    The Holy Spirit: The Heart of Jesus' Mission In The Gospel of Luke
    (Tangaza University College, 1998-02) Icapele, Amandus
    In this essay I have tried to trace the influence of the Holy Spirit in the significant points of Jesus' life as the one sent by God in the Spirit to bring salvation to mankind. I have shown that it is through the Holy Spirit that Jesus is born, baptised and receives his mission. The same Holy Spirit guides him throughout his 'Way' from Nazareth where he began his public ministry to Jerusalem where the major events in our salvation history took place, that is passion, death, resurrection and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I have also tried to show that, the mission of the Church is a continuation of what Jesus had started at Nazareth which is to preach good news to the poor. That to be actively involved in the concrete life of the people, in their Spiritual, Social, Political, and Economic struggles is part and parcel of the mission of the Church today.
