Clean Joke of the Day

A fisherman returned to shore with a giant marlin that was bigger and heavier than he. On the way to the cleaning shed, he ran into a second fisherman who had a stringer with a dozen baby minnows.

The second fisherman looked at the marlin, then turned to the first fisherman and said, "Only caught one, eh?"

"And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.'' - Matthew 4:19

Follow me - Come after me, δευτε οπισω μου. Receive my doctrines, imitate me in my conduct - in every respect be my disciples. We may observe that most of the calls of God to man are expressed in a few solemn words, which alarm the conscience, and deeply impress the heart.

"I will make you fishers of men." Ezekiel 47:8-10, casts much light on this place, and to this prophet our Lord probably alludes. To follow Christ, and be admitted into a partnership of his ministry, is a great honor, but those only who are by himself fitted for it, God calls. Miserable are those who do not wait for this call - who presume to take the name of fishers of men, and know not how to cast the net of the Divine word, because not brought to an acquaintance with the saving power of the God who bought them. Such persons, having only their secular interest in view, study not to catch men, but to catch money: and though, for charity's sake, it may be said of a pastor of this spirit, he does not enter the sheepfold as a thief, yet he certainly lives as a hireling.

I'm glad you could join me for today's content, and I look
forward to bringing you more next time!

Until then, bye-bye!
