사도행전에 나타난 성령과 화해와 일치

Holy Spirit, Reconciliation, and Unity in the Book of Acts

This paper firstly recalls the pictures of the reconciliation and unity in the 1907 PyengYang Great Revival, understanding them as the result of the work of the Holy Spirit. Through the statements of historians, above all, it observes briefly the pictures of the repentance, reconciliation and unity which had been happened through the work of the Holy Spirit during the 1907 PyengYang Great Revival Movement: between the upper class('Yangban') and low class('Sangnom'); between the foreign missionaries and native believers; between the women and the men; between the believers; and etc. To have a biblical pattern for the true revival, then, it observes the pictures of the reconciliation and unity through the great work of the Holy Spirit in Acts on the basis of the fact that the pattern of Holy Spirit-repentance-reconciliation-unity is not only that of the Great Revival of 1907 but also what would have been happened wherever the Holy Spirit worked. The First Chapter deals with the Holy Spirit and revival in Acts as well as in the 1907 PyengYang Great Revival. The Second Chapter deals with the picture of the Holy Spirit of reconciliation and unity in Acts: in Acts 1:8; Acts 2; Acts 3-6; Acts 8:14-17; Acts 10-11. This paper, especially, shows the picture of the reconciliation and unity in Acts as the great work of the Holy Spirit of the Pentecost, which means the eschatological restoration of Israel('the whole house of Israel'[Acts 2:36]). In the view of the eschatological restoration of Israel, it is said that the picture of the reconciliation and unity in Acts is the soteriological, ecclesiological, and missiological ministry of the Holy Spirit. Consequently, this paper encourages us to have a biblical foundation for the true revival with the reconciliation and unity through the work of the Holy Spirit in our churches as well as in our society.
