Christ Wonderful in the Magnetism of His Person
Isaiah 9:6-7
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given: and the government shall be on his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful…


After the battle of Antietam, when a general rode along the lines, although the soldiers were lying down exhausted, they rose with great enthusiasm and huzzaed. As Napoleon returned from his captivity, his first step on the wharf shook all the kingdoms, and two hundred and fifty thousand men joined his standard. It took three thousand troops to watch him in his exile. So there have been men of wonderful magnetism of person. But hear me while I tell you of a poor young man who came up from Nazareth to produce a thrill such as has never been excited by any other.

(T. De W. Talmage, D. D.)
