Speaker B
It's Him!
Speaker A
Excuse me!
Speaker B
That's Him!
Speaker A
Simon, that's Him!
Speaker B
No time for this, Andrew.
Speaker A
Simon, it's the man John said-- He's here!
Speaker B
I know.
Speaker C
May I ask a favor? I'm teaching these people, and apparently, they're having trouble hearing me.
Speaker C
If I could stand on your boat, that would be helpful.
Speaker B
They're having trouble hearing you, huh?
Speaker A
Yes, yes.
Speaker A
Of course!
Speaker A
Please, please, stand on our boat.
Speaker C
Thank you!
Speaker B
I need to go, I'm sorry.
Speaker B
No time for this today.
Speaker C
Stay a few moments longer.
Speaker C
I have something for you.
Speaker B
For me?
Speaker B
I'm in a hurry.
Speaker C
Yes, I know.
Speaker C
Just allow me a few moments, please?
Speaker C
Simon, trust me as I have trusted you.
Speaker A
This man is the Messiah.
Speaker C
It's good to see you again, Andrew.
Speaker A
Yes.
Speaker C
I'm Jesus.
Speaker C
Thanks for this.
Speaker B
Simon.
Speaker C
In my last moments with you, I want to share another story. Can everyone hear me?
Speaker B
Well, let's thank our friends for this strong boat, huh?
Speaker C
Trust me, my yelling voice is not easy on the ears.
Speaker C
Because I am on this boat, my final parable should be about fishing, yes?
Speaker C
Simon, please hand me that net.
Speaker C
When this net is thrown into the sea, what happens, Simon?
Speaker B
Well.
Speaker B
I mean, most of the time.
Speaker B
It gathers.
Speaker C
A little louder.
Speaker B
It gathers fish.
Speaker C
Yes.
Speaker C
This net gathers fish. All kinds of fish, yes?
Speaker C
Yes.
Speaker B
All kinds of fish.
Speaker C
And the Kingdom of Heaven is like what happens next.
Speaker C
After the net is full, Simon and the others draw it to the shore, sit down, and sort out the fish.
Speaker C
The good fish go into the barrels, and the bad fish, thrown away.
Speaker C
So it will be at the end of the age. Angels will come and separate the evil from the righteous and throw them into a fiery furnace.
Speaker C
Do you understand?
Speaker C
Therefore, every scribe who has been trained for the Kingdom of Heaven, like you all are now, is like the master of a house who brings forth his treasures, both new and old.
Speaker C
You are to do the same with this knowledge.
Speaker C
These parables I tell, make sense to some, not to others.
Speaker C
Be patient.
Speaker C
That is all for today.
Speaker C
I have some business to attend to with my new friend.
Speaker C
Put that down for a catch.
Speaker B
A little farther out.
Speaker B
I don't have a quarrel with you, teacher... but we've been doing this all night. Nothing.
Speaker C
Nothing.
Speaker B
All right, at your word.
Speaker B
Unh!

Simon... I told you!

I told you!
Speaker B
I told you!
Speaker A
Whoa, Whoa! The boat! It's tilting!
Speaker A
Get out!
Speaker A
You need to get out!
Speaker B
My brother, and the Baptizer, they...
Speaker C
You are the Lamb of God, yes?
Speaker C
I am.
Speaker B
Depart from me.
Speaker B
I am a sinful man.
Speaker B
You don't know who I am, and the things I've done.
Speaker C
Don't be afraid, Simon.
Speaker B
I'm sorry.
Speaker B
We've waited for You for so long. We've believed, but my faith, I'm sorry.
Speaker C
Lift up your head, fisherman.
Speaker B
What do you want from me?
Speaker B
Anything You ask, I will do.
Speaker C
Follow me.
Speaker C
I will.
Speaker A
Rabbi.
Speaker C
You as well!
Speaker C
Yes, you, James and John! Come! Follow me!
Speaker D
I'll take the fish into market and settle up Simon's debt.
Speaker D
I'll get some help to fill both of these boats.
Speaker A
Are you sure?
Speaker D
Yes, go!
Speaker A
What will you tell Eema?
Speaker D
(chuckles) You've just been called by the man we've prayed for our entire lives, and you ask me what will I say when you miss supper? Go! Now!
Speaker A
So, you're sure you don't want to do this just a few more times?
Speaker B
What? We'd make a great team on a boat.
Speaker A
Simon.
Speaker C
Joking.
Speaker C
Fish are nothing.
Speaker C
You have much bigger things ahead of you, Simon, son of Jonah. Did you understand that parable I told earlier?
Speaker C
From now on, I will make you fishers of men. And you are to gather as many as possible, all kinds. I will sort them out later.
