Jesus Begins His Ministry and Calls the First Disciples
Mark 1:14-20
14And after John was delivered, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God.15And he was saying that the time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the gospel.16And as he passed along beside the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.17And Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you become fishers of men."18And immediately they left the nets and followed him.19And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, and they were in the boat mending the nets.20And immediately he called them, and leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they followed after him.
