DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

F.B. Meyer emphasizes the transformative power of Christ within
believers, illustrating this through a conversation with Andrew Bonar
and young Salvation Army members who radiate God's presence. He asserts
that true faith does not require self-promotion; instead, when Christ
shines through us, others will glorify God rather than our own abilities
or eloquence. Meyer encourages ministers to seek this divine presence,
as it leads to genuine admiration for God rather than for human
achievements.

CONTENT
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some young men belonging to the Salvation Army came to old Andrew Bonar,
and they said: " Dr. Bonar, we have been" all night with God.

Can't you see our faces shine? " The old man said: "Moses wist not that
his face shone," When you have got the real article you do not need to
advertise it, the public will come for it; but the man who has got what
we call in England, Brummagem ware, a sham, must puff it.

If you have got Christ in you, people will not glorify you, they will
glorify Christ in you, and they will say: "Teach us about Christ who has
made you so fair." "They glorified God in me." Dear brother ministers,
when you get this, they will not glorify your sermons, they will not
glorify your intellect, and they will not glorify your eloquence; but
they will glorify God who shines through you as the Shekinah shone
through the temple of old.
