[Grem] Szt. András apostol ünnepe igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

 *Friends, today’s Gospel reports the Lord’s calling of his first
disciples. What is it about this scene that is so peaceful and right?
Somehow it gets at the very heart of Jesus’ life and work, revealing what
he is about. *He comes into the world as the Second Person of the Blessed
Trinity, a representative from the community which is God—and thus his
basic purpose is to draw the world into community around him.



* “He said to them, ‘Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.’”
There is so much packed into that simple line. Notice the way that God
acts. He is direct, in your face; he does the choosing. Jesus is not
offering a doctrine, a theology, or a set of beliefs. He is offering
himself: become my disciple, apprentice to me. “And I will make you fishers
of men.” This is one of the best one-liners in Scripture. God is the
Creator, the one who makes us from nothing. And what he makes us is always
a reflection of himself: a fisher of men.*
