reply

View Profile History	Matthew 22:14 Posted : 10 Jun, 2011 11:47 PM Lol, thanks Chevy for the honest answer few are willing to give! Remember the scripture that says many will come to Jesus and say we did this or that in your name and Jesus will say 'away from me, I never knew you' ? Well it seems that even when a person is called they can come in the wrong way, with the wrong motives. Kinda like your dog who comes only if you have a treat....lol (Reformation theology really screws this scripture up (Matt 23:14) for alot of people, as they do other scripture) Post Reply

View Profile History	Matthew 22:14 Posted : 11 Jun, 2011 09:44 AM I have heard that this was ued in a different way Two. Some have been called to go in to the minnistry and the refuse for any number of reasons. Otherwise, all christians are called to go into the minnistry but few answer the call. I have heard this verse used in this way.I am sure it could apply to other things also. Dennis Post Reply
