What Does it Mean to Be Chosen By God
A person who is chosen by God has sensed God’s call on his or her life and decided to respond by following God.

God’s call takes many forms.

For some people, it is an urgent sense of needing to turn away from sinful living and turn toward Jesus. For others, it is more subtle and includes a deep desire for a closer relationship with God or even curiosity about God.

According to John’s Gospel, anyone who receives Jesus as Lord and Savior and believes in his name is chosen by God and becomes God’s child:

“But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12, ESV).
