I. And 1t came to pass that. as tho peo-
pie pressed upon him to hear the word Of
God, He stood by the lake Of Gennesareth -
After He was expelled from Nazareth. as
we saw in last weeks lesson, He for a
time made Capernnum His center (Math.
w, 1S) that prophecy might be fulfilled
About that time Andrew and Peter, James
and John received call to follow Him
and did so fMath. IN, 1927. Among the
many sick and suffering whom He healed
In Capcrnaum were the man in the syna
goguc with an unclcan spirit and the
mother of Simon's wife. Throughout all
Calico He healed all manner Of disease.
and preached the gospel of the kingdom,
so that His fame spread everywhere (AIath.
iv, 23-25l. In the midst OF this popularity
today's lesson finds Him preaching TO the
people hungering for the word ON tho
shore of Galilec's sea. From my present
experience in Is Bihie classes, held In as
many different cities and towns, In which
/ meet from ?, 600 TO ). GOO people weekly in
NIL kinds Of weather, most earnestly ties
tify to all preachers and teachers that pco
pie still hunger for the word Of Ged. Why
should there he u famineg (Amos viii, IL,
l2,)
?. And saw two ships standing by the
lake, but the fisherman were gone out OF
them and were washing their nets" This
Is clearly different incident from that in
Math. iv, 1922. for there the men were ia
the ships, two of them casting net and
two mcnding their nets. How interesting
1t is that all we do is seen and noted, and
the Spirit thinks it worth while to record
whether these men were washing or mend
ing or casting their netsi II We would
live always as under the eye of the Lord,
what difference it might nlakel
8. And lie entered into one OF the
ships, which was Slinon's, and prayed
him that he would thrust out q little from
the land. And He sat down and taught
the people ont Of the ship" To appreciate
this fully one must remember that Ash
ing boat is not always the sweetest nor
clcancst kind OF a vessel and some Chris
tian people would consider well before
stepping into q fishing boet, even to do
people, good. Let us consider Jesus and
have more Of His spirit What He would
teach tAe people we may imagine from
His discourse with Nicodemus and the
woman Of Samaria, etc. 1t would surely
be concerning the kingdom and how TO
reach il and walk worthy of It,
4. Now, when He had left speaking
He said unto Simon, Launch out into the
deep ard let down your nets for a draft. y
He had been in figure, casting the net
