An Alternative Pneumatological Epistemology and Its Praxis in a Text-Driven Preaching Based on the Speech Act Theory (SAT)

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This article offers an alternative pneumatological epistemology of the movement from text to sermon based on the SAT. The preacher can proclaim the text according to the linguistic action of the Holy Spirit and His indwelling force in the biblical text. The Holy Spirit is the enabler of a continuous and revealed biblical illocutionary force in the text in which a text-driven preaching becomes available in the preached text. This pneumatological logic suggests a homiletical solution that “bridges the gap” in terms of the so-called “problematic distinction” between what the biblical text “originally meant” and what it “means today.” It is argued that the continuous pneumatological illocutionary force and the homiletical role of the Holy Spirit can reform or renew our view of true text-driving preaching. Therefore, this article revisits the pneumatological linguistic logic and its role in the movement from text to sermon in order to describe an alternative pneumatological epistemology as well as its homiletical praxis.
