MAITLAND, FL— The new book by L.B. Yates, Behold the Man ...made a little lower than the angels, ($13.99, paperback, 9781498411844; $6.99, e-book, 9781498411851) is about the total humanity of Jesus, and how that gives mankind hope for fulfilling His ministry through us. The author reminds readers that Jesus took on human form on the earth, which stripped Him of His omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotence for a season. The Scriptures reveal this truth as well, making mention that Jesus was, for a little while like us, made a little lower than the angels. The essential point that Yates makes is that today’s believers can live just as He lived, submitted to the Father, and presenting the gospel to those around them.

“Jesus exampled perfectly the way we are to live on this earth in submission to the Father and the Son,” states the author. “His words and even His deeds were the words and deeds of the Father, and likewise, we submit to the Father so that His words and deeds are said and done through us. Jesus, the man, showed us how the power comes through our submission to God.”

L.B. Yates has been a student of the Bible for over forty years. He has read through the Bible every year for the last twenty years and has found this experience of profound benefit. The author has been teaching the Bible for over twenty years, with the majority of time spent as an adult Bible fellowship teacher. Yates obtained a Bachelor’s degree from Southeastern University in human services. Mostly, the author considers himself an avid reader and “product” of many Christian teachers, such as: Chuck Swindoll, Dr. Larry Crabb, E. Stanley Jones, McArthur, McGee, Piper, Willard, and many others, including pastors and Sunday school teachers.
