Hebrews 3:1

Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways.

Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:

Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:

Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
