Only Jesus Christ can call a person to become a religious member of The Church of Jesus Christ of the Kingdom of Zion and a member of the Kingdom of Zion.

The Wedding Feast
Called by the Father and prepared for the Bridegroom
God the Father has called many to the wedding feast of His Son. Jesus Christ taught that those who come without the wedding garment will be cast out.
His grace is sufficient, but the Lord has established the requirements of repentance, obedience, discipleship, covenant faithfulness, and preparation. Those who presume that they may enter without being prepared will find themselves unready when He comes.
Brief History
The continuing work of God
The Lord continues His work upon the earth and calls all men and women to repent and come unto Jesus Christ. God the Father has called many to the wedding feast of His Son, but Jesus Christ taught that those who come without the wedding garment will be cast out.
The grace of Christ is sufficient, but He has established the requirements by which His people must prepare.
