Matthew 4:19

17:50 by Emmanuel Quartey Gallery
According to the Gospel of St. Matthew, Jesus Christ, having begun preaching in Galilee came across two fishermen Simon Peter and Andrew. In this verse, he calls out to them:

"Follow me, I'll show you how to be fishers of Men."

The phrase "fishers of Men", which can also be found in Mark 1:17 is the most important metaphor for evangelism. In Jeremiah 16:16, it lays more emphasis on hunting down sinners for the Kingdom of Heaven.
