Introduction

A fisherman is a man who catches fish, usually via a net or by a hook and line. Either way, the fish are snared, being swept unawares into a net they did not see, or having been lured by bait deliberately dangled in front of them.

These fish then die of asphyxiation, their heads and tails are cut off and discarded, their bodies sliced open to remove the internal organs and bones, and finally their flesh is cooked and eaten.

Thus are these fish destroyed; swimming around in the water one minute and gone the next, without ever having comprehended or sensed what it was that overpowered and slaughtered them.

The fishermen are thereby being paid to starve fish of oxygen for the consumer's pleasure.

Now consider the following statement: "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." (4:19b, KJV.)

If a fisherman is instrumental in the death and destruction of fish, then a "fisher of men" would be any 'Christian' leader, whether religious, political or military, who was instrumental in the death and destruction of human beings. However, a human being is fundamentally a spiritual creature and so equating a "fisher of men" with a fisherman must signify that the author of those words is likening the spiritual plight of men and women to the physical ensnarement and demise of the fish. The physical bodies of the fish are deprived of oxygen and the spirits of 'Christians' are starved of knowledge of God. If the fish or the 'Christian' remains in this state for too long, the end result is the same.

Why would 'Jesus', a proclaimer of God, want anyone to follow himself rather than God? And why would he want to make anyone a fisher of men? The answer is that 'Jesus' never made such a comment - these words have been attributed to the fictitious 'Jesus' by the same person or group who invented the name 'Jesus' and who made him out to be a Jew. The Christ is not a man, but an anointed spirit. Such a spirit is resurrected into the same physical body where it previously died to the Earth.

Furthermore, just as a physical creature can crave for and feed off pieces of dead meat, so a spirit creature can crave for and feed off portions of dead spirit. Once this has been realized, the author of 4:19b is immediately perceived to be a follower of the Devil, using the age-old ploy of masquerading false scriptures as messages of light.

All is certainly not as it should be, therefore, with this first canonical gospel.
