Dong-li Kim’s works are covered with Korean religion and conformism of destiny. This paper adopted his short stories as a motif about Jesus Christ . In “Mary’s pregnancy,” the pregnancy of the Virgin Mary is described as the mysterious super natural phenomenon. Also in “A Carpenter Joseph,” Dong-li Kim stares Jesus as Joseph’s realistic views. These two stories show the men who accept destiny. In “The Cross of Saban,” Saban proposes that he can save the Jews by defeating Rome’s army. But Jesus claims that they can be blessed by pursuing peace on heaven, not on the land. In this work, he thinks Jesus is a great shaman lives in Israel. Also in “The Resurrection,” he can’t comprehend resurrection as a flash death, that is real body. In “The Angel” shows the notion of defending humanity, he names it new humanism. As a result, the writer does not recognize the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, but he recasts the Bible story through the Spiritual Science and Shamanism. His concept of the absolute research of life is the realization of shamanism and his new humanism
