More on Gods role in Salvation

I MIGHT HAVE A Job and maybe not. I am not going to say where we do that later. I went out and looked hard today had a interview and it went well. I want to work asap but like I say it needs to be in the Lord time and his plan. I love to work on the computer and I want to do the lords plan and his will.

I want to keep looking at the topic Gods role in Salvation. It is one of the hardest things to prove and good Christians differ yet I think it needs said and I am not backing of this topic. God picks people to get salvation and he leads some out of the will of God. God choose and the truth is somehow the call of God and the truth that I have to choose Jesus as my king Here is a few verses on the call of God.

1 Thess 0 sYou are witnesses, and God also, thow devoutly and justly and blamelessly we behaved ourselves among you who believe; 11 as you know how we exhorted, and comforted, and 3charged every one of you, as a father does his own children, 12 uthat you would walk worthy of God vwho calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
Note the third verse and note that word calls you into his glory. The word call is to appoint we are told that we are to behave in the light of the call of God. We are to walk worthy of the call the Lord made to us to walk into the kingdom. But know we are given the kingdom
13 But we are 6bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God tfrom the beginning uchose you for salvation vthrough 7sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth, 14 to which He called you by our gospel, for wthe obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.[1]
God called me to the gospel. Note that since the beginning I am choose for salvation and Jesus picked us. He did in the sanctification of the spirit. Note the reason and that is the glory of the Lord and not for your glory, Jesus gets all the Glory in salvation. But you’re chosen in the beginning.
1 Tim 8 iTherefore do not be ashamed of jthe testimony of our Lord, nor of me kHis prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, 9 who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, lnot according to our works, but maccording to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus nbefore time began, [2]
He saved us into a holy call and it is not of works ever. We are saved by grace for his purpose. And we were saved before time began. He picked you before you were ever made.
