Then Paul, knowing that some of them were Sadducees and the others Pharisees, called out in the Sanhedrin, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. It is because of my hope in the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.”

Then Paul called one of the centurions and said, “Take this young man to the commander; he has something to tell him.”

Then he called two of his centurions and said, “Prepare two hundred soldiers, seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen to go to Caesarea in the third hour of the night.

When Paul had been called in, Tertullus opened the prosecution: “Because of you, we have enjoyed a lasting peace, and your foresight has brought improvements to this nation.

…unless it was this one thing I called out as I stood in their presence: ‘It is concerning the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you today.’”

After we had moved along the coast with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.

But it was not long before a cyclone called the Northeaster swept down across the island.

After three days, he called together the leaders of the Jews. When they had gathered, he said to them, “Brothers, although I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, I was taken prisoner in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans.

So for this reason I have called to see you and speak with you. It is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”

Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God—

And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.

And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose.

And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified.

And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified.

…including us, whom He has called not only from the Jews, but also from the Gentiles?

…and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”

Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

God, who has called you into fellowship with His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.

…but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

But if the unbeliever leaves, let him go. The believing brother or sister is not bound in such cases. God has called you to live in peace.

Regardless, each one should lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him and to which God has called him. This is what I prescribe in all the churches.

Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man still uncircumcised when called? He should not be circumcised.

Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man still uncircumcised when called? He should not be circumcised.

Each one should remain in the situation he was in when he was called.

Were you a slave when you were called? Do not let it concern you—but if you can gain your freedom, take the opportunity.

For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord’s freedman. Conversely, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ’s slave.

For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord’s freedman. Conversely, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ’s slave.

Brothers, each one should remain in the situation he was in when God called him.

But if an unbeliever or uninstructed person comes in while everyone is prophesying, he will be convicted and called to account by all,

For I am the least of the apostles and am unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

I am amazed how quickly you are deserting the One who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—

But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by His grace, was pleased

For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Rather, serve one another in love.

Therefore remember that formerly you who are Gentiles in the flesh and called uncircumcised by the so-called circumcision (that done in the body by human hands)—

There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;

There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, for to this you were called as members of one body. And be thankful.

Jesus, who is called Justus, also sends greetings. These are the only Jews among my fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.

For God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness.

To this He called you through our gospel, so that you may share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession before many witnesses.

He has saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works, but by His own purpose and by the grace He granted us in Christ Jesus before time began.

But exhort one another daily, as long as it is called today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.

No one takes this honor upon himself; he must be called by God, just as Aaron was.

So also Christ did not take upon Himself the glory of becoming a high priest, but He was called by the One who said to Him: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.”

A tabernacle was prepared. In its first room were the lampstand, the table, and the consecrated bread. This was called the Holy Place.

Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place,

Therefore Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.

By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, without knowing where he was going.

Instead, they were longing for a better country, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

By faith Moses, when he was grown, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter.

Are they not the ones who blaspheme the noble name by which you have been called?

And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called a friend of God.

But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do,

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, to proclaim the virtues of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.

For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in His footsteps:

…just as Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord. And you are her children if you do what is right and refuse to give way to fear.

Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.

And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore you, secure you, strengthen you, and establish you.

His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.

Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.

Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, To those who are called, loved by God the Father, and kept in Jesus Christ:

And I saw another angel ascending from the east, with the seal of the living God. And he called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea:

Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city—figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where their Lord was also crucified.

Then the seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and loud voices called out in heaven: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever.”

And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Still another angel, with authority over the fire, came from the altar and called out in a loud voice to the angel with the sharp sickle, “Swing your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the vine of the earth, because its grapes are ripe.”

And they assembled the kings in the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.

They will make war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will triumph over them, because He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and He will be accompanied by His called and chosen and faithful ones.”

And a second time they called out: “Hallelujah! Her smoke rises forever and ever.”

Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called Faithful and True. With righteousness He judges and wages war.
