Question

The Christian idea of vocation (or calling) is born out of the conceptualization of humanity placed within the world. For example, in Genesis 2:15, Adam was given the responsibility of working in and watching over the sacred space God had given him.
True or false?

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The idea of Vocation is central to the Christian belief that God has chosen a person specifically for a task. He has assigned a duty that he has to conform with. Hence, he is elected, trained and qualified to be the chosen person to perform that specific job.

Vocation is related to the divine call to serve humanity through lifelong commitments. It has to be followed under all circumstances to maintain the order in God's world.

Example: Adam was placed in the Eden Garden to "work it and keep it" (Genesis 2).
