Which term describes God's call to a specific way of life?

• A. Intercession
• B. Vocation
• C. Holiness
• D. Perpetual Virginity

Answer: (B)

Vocation is the term for God's invitation to a specific way of life. It means God calls you to a particular path or mission—such as becoming a priest, a nun or monk, getting married, or choosing a single life lived in service. Discernment helps you listen for that invitation and decide how to respond. Intercession is simply praying for others, not a path of life. Holiness is about living in a close, faithful relationship with God, but it doesn’t specify a particular way of living. Perpetual virginity refers to a vow of lifelong celibacy in certain contexts, not the general idea of a divine call to a life/path. So the best term for a God-given call to a specific way of life is vocation.
