The Teaching Moment
The Double Call
  The double call is very important; few have received this double call. Abraham received a double call as a divine witness. Moses heard the double call at the burning bush that was not consumed. Samuel received the double call within the tabernacle, and Paul (or Saul) received the double call on the Damascus road. All these were a call of salvation, and a call for separation and service to the Almighty God.
And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here [am] I. (Genesis 22:11)
And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here [am] I. (Exodus 3:4)
And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth. (1 Samuel 3:10)
And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? (Acts 9:4)
  Each one had a calling for a specific purpose in God’s plan. There were no duplicates of Abraham and his faith. There were no duplicates of Moses and his service. There were no duplicates of Samuel and his obedience. There were no duplicates of Paul and his adversities in the faith. God chooses those who will magnify Him and not man. The double call is singular in the call, but not in divine service. Each man was to perform a specific purpose in the will of God.
  Abraham was grace and truth promised. Moses was law and truth given. Samuel was the kingdom everlasting. Paul (who was Saul) was the fulfillment of the promises of God in the heavenlies, for we have set our affections on things above and not on the earth. Abraham, Moses, Samuel and Paul were all types and shadows of the Lord Jesus Christ who was/is grace and truth, the law, and the everlasting kingdom, and in Him are all the promises of God fulfilled.
