User:Bearian/Call narrative

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Call narratives are stories of when prophets are given a misson by God. They often follow these guidelines in the Bible:

1) a situation of distress or crisis in which God confronts the person

2) the commissioning of the person for some action or message

3) objections raised by the person in the form of inadequacy for the task

4) assurance of God’s help, often in the formula "I will be with you"

5) a sign to confirm the commission, often with the content of the commission
