Die Orientierung der Lebensethik Bonhoeffers - nach Seiner “Ethik”

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This thesis studies the “life ethics” that Bonhoeffer thinks, focusing on the topic of “natural things” in his book “Ethics.” As Bonhoeffer researchers generally admit, It is not easy to organize his ethics and theology systematically. This is because Bonhoeffer's writings exist only as unfinished fragments, except for a few volumes. Therefore, while acknowledging these limitations, it is important for Bonhoeffer research to connect and describe the background of his life and the theological pieces that exist as fragments. The results revealed according to the method of this study are as follows. Bonhoeffer reinterpreted “the natural” through the gospel, that is, Christologically, in a unique way from the theologians at the time. However, this interpretation is not a personal and internal interpretation that simply stays in the church, but plays an active role in helping people who are threatened by Hitler's policy at the time. In a word, the “life ethics” directed by Bonhoeffer through “the natural” was a cry for the socially underprivileged in pain at the time, served, and at the same time served the function of resistance to the Hitler regime. From these results, it can be seen that Bonhoeffer still has a great lesson for the Korean church. First of all, the Korean church should grasp the themes that we have lost anew, just as Bonhoeffer took the theme of “natural things” for the socially suffering people, interpreted it anew, and served and resisted them. For example, although humanity is facing a climate crisis, there is still a lack of depth in the Korean church to harmonize creation with Christian faith and theology. Despite the efforts of theologians and ethicists, it is difficult to connect creation and faith in the field. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize the interpretation that can be seen by connecting creation and faith again. Not only this, but the way Bonhoeffer pursued still gives many inspirations and practical challenges to the Korean church today.
