Matthew 22:14, "For many are called, but few are chosen."

To be chosen is to accept the invitation and do what is necessary to accept the invitation: giving up everything in this world. (Luke 9:23-24; Luke 14:26) That is, to say “Yes!” to the calling and then to follow it up with a faithful disciple's life. God calls us, but those who are chosen wholeheartedly accept the invitation and conditions.

To be chosen, you have to show that you really want a life with Christ with all of your heart, mind, soul, and strength. You can’t hold a little back for the world, for relationships, for your self-seeking, etc. It’s 100% obedience to Jesus; 100% faithfulness.
