국문 초록

This essay aims to analyze four images of the Spirit in the New Testament, and consecutively to interpret their theological connotations. First, the image of wind from the Gospel of John(3:8), above all, is to be read as a symbolic representation of freedom beyond time and space. Second, the image of fire from Koke's Gospel(12:49) seeks to overturn and dismantle all kinds of this worldly human relationship innately destined, especially family lineage. Another image of fire related to the image of tongue in the Acts(2:1-4) is brought forth to highlight the way in which human unity in God's creation is restored via the empowerment of the linguistic capacity for open communication. Third, the image of dove, normally standing for mildness and innocence, illuminates Jesus' baptism as a particular event in which Jesus' pacific way of life is dramatically recapitulated. Finally, the human image of the paraclete serves the role of boundary marker by conserving and confirming the identity of the Johannine community in a critical situation. These four images of the Spirit interwined in various practical ministry settings ca reinforce their adaptability when understood in intertextual relationship.
