Articles begins with the homiletical situation of the churches in Korea. Preaching in Korea has a tendency to reject the world without eschatological vision of its recreation or to embrace the given world without challenging its sinfulness. What is left naked, beaten, abandoned, and forgotten as a victim by these two edged homiletical polemics is nothing other than this world itself, the only prospective beneficiary of divine economy of salvation. Is there any homiletical languages to awake and challenge this world to envision its promised future, the Kingdom of God? What would be the nature of homiletical language if it is to engage this world and Christians fully to the eschatological vision of Kingdom of God? What kind of hermeneutical frame would be proper to this task? Articles seeks to get some homiletical implications from these questions while attempting to trace Paul Ricoeur's perception of the nature of homiletical languages (metaphor, symbol, poetic), of the interpretation process(mimesis).
