Guardians Of Ancora Bible Plan: Jesus And The FishermenSample
JESUS DOES IT AGAIN
OK, so this time it was fish. In large quantities. In very large quantities indeed. Fish everywhere, when a few hours earlier there had been nothing. Nothing at all!
What would Jesus do next? He was simply amazing and his power must come from God, mustn’t it? How else could it be explained? It was a miracle. Pure and simple. No tricks, no sleight of hand, no mirrors, no smoke, no magic – no, sir!
Just a loving, miraculous, brilliantly timed act of God, through his Son, Jesus, and by the power of the Holy Spirit. That’s all it took – the Trinity, in action, in fishing nets. Wow!
