A Divine Calling

Song: Come To Jesus

Scripture: Acts 11:26

"...for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians at Antioch" (Acts 11:26).

The Greek word for "called" in Acts 11:26 is the word that refers to a divine calling. The disciples were first called "Christians" at Antioch by God Himself. "Christian" is the divine title to be applied to one who is centered on Christ.

God would have you be a Christian. He would have others call you a "Christian." To be one and to be called one is the will of Heaven for you.
