First published in 1981, Servant and Son attempts to look simultaneously at Jesus as the subject of our four canonical Gospels, and as a figure, at times the main figure, in his own parables. The parables are understood not as fictions he created but as "stories his Father told him," revelations received from God in his capacity as a prophet. From these parables he emerges as servant of God, Son of God, and much more, anticipating in a variety of ways the Jesus of the four Gospels.
"Servant Sons and Daughters builds a biblical basis for an understanding of identity as sons and daughters of God, and seeks to emphasize that this relationship with the Father should be the foundation of all Christian service."--

Reproduction of the original: The Son of a Servant by August Strindberg
Swedish playwright and novelist August Strindberg led a remarkable life, oscillating from periods of institutionalization to an intense study of the occult and then back to working his creative magic...
The peculiar warping of Strindberg's character had its beginning in childhood and boyhood, the periods so intimately described in this volume. No one can understand Strindberg who has not read this powerful book.
The Slave Bible was published in 1807. It was commissioned on behalf of the Society for the Conversion of Negro Slaves in England.
The Servant-Son: Jesus Then and Now
This short book resolves the mystery of why Jesus chose to call himself Son of Man.
This book will walk you through the path to sonship with God and equip you with the understanding that creation groans for the manifestation of the sons of God.
