Gospel of Mark chapter one. The night I'd like to trade with you the way in which the master worked with a man called Peter. Peter was just about as human as any man has ever been human. He was just about as great as any man could get great. And at the same time, he was the kind of man that go on the skids every once in a while. As I said, at various times, sometimes he was hotter than a firecracker for the Lord. Other times he was colder in cold turkey. The night we want to trace this man, because it relates itself to incidents that happen some short time after the resurrection appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ, within three or four weeks after the Lord's resurrection. In this first chapter, the gospel of Mark in verse 16, to set the pattern, let us look at it. Now it Jesus walked by the Sea of Galilee, he thought Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea for they were fishers. 01:27 And Jesus said unto them, Come after me and I will make you to become fishers of men. And straightway they first took their nets, and followed Him. Jesus said, Just Peter and Andrew, his brother, follow me and I will make you to become fishers of men. You are not automatically a fisherman, to to become a fisherman, or a feature of men. This is an art, this is something you practice, this is something you develop, you are automatically an ambassador by birth, you're a witness. You're a workman, you're a soldier, you're an ambassador by what he called us to write. But now to really do the job of an ambassador, you might have a little training. 02:25 Maybe it wouldn't hurt to take the advanced class. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to take
