The Attractive Face of Jesus
Matthew 4:19
And he said to them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.


In lower human forms this magnetic attraction of man on man is not unknown. It is the orator's power. The orators of revolutions — men like Mirabeau — are full charged with it; they are like jars laden with electric fire; there is that in their words which flashes out, and stirs, sways, and rules mankind. Christ constitutes in a still higher form the great Captain's power.

(J. B. Brown, B. A.)
