THAT MAN CHRIST
He lived a public life but three
and a half years, ending with a
death of shame at thirty-three, yet
today swaying a world’s history
and destiny. Simple as was His
speech, even yet his words move
and would the world. There men
insists that “Eloquence is vir-
tue, ’ ’ or as Emerson puta it, ‘ ‘ there
is no true eloquence unless there
is a man behind the speech,” or as
Carlyle adds “He’s God’s anoint-
ed King, whose simple words can
melt a million wills into HisaC’ All
the conditions of the most power*’
ful and persuasive utterance meei
in Him! Behind the speech lay
the perfect man, the divine soul;
and with, an indifference to the
lapse of time which reminds us
of the indifference of the telegraph
or wireless to the stretch of space,
at this remote day, his simple word
melts millions of wills into His.
He says “follow me!” And on
through flood and flame, over land
or sen, move the true hosts of
God’s elect, in obedience to Ilia
