The Bible in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz)
Messianic Checkpoint: The Gospel of John (2025)

Thank you, John, because that story would have been incomplete without that number. 153 fish. And although there were so many, the net was not torn. Yes, you're right. Numbers mean something to the Jewish people. And in the Hebrew language, there actually is not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. They actually use the alphabet to depict the numbers. And so every letter has a numerical value.

And when you put the phrase, I am God, In Hebrew, it comes up to the equivalent of 153. And that is an amazing revelation. And I guess you could call it a Hebraic type of teaching where John is showing you that there was 153 fish. Let's see, 153, what would that mean? Oh, I'm God. I thought something was fishy. Yeah.

He was the first pope, and he did not serve the Lord the way he was supposed to, and he actually went back to fishing. That's what he's doing up in Galilee, and Jesus... Jesus says, no, you still have that calling on your life. And that's where he reveals the 153 fish, which is in Hebrew, Ani Elohim. Ani Elohim, I am God. Ani is 61. Elohim is 92 for a total of 153.

And I think that that is showing us that God is still God even after we've blown it. And maybe people reading with you during this time feel like, you know, I just haven't been the servant of God or the husband or the son that I should have been. Well, this is the book where you have a chance to begin afresh. And Jesus says to you, come follow me.

Yes, absolutely. Right in the middle of the gospel of John, you have John chapter 7 and John chapter 8. And it's the story of the woman caught in adultery and the leadership wants to stone her and they are shaming her and she is broken and publicly shamed. And it's in that amazing story that the Lord releases her from that shame and brings her to himself.

And so I would really encourage people, whatever shame in your life, it doesn't have to be what this lady committed. It can be shame in your town, shame in your family, shame for something you said, shame for something you did in college, whatever it might be. I want you to know that Jesus is not going to hold you to that shame the rest of your life, but he is going to release you because he can.
