Winning Men by Association with Jesus
How CAN we better learn the art of winning men than by association with Jesus? Who knows men as he knows men? We talk about Shakespeare and his knowledge of men; here is this carpenter of Nazareth, that never wrote a word save on the ground in the sand, and here in this New Testament is what the men who followed him put down some thirty or thirty-five years after he had left them, and this man thralls the great world and charms all our hearts. Does he not thoroughly understand men? And if only we could see men as he saw them, would not we fish for them better than we do? Consider and imitate his tact, and his love, and his patience, and his absorbing devotion.—Sel.
