It’s About the Fish
Matthew 4:18-22
Jesus was training His followers to understand that their 3-fold, primary call in this world was to:
1) Walk in a love relationship with Him
2) Reach others with the Gospel
3) Multiply their lives into others
Mathew 4:18-22
18 While walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 19And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” 20 Immediately they left their nets and followed him. 21And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them. 22Immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.
Follow Me – That’s
I will make you – That’s
Fishers of men – That’s
καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς Δεῦτε ὀπίσω μου καὶ ποιήσω ὑμᾶς ἁλιεῖς ἀνθρώπων
And He says to them, come follow after Me and I will make you fishers of men
