Soul winning #1
Fishermen

?And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.? (Mt. 4:19)

Observances:
The command??follow me?. It is in this way that we shall be made ?fishers of men?. Following Christ in three aspects: follow His lead; follow His Word; Follow His example.

1. Following His lead
a. The promptings of the Spirit will lead us.
b. Obedience is the key factor in following His lead. To ?follow? is to ?obey?
c. Follow the blood trail: follow in His footsteps.

2. Following His Word
a. Daily seeking Him in the Bible.
b. Applying its principles to our lives.

3. Following His example
a. Seek Him out in His Word.
b. Observe His actions as well as His sayings.
c. Often ?actions speak louder than words? and say things that words do not say.

The reward- ?I will make you fishers of men.? It is He that will make us what we are not. The fish have become fishers! Christ cast out the bait of the Holy Spirit and caught us, now we are made to do the same. Our harvest is souls for the glory of God. Three observances here also:

1. ?I will make you??
a. It is unnatural for us to become soul winners, this is only accomplished by Christ in us.
b. It is therefore He which wins them, but through us.
c. If we follow, we will be made ?fishers?; not ?become? fishers, but be ?made to be? fishers of men.

2. ?Fishers?
a. Fishermen must believe in fishing! Fishing is an act of faith.
b. We catch men by the Holy Spirit, in the net of God, in the name of Christ.
c. Our bait is the Word of God.

3. ?Of men?
a. Of ?mankind?. The reward, as well as the command, is for all mankind, including women.
b. All followers will be made ?fishers?, regardless of age or gender.
