TRANSCRIPT

Matthew 4:18-20

Jesus saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. Then He said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." They immediately left their nets and

followed Him.

Luke 19:10I have come to seek and to save that

which was lost.

All followers of Christ are called to seek and save that which is lost!

Romans 5:12…through one man sin entered the world,

and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned

John 8:24…you will die in your sins; for if you do not

believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.

Mark 9:43If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is

better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire

that shall never be quenched

2 Thess. 1:8-9…those who do not know God, and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 These shall be punished with everlasting

destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power.

Revelation 14:11And the smoke of their torment ascends forever

and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever

receives the mark of his name.

There are more than

4 BILLIONPeople in the world today who do not

know Jesus Christ!

comes upon you; and be my witnesses

Romans 10:14How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe

in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
