Actually there are two things God is calling us to do as Christians
1. Spread the Gospel Also called the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:15-16)
First you must decide if you want to do mission work or support a missionary. Next you must have or provide funding for this endeavor. Next you must select a country or region to go to or send the missionary. Then you must train the missionary in the ways of the region and more importantly how to effectively preach and teach the Gospel. And then provide transportation and communication for the endeavor. Last but not least you must send the missionary or your self on to the place you have selected.
2. Worship God in Spirit and truth (John 24:23-25)
The first thing is to decide if you want to worship God using mens traditions or just the Bible. Next you need to find the church that does things by the Bible only and not mens traditions because mens traditions void God's Word (Matthew 15:1-9, Mark 7:1-10, Colossians 2:8). Finally you must be willing to study diligently like the Bereans did (Acts 17:11).
God Bless,
Chris

The hardest part, and it would be impossible without God's help, is leaving the things of this world behind. The fleshly desires can be strong and some worldly pleasures are fun. But we need to die to ourselves to serve God.
This is not to say, we can never have fun, but we need to serve God first, so maybe God will ask you to give up some things.

First of all, you have to just do it...everyone is different but all have an important purpose...you can't try to get people's opinion here, you have to pray and read the bible to get knowledge...start in Proverbs and when you'e done, God will let you know what to read next

God is calling us to learn to LOVE according to his perfect love
one reaon is because HIs words states "by love and kindness have I drawn thee" through personal experience I can tell you that I was drawn by perfect LOVE not only was I drawn but this perfect that he revealed to me------- caused me to break out in full time chase for such LOVE to remain active in my life!
The same love that drew me KEPT me! and as a witness in christ----and as a former lost soul----i know that the lost need not only be drawn but KEPT!

To enlighten those that dont know or dont believe in Jesus that He's waiting and wanting them to accept Him into their hearts so that they would have eternal life.

the call of the Guru masked as 'god' is always out there
question is, who will let another person rule them using the idea of 'god'?
