FISHERS OF MEN or
THE CALLS OF A SOUL WINNER!
Dr. Miles Seaborn
Luke 5:1-11
INTRO. In this story the clear call of God to be
fishers of men - Jesus drawing from the practical to
demonstrate what he was saying. (1) You can catch
nothing on your own. (2) God will lead and direct us

- Like Praying and Reading the Bible, its something
not limited by academic training. Few preach - all

who while we were yet sinners loved us! Romans
5:7-8
II. A CALL FROM BENEATH - Luke 16:27-28
1. Men of this world simply manifest the nature
of their heart! They live like the devil because
