Abstract

After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE many religious groups in the Judeo-Christian community engaged in processes of reform. A two-volume New Testament document, the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles, is a voice that echoes through the ages in its appeal for a restoration of Israel's story. In calling for a restoration of Israel's creation ethic, it proclaims the creator God, as the parent of all humanity; God's Son, Jesus Messiah, as the harbinger for a new beginning; and God's Holy Spirit as the agent who has always dwelled indiscriminately amongst people of faith, actively stimulating a quest for global harmony and mutual respect in the midst of political, social and religious disorder.
