THE CHOOSERS AND THE CHOSEN


by Zecharias E. Castro


Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you
(You are not The Choosers, But I am The Chooser)


All The Chosen have THE CHOOSER but all The Choosers are not Chosen.


The Chooser in the Bible is the title given to the one choosing to sacrifice all He has to give the greatest good. The ones willing to have the greatest good at no sacrifice to themselves can not call themselves choosers because it was The Chooser who chose to sacrifice it all for them to have the greatest good. If they insist on calling themselves choosers they are doing it to discredit, ignore, deny and rob from the Real Chooser the title and status only He should have.


If the Chooser has chosen to give us the greatest good which is His heart and mind. That means every thing else is also up for grabs.


The Chooser chose to make Creation for the purpose of revealing Himself through it. The Chooser chose to make the creatures that would inhabit his creation. The Chooser chose not to take or get anything from His creation that would add unto Himself because He is complete and whole in Himself and creation is only there for his revelation. The Chooser chose to live a life of being ignored, discredited, rejected, despised, misunderstood and even hated and killed by the creatures he had made whose existence He chose to commit Himself to uphold forever, specially those made with a soul.


The Chooser chose this for Himself because that’s the only way to show He is a God who is all goodness, kindness, tenderness, mercifulness, forgiveness and faithfulness in Himself, in spite of how creatures choose to treat Him.


The life the Chooser chose for Himself in His creation is what commends the hearts and minds of the chosen to experience for themselves this unconditional and unprovoked Love that’s found in the Chooser and which happens to be The Chooser Himself.


What’s amazing about all this is the extent to what the Chooser has to go through to secure His life in the souls of the Chosen. You would think that if the Chooser did all this to give us His heart and mind we would definitely choose to have His Heart and Mind in our souls. But that never has happened The Chooser still has to choose the ones appointed from the foundation of the world to an existence of experiencing His life.


Since The Chooser made creation for the purpose of revealing Himself, The Chooser recognizes as His own only Those with The Spirit or The Life of The Chooser. The Life of the Creator is the only valid and legal proclamation for his creatures to announce to creation forever and ever world without end.


In our sinful state we have the mind of Satan and in that mind we want all the goodies the Chooser has placed on His Creation. We want power to be recognized, we want healing, we want spiritual gifts. We want a heaven free of crime and criminals, we want a mansion in the skies with a pool and a tennis court.


But picking up goodies from the Chooser does not reveal the Life and Love of the Chooser. All things made by the Chooser reveal Him in the sense they all perish or are perishing to impart the particular benefit the Chooser put in them to give. The Sun perishes every day by giving us the sunlight The Chooser put in it to give. Trees perish every day by giving us the fruit, medicine, wood for furniture, paper, clothe and all the other benefits The Chooser put in them to give.


Where are those souls perishing everyday to give The Life of The Chooser to this generation? Had it not been for the good pleasure of the Chooser to set aside a chosen remnant from the foundations of the world for this purpose there would have been no soul as an outlet from heaven here on earth upholding the life of The Chooser for all to see.


People insisting on calling themselves choosers or decision makers in this world can only do it to choose which lie to follow. There are thousands of christs out there which are nothing but spiritual principalities using the good Name of our Lord to promote the mind and heart of Satan their leader. Those calling themselves decision makers or choosers can choose from this bunch of lying spirits. But the Chosen have been given ears to hear and eyes to see therefore they will only follow the voice of the Chooser.


Joshua is an example of the ones chosen to follow the voice of the Chooser he states this so eloquently in Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.


Once the The Chooser has you He invites you and encourages you to stay in His choice. Like he did to Adam and Eve and to the Children of Israel in Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live. Once The Boss of a company chooses to hire you he invites you to stay in the position he chose for you but you can choose to walk away. You however cannot choose to be hired.


The chosen of the Lord (i.e. The Chooser), however, are cleansed from self and therefore no matter what befalls them they are bound to worship The Chooser. The chosen are made to see that His Mind and Heart are so precious and worthy of worship in and of themselves that no matter what mishap or misfortune assails them they continue loyally to reveal and revere Him. Job is a good example of the ones chosen by The Chooser to reveal Him and revere Him in Job 13:15 he says “Though he slay(i.e. kills) me, yet will I trust in him”. To Job The Lord(the Chooser) was his goodness, his kindness, his Love and everything and he was nothing in himself without Him(i.e. The Chooser).


Since there are no two sources of life or two sources of love or two sources of truth but only one we can not make an initial and original choice for THE CHOOSER but can only make an initial and original choice to walk away from Him. But there are thousands of sinners, millions of self-appointed believers, thousands of healers, thousands of ministers who want everything from God except His heart(i.e. His way of feeling) and mind(i.e. His way of thinking) therefore The Chooser can make a choice and from time to time He brings into the fold those appointed to glory and virtue.


The cursed of the Lord(i.e. the choosers/decision makers, mocker and imitators of God) are like the cursor in most computers no matter what part of the text(the Word) the cursor is being pointed by the mouse they only see themselves(i.e.{I}) in it. They are trapped in {I} and they are loyal to {I}. Therefore when they read the scriptures the Book of The Chooser they are only looking for what they(i.e.{I}) can find and get out of it that would give them anything except the denying and doing away with themselves(the{I}) to take on the heart and mind of The Chooser.


In conclusion I end where I began


All The Chosen have THE CHOOSER but all The Choosers are not Chosen.


Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you
You are not the Choosers, But I am The Chooser
