16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
15 but as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct;
16 since it is written, "You shall be holy, for I am holy."
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
24 He who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.
14 To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
28 God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are,
29 so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.
1 I was ready to be sought by those who did not ask for me; I was ready to be found by those who did not seek me. I said, "Here am I, here am I," to a nation that did not call on my name.
9 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not in virtue of our works but in virtue of his own purpose and the grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus ages ago,
9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
38 And Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
21 For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call,
9 Do not return evil for evil or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing.
28 We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.
