I want to expand my knowledge as regards a crucial part of the church and it's workers (Clergyhood) as a Christian.

I've had a lot of people talk about THE CALL OF GOD and all cases I've heard seems to vary. Off course it's obvious there is an increase in misinterpretation as regards the topic which can translate to frustration and falsehood as we have everywhere today.

I understand some people are not called in divinity (spiritual experience) but study and acquire certificates to be Pastors, Evangelists, Clergy Teachers, Apostles and Prophets. But I refer to people that claim to experience the call of God from God Himself.

I've had personal testimonies of my own that are extraordinary (supernatural) happenings in which I can attribute each one of them to the grace and mercy of God. Hence, my faith is enhanced through these happenings. And I must confess I wouldn't settle for less (JESUS is Lord!). So atheists..back off!

Which brings me to the question.

How do you know God is calling you or has called you to serve Him in Spirit and in truth?
Or do you know of someone close to you that can be a yardstick of genuine call from God. I and a whole lot of people ignorant of this divine experience may benefit from your contribution in several ways. Thank you.

Please I strongly advise you to always ignore whatever kobojunkie says. He doesn't understand the Bible although he sincerely believes he does. His assertions are always full of misinterpretations. What I like about him , however, is his confidence. He confidently speaks misinformation and misinterpretations. He has absolutely no regard for God's word. Most of the time, when I read his assertions, I laugh out my heart at the degree of error in them.

He doesn't know that a blessing is a supernatural empowerment to prosper and that a curse is a supernatural empowerment to fail.

He doesn't know that all children of God are also children of Abraham by faith.

He doesn't know that until Jesus died and shed his blood for the redemption of the world, nobody got redeemed and nobody got born again.

And many more...Like I do, just ignore his posts. Don't even waste your valuable time reading them.



Away from that and now to the op.
Your thread was not well captioned.

God calls people to be apostles, prophets, teachers, and evangelists; but God doesn't have to necessarily call a person before the person can be a pastor. A person can be appointed into the office of a pastor.

1 1 Timothy 3:1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.

The Greek word translated bishop there is the word episkope which means overseer ( or overseership) which in the context it was used means pastor.

Simply put a person can desire to be a pastor and work towards it. It is very scriptural.

You need to separate a calling from an office. There is the office of a pastor, teacher, prophet, evangelist and an apostle; and there is the divine call to be a pastor, prophet, teacher, evangelist and apostle.

Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

If a person is divinely called to be a pastor, prophet, teacher, evangelist and an apostle; it is his destiny to occupy the associated office.

As I said earlier, even if you are not called to be a pastor, you can desire the office of a pastor and work towards it which can lead to you being appointed into the office of a pastor. That then makes you a pastor.

So, there is a pastor by divine call and there is a pastor by appointment.


Your thread should have been captioned,"Share your experience on God calling you into ministry" instead.

I see you have found for yourself a buddy in another who is also wrapped up in the delusions of men. Goodluck!

Your prayers are meaningless by the way, this since, Jesus Christ said it is those who continuously submit to and obey Him that reap the benefits of His New Covenant Law and Truth in the Kingdom of God.
