They Called Themselves Fisherman But They Never Fish Now it came to pass that a group existed who called themselves fishermen. And lo, there were many fish in the waters all around. In fact, the whole area was surrounded by streams and lakes filled with fish. And the fish were hungry. Week after week, month after month, and year after year, these who called themselves fishermen met in meetings and talked about their call to fish, the abundance of fish, and how they might go about fishing. Year after year they carefully defined what fishing means, defended fishing as an occupation, and declared that fishing is always to be a primary task of fishermen. Continually, they searched for new and better methods of fishing and for new and better definitions of fishing. Further they said, The fishing industry exists by fishing as fire exists by burning. They loved slogans such as Fishing is the task of every fisherman. They sponsored special meetings called Fishermens Campaigns and The Month for Fishermen to Fish. They sponsored costly nationwide and world-wide congresses to discuss fishing and to promote fishing and hear about all the ways of fishing such as the new fishing equipment, fish calls, and whether any new bait had been discovered. These fishermen built large, beautiful buildings called Fishing Headquarters. The plea was that everyone should be a fisherman and every fisherman should fish. One thing they didnt do, however: They didnt fish. In the Gospel of Mark Chapter 1 verse 17 Jesus says, And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after Me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. I got one question for you Are you Sharing Jesus?
