Description
Jesus Christ is the most famous person in human history. His favorite name for himself was "the Son of Man" or the "the Human One." Rarely did his followers call him that, but it must have had great significance for him. This book describes why this name was so important and what it means for us now. Along with this favorite name, this book shows how Jesus Christ fulfills human longing, but at the same time is resisted by his own followers to this day. Nevertheless, his call to follow him has sounded down the centuries and been heeded by millions. The book leads to an exploration of the Way that is found in Jesus Christ, who called himself "the Human One."

Person
Robert L. Montgomery comes from missionary heritage and also served as a missionary to Taiwan for sixteen years. The aboriginal Christian movement there sent him back to study sociology of religion in order to understand their enthusiastic response to Jesus Christ. He has written articles and books on why religions spread, but here his focus is on the person exerting the greatest universal drawing power of any person in history.
