God Calls Us How and why does God call people to follow him? God calls us individually in a unique manner. God calls us to follow him and to be his witnesses and share the message of the Gospel. God has called various individuals to follow him throughout history. God continues to call people to follow him. © Elnur / Shutterstock

Mark 1:16–20 As he passed by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting their nets into the sea; they were fishermen. Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Then they abandoned their nets and followed him. He walked along a little farther and saw James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They too were in a boat mending their nets. Then he called them. So they left their father Zebedee in the boat along with the hired men and followed him. Image in public domain

Jesus Calls Whom He Wills Jesus called men to be his Apostles during his lifetime. Apostle comes from the Greek word apostolos, meaning “messenger,” especially one sent on a mission. The most notable of Jesus’ apostles are the Twelve Apostles. Jesus called many other men and women to be his disciples in the early Church. Image in public domain

The Twelve Apostles How many of the Twelve Apostles can you name? Take a moment and jot them down. Let’s see how you did. The following are names of the Twelve Apostles. Add the ones you missed. Simon (Peter) Andrew James, the son of Zebedee John Jude Thaddaeus Philip Bartholomew Thomas Matthew James, the son of Alphaeus Simon the Zealot Judas Image in public domain

Characteristics of the Apostles Jesus chose people who had certain characteristics to be his Apostles. These characteristics were very similar to those possessed by early leaders of Israel: judges, kings, and prophets. Some of these characteristics are: –They were obedient to God’s will. –They understood the need and purpose for divine justice. –They were committed to ethical responsibility. –They were men and women who committed themselves to God and were willing to be his voice among the people. Image in public domain

On The Job Training Jesus provided the training necessary for following him and speaking on his behalf through the following actions: He taught the Apostles both publicly and privately over three years. He performed miracles in front of the Apostles. He demonstrated through actions how the Apostles should act and treat one another. He told the Apostles to share his message with the entire world. Images in public domain

Review God calls people to follow him and invites them to share his mission of spreading the message of the Gospel. Jesus called twelve men to follow him as Apostles, and later called other men and women in the early Church to share in the same mission. The people called to be Apostles possessed certain characteristics that were seen in the early leaders of Israel. Jesus provided training for the Apostles by living with them and setting an example for them.
