Sea Of Galilee

Fishers of Men Matthew 4:18-20, “And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left the nets, and followed him.” The invitation for fishermen. The preparation of fishermen.

Matthew 28:18ff To Peter and John He said, “Follow me and I will make you to become fishers of men.” Mark 1:17

Preparation Jesus “appointed twelve, to be with him, and to be sent out to preach” Mark 3:14 They were to be with him. cf. Acts 4:13 Learning necessary. Matthew 11:28 Prayer and commitment necessary. cf. Matthew 22:37 False notions. Must master the ability to speak smoothly. cf. John 1:40-42 Must master the Bible. cf. Hebrews 5:11-12 Can I teach others about Jesus if I don’t know Him? 1 John 2:3-4 Can I convert others if I am not converted?

Personal Qualities Patience. Hebrews 10:35-36; Galatians 6:9; Colossians 1:10-11 Selective. John 16:12 Persistent. Acts 3:12; 4:8; 5:30; Acts 14:19-22 Courageous. World can be troublesome. Acts 17:6 Before Jewish court. cf. Acts 4:7-12; 5:28-32; Acts 6:7 Paul before governors. Acts 24; 25; 26 Persecutor. 1 Timothy 1:12-13 Publicans and harlots. Matthew 21:31; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

Personal Qualities Industrious. Luke 15 Alert. John 4

Romans 1:16; 1 Corinthians 1:21; John 20:30-31; John 12:48; Acts 20:20, 26 “Unsearchable riches.” Ephesians 3:8 The power of love to bring them together. God loves the sinner. John 3:16; Romans 5:8; cf. 2 Corinthians 5:11 1 Corinthians 15:10, “I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.”
