For though there are gods so called, whether celestial or terrestrial, (as [of this sort] there are gods many, and lords many;)

Nevertheless as God has bestowed the gift on every man as the Lord hath called every man, so let him walk, and so I give command in all the churches.

Is any man called being circumcised? let him not affect uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.

For he that is called in the Lord, being a slave, is the Lord's freed man: in like manner also, he that is called, being a free man, is the servant of Christ.

For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many fleshly wise, not many men in power, not many men of high birth, are called:

Let every one abide in the calling in which he is called.
