John 17:6-8
6 “I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word. 7 Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You. 8 For I have given to them the words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent Me.
God chose men and Jesus showed them who the Father is by words and deeds. They came to know God was with them, and so followed in obedience and with open ears and eyes. As they listened, they received faith to believe who He is and what He did for them after the resurrection. So we are called, chosen, and faithful to listen and follow our master's voice.
