We can see from the verses 17-22 in chapter 4 that since two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, and two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother heard the gospel, then they immediately left their own work and followed our Lord Jesus.
“Immediately” is here most meaningful because usually we will think about our daily food and the lust of eye at first, so that it is hard for us immediately to catch the holy grace from God and to follow the God’s will. Here shows that who wants to follow God’s steps has to strengthen his mind to give up his flesh lust. The salvation is given freely by God.
