Publisher's Review
The Prince and the Pauper VS.
The King's Child
The story of a beggar who suddenly became a prince one day.
But the ending is different!
Mark Twain, a great 19th century American writer, published a work called “The Prince and the Pauper.”
It is a story about the commotion that occurs when the identities of two boys with similar appearances are switched.
Mark Twain attempts to bridge the gap between two social classes, as far apart as the sky and the ground, by switching identities between Edward and Tom, two boys from polar opposite social classes who would never have any contact in reality.
Edward, the prince, was able to see the suffering of the poor people who were oppressed from the lowest of all social classes from Tom's perspective, and Tom, who was of lowly status, experienced that the position of a king who rules and governs is by no means an easy one where one can wear nice clothes, eat delicious food, and give any order.
Their dramatic identity change ends in a commotion, and the two boys eventually find their places.
Of course, Edward is not the naive and naive king he once was, and Tom has not returned to being a mean beggar, but the prince and the beggar in the novel can never overcome the difference in their birth status.
However, the adventures of Tom, the protagonist of "The King's Child," who shares the same name as the beggar boy in Mark Twain's novel, do not end in commotion.
Tom, a beggar and the son of a thief, becomes the real king's son, the prince's brother! It's an ending even the realistically critical Mark Twain couldn't achieve! What makes it all the more dramatic is that it's a story about something that actually happened in the real world!
What it means to live as a king's child,
About Life After the Blessing of Salvation
In "The King's Child," the author uses Tom's story to symbolically show that the most revolutionary change of status in history occurred two thousand years ago.
Tom, now a prince, lives in the castle as a king's child with the prince and other king's children.
The author intentionally places this part, which seems to be the end of the story, early in the story to show that salvation is not the end of the Christian life, but the beginning.
The story of Tom becoming a prince doesn't end with just "they lived happily ever after," but rather continues with his training to shed his thief nature and learn to possess the qualities of a king.
But as Tom realizes, living as a prince is never easy.
Like Tom, who stumbled and became disappointed even though he was the king's son, we too are tempted, fall away from the love of Christ, and become despairing.
Our troubles as children of the king begin again here.
In a world that still seems to be ruled by thieves, what does it mean to live with dignity and power like a child of the King? What does it mean to live a life worthy of the King, a life victoriously exercised by the powers bestowed by God as a child of the King? How can we become like the King, proudly vanquish our enemies like a King, and live joyfully with the King's children? Tom's story of healing the world alongside the Prince shows the King's children, weary of trying to conquer the world on their own, that the life afterward, filled with spiritual growth, can be just as miraculous, beautiful, and joyful as the story of salvation.
▶ Reader Reviews
_ I was amazed throughout reading the book at how similar my situation was to mine.
It was burdensome and difficult to take care of the crew members, but just reading it is comforting!
_ As I read, I became Tom and received comfort and guidance.
As I read, I was excited to see what would happen next…
_ Tom, who had been living a life of continuous misfortune, completely changed his life to one where he could turn other people's misfortune into happiness.
A book I happened to read touched me.
Yes! Now I am the King's child!
