Allegory

Matthew 4 (net fishers & net menders LEFT such things, to go RIGHT with Jesus)
The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left [their] nets, and followed him. And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

John 21 (fishers of men gone fishing: LEFT again in dark, but nothing on LEFT side)
There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples. Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing. But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No. And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.

Does this LEFT/RIGHT fishing stuff have anything to do with
Jesus saying Behold your house is LEFT, unto you desolate?

When RIGHT of LEFT/RIGHT, what is LEFT to turn back to?

But why is R of L/R only "the kingdom of heaven is at hand";
And "the kingdom of God" is "higher" of high/higher teaching,
such as lay hold on eternal life void of death = higher calling?

Does it have something to do with kingdom of heaven is leavened,
and both the old and new twelve are a dirty dozen due to
"a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump", and
Judas "also" betrayed him obviously indicates
another did (Peter did it thrice, perhaps twice)

So RIGHT standing Peter tries going LEFT again,
but finally gets it RIGHT; Yet is still not converted,
since converted isn't R of L/R, but higher of high/higher;

So Peter gets converted by reading all Paul's epistles,
which are "the gospel of Christ", not the gospel of Jesus,
for Jesus brought swordy division (unrest) = not peace (rest)
but Christ who flushed law as dung is our peace = not divided,
and Jesus had partiality to sheeple of his goats/sheep division,
but Christ is the Saviour of the world has no respect of persons,
and Jesus is seen "standing" RIGHT of (plural) God on high
but Christ notably "sitteth" RIGHT of God is one above (higher).

Yet since both false/true Christs rise, and
false Christs seduce the elect (politicians) we're
to be reconciled unto that God who can't lie nor die,
the God who upbraideth not (neither bites nor smites)
to ensure that we don't have partiality, nor hypocrisy.

Does that about sum up the allegoric mystery?

Right and left is just as you pointed out, but there is more to it then that.



Jesus said, the Son of man would come out of the east toward the west.



Jesus said, he would but the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.



Jesus said, that those right side of the gulf would find rest and those on the left side would find no rest.



Jesus said, cut off your right hand, your right foot and pluck out your right eye.

(The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body)

Being as while he spoke those words he exchange into on the sea shore. So he exchange into utilising words they could understand to lead them to comprehend they below his training could exchange into leaders of guys and placed across them to GOD. Being as those words have been spoken in basic terms to the destiny Apostles they have been meant exceedingly for them. i'm attempting to keep in mind if any the place contained in the Gospels if Jesus advised the conventional public to alter into fishers of guys or to learn new followers and that i don't have faith so. it particularly is the reason he chosen specific men to steer and practice human beings to obey GOD as to coach this sort of significant challenge over to easily all individuals could reason large confusion and divisions. Jesus knew our hearts and the character of guy for this reason he chosen specific men to maintain on his challenge.
