Sunday School Lesson
JESUS CALLS HIS DISCIPLES
Having won complete victory over Satan, who had
assailed Him with all the temptations of the physical
senses, and having begun His public ministry, Christ was
ready to call disciples to work with Him and then to carry on
His work after His departure from them.
Markl:lO20 -'
As Christ walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two
brothers, Simon and Andrew, who were fishing and mend
ing nets. He said, "Come ye after me." He challenged them
to leave their fishing business, their loved ones and the in
terests with which they were surrounded in order to work
' with Him. : . .
When Christ called men to His work, He did not call
learned men from the rabbinical school, but humble and
busy young men from the common walks of life. The world's
outstanding soul-winners have been men of humble origin,
and often of meager training. Christ called these in
dustrious and cooperative young men to leave their secular
work to follow Him as fishers of men. He simply transferred
the special qualifications of these men from the natural to
the spiritual sphere. However, before they could become
what He wanted them to be, it was necessary for them to
follow Him and learn from Him. Growth in ability, efficien
cy, and effectiveness is guaranteed to all who will follow
Christ.
Without hesitating, these men gave up their employment,
severed home ties, and went with Christ, believing He
would supply all their needs. They responded to Christ's
call, "I will make you to become fishers of men." Anyone
who Mows Christ closely will be a fisher of men.
A successful fisher of men must live close to Christ, pray
much, study the Bible, let the Holy Spirit guide him, be tact
ful in his approach, talk with the individual alone, show him
his need of Christ, refuse to be drawn into an argument, and
depend upon the Holy Spirit to do His work.
Luke 5:4-11
Early one morning Christ preached to a large number of
people from Simon Peter's boat. Then, He told Peter to
"Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a
draught." His command was contrary to all accepted rules
of the craft Peter replied, "Master, we have toiled all the
night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I
will let down the net." That was one of the finest expres
sions of obedience to Christ that was ever recorded. It was
obedience in spite of physical exhaustion following the hard
labor of the previous night. It was obedience in the midst of
doubt concerning the remote possibility of success at
fishing when the blue waters were shimmering in the morn
ing sun. And it was obedience in spite of failure the night
before.
As soon as they cast their nets into the water, their obe
dience was richly rewarded with a catch that filled both
boatsThere is always a blessing in obeying Christ despite
adverse circumstances. Abundant success will crown the
efforts of all Christians who render obedience to Christ. To
trust and obey Him is the secret of a happy, successful, and
useful Christian life.
Peter then received a twofold vision. It was a vision of his
littleness and unworthiness. It was also a vision of Christ,
who loomed more wondrous to him than ever before.
Christ called and commissioned these fishermen to the
same kind of work. They were no longer to catch fish, but to
catch men for Christ, which was a far more worthy occupa
tion. It is the noblest work in all the world. In response to the
- command they received, the fishermen forsook all and
followed Christ Such followers are a Joy to Christ May we
also yield our lives to Christ to be used when, where, and as
He desires.
