There’s a difference between being called and being commanded.  When a police officer asks you to do something, when he is calling you to do something what does he say, “Can you come here, can you answer a few questions?”  There is a call and you have a choice whether or not to answer.  Then there is a command that comes forth, there is an affliction in the voice and you know they are commanding you to do something where you don’t have a choice.

Even now as we are in this world, Jesus Christ is sending out a call to the nations.  He is sending out a call to you and to me and we have a choice whether or not to answer.  But one day that call will be gone.  One day that call will no longer be here, and the command will come forth.  The command will say stand before me and it will command all man to bend a knee and confess with their mouth that Jesus Christ is King!
