Jesus Calls Four Disciples HIGHLIGHTS ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON By NEWMAN CAMPBELL (The International Uniform Lesson on the above topic for Feb. 1 Is Matt 4:18-22; Mark 1:16-20; Luke 5:1-11, the Golden Text being Mark 1:17, "Come ye after Me, and I win make you to become fishers of men.") THERE ARE two distinct ac counts of the calling of four dis ciples by Jesus, which is the story of today's lesson. . St Matthew tells us that Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two broth ers, Simon, called Peter, and An drew, casting their net into the ea. for they were fishers. "And He said unto them. Fol low Me, and I will make you fish era of men. And they straight way left their nets and followed Him." . ' Going on from that place, Jesus saw Jamca, son of Zebedee, and his brother, John, with their fa ther in their boat; and He called them, and they immediately left their father and the boat and fol lowed Him. St Mark tells the story approximately the same way, but St Luke relates that Jesus "stood by the lake of Cen nesaret, and saw two ships stand ing by the lake; but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. And He en tered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And He sat down, and taught the people out of the ship." ' When Jesus stopped speaking to the people, he told Simon to launch out into deep water and let down the nets. Simon de muriyd, saying, "Master, we have toiled all night, and have taken nothing: Nevertheless, at Thy word I will let down the net." Jesus Man of Authority We are apt to think of Jesus aa a gentle man, because He was so full of love and sympathy, but He must nave also been a man of great authority, because when He issued an order, albeit in quiet tones, He always was obeyed. So Simon let the net down into. the deep water, although it was cus tomary to fish in shallow; and also although he and his partners must have been very weary be cause they had been fishing all through the night. The result of this was that their net was so full of fish that It broke, and they beckoned to their partners who were in another ship, to come and help them. Both ships were filled with fish, so that they began to sink. Simon Peter was so overcome that he fell on his knees before the Savior, and said, "Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord." Simon realized that this was no common man, but the Lord, and a sense of his own ' unworthlness overcame him. Jesus answered him. "Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men." The other three men also were amazed at the great catch of fish, and when the ships were landed (for they did not sink, it seems) all four of the younger men followed Him. Students of the scriptures think that these four, Simon Peter, his brother Andrew, James and John, had been with Jesus soon after Hit temptation n the wilderness; that they had left Him or been sent back to their homes to re sume their occupation of fishing, so that when He came and called them they were ready to follow Him and give their lives to His work of saving souls. These four were the first of Jesus' disciples, and you know that eventually He added eight more, so He had 12 special friends who shared His labors, and when He was crucified and carried up to heaven, to carry on His work Bnd found the church. Twelve were appointed, alluding probably to the 12 tribes of Israel. At this Ume Jesus was well known throughout the Holy Land, and was much talked about. Also He had already incurred the re sentment of the priests and lead ers of the established church, who were determined that this new re ligion should not gain a foothold and take way (hair ' privileges and authority. Jesus had need, therefore, of friends about Him, not only to fight the good fight with Him. but to talk with Him, and by thlir sympathy and under standing, to help Him. It is a wonderful thing to be God's helpers. Each one of us has our own work to do, although we never had the glorious., priv ilege of being in personal contact with Jesus, If we do our part faithfully, we too can feel we are co-workers with Him, even as were these men whom He per sonally called while on earth.
