    Unit 4 TBP- Acts & The Holy Spirit

    TBP - "The Holy Spirit"


    1) What words does the Old Testament use to describe God's spirit?
    The Hebrew word is Ruakh which refers to energy, wind, and breath.

    2) What do the Old Testament prophets see as the fundamental problem with the world?
    While God’s Ruakh had created a really good world, humans have given into evil.
    They’ve unleashed chaos into it through their injustice.

    m
    3) How will God solve this terrible problem?

    4) Where in the New Testament does the Holy Spirit show up?

    o.

    Today, the spirit is still hovering in dark places, pointing people to Jesus, transforming

    TBP - "ACTS 1 & 2"


    6) Summarize the book of ACTS in 3 movements using no more than 100 words to explain
    ed d

    each section:
    ar stu

    a) The opening of the book until Pentecost


    It begins with the risen King Jesus instructing His disciples about life in His kingdom
    giving them the promise of the spirit. Jesus promises them that the Spirit would be
    immerse with His presence. Jesus is then taken up and is enthroned as the son of man and
    sh is

    is exalted as king of the world.


    b) Pentecost through the conversion of Cornelius the Centurion
    Th

    The Holy Spirit come on the disciples as a great wind, and something like flames appear
    over each person’s head and they begin to speak in different languages that they didn’t
    understand. Jesus new covenant family is the new temple that was promised. Then Luke
    tells a tale of two temples. Here the disciples will gather, and peter would heal and preach
    about Jesus until he gets arrested. Jesus’ followers are selling their possessions to help the
    poor showing this as a place to see God’s generosity and healing presence. Then this leads
    to the first persecution.

    c) Paul's ministry around the Roman Empire
    Paul and his co-works travel to different cities around the Roman Empire announcing the
    good news that Jesus is King. Paul goes on three different missionary journeys. When
    Paul enters a new city, he always goes first to the Jewish synagogue to share about the
    risen king and how he is forming a new multiethnic family of God. He was opposed most
    of the time. Later Paul returns to Jerusalem and gets attacked by Jewish people. In prison
    he writes Apostolic letters. And this becomes the way his missionary legacy is carried on
    long after he dies.

    7) What was the strange paradox of Christianity that confounded the Roman empire and its
    rulers?
    The strange paradox of Christianity was that it was a Jewish messianic movement, but it
    was ethnically diverse, full of communities that treated men and women and rich and
    poor and slave and free, all as equals. And they all gave their allegiance to King Jesus

    m
    alone and no other god or king.
