On a scale of 1 to 10, in your own opinion, how good of a fisher are you?
If you've led one unsaved person to Christ, consider yourself a 2 or a 3, depending on how unsaved the person actually was. i.e. If that person was simply a gullible loner who liked the idea of having something to do on Sunday, consider yourself a 2.
As a rule of thumb, 10 is Billy Graham and 1 is RBHILL.
The best fishermen gets the following prize: a rec from Jesus. There are no consolation prizes.

What about saved persons you have led away from Christ? Do they come into the calculation? I wonder how many of those RBHILL might have.

Good point, Noggles.
Let's increase the scale to include negative integers: -10 to 10.

Now that is a very interesting question and sadly one the "whackos for Jesus" crowd rarely considers.

And here's me thinking this was going to be a "How to" guide 🙂

Technically it is only God that saves. He uses Billy Graham to preach the Gospel.
Billy Graham Preaches and then the person response by his own free will to accept Christ. Any on that turns their Back on Christ is becasue the devil came and stole the joy. Read the Parable of the Seeds.

This is embarrassing. What number do you get if several people are following Jesus because of your efforts, but you no longer believe that Christianity stimulates more good than harm?
