세계 종교의 흐름 속에서 본 중국교회의 선교전략 = The Mission Strategy of the Chinese Church in the Flow of the World Religion

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Although China is considered to be one of the largest mission fields world, the Chinese Church of the future could be the main player of global mission. In this paper, I myself have designated China, particularly its western provinces as vital strategic regions for global missionary work and I have focused my research on the appropriate principles and methodologies of mission for these particular circumstances. Religions of the world are at the center of change that could significantly impact lives in relation to the political background. The missional situation northwestern China has also changed according to political changes and is even now under its influence. In these circumstances, it is important for the Church to fully comprehend the new environment generated by the Muslims and the local government’s policy towards religion and thereby apply the appropriate missionary strategies.
Campus ministry is a strategic method for the theological training of the leaders of domestic churches of northwestern China and their response to cults as well as the pioneering of additional churches. The Korean Church must form a network with these Chinese churches and coordinate strategically. Such missional work could be done in Korea as well. For instance the Church could teach Korean-born Chinese men and women Gospel who can then potentially take the Good News back to China where they could pioneer new spiritual communities. An alternative would be to invite the leaders of local Chinese churches to Korea for theological training.
If mission in China’s northwestern provinces should bear fruit, then the Gospel could potentially be spread to neighboring nations. This makes this region a gateway for the Good News to spread out to the world. The next step is to utilize the Chinese communities that are spread across the globe as potential ministry partners. Overseas Chinese churches will act as the stepping stone for the Chinese Christian community to reach out into the world and the local domestic churches will allow these communities to enter China. One thing to note is that the Northwestern provinces act as a kind of buffer zone where Western Christianity and more Oriental Muslim collide which is another reason why the region is so crucial for missionaries,
All churches are missionary communities. In other words, the Church is a community where God’s missionaries and the living Christ coexist which makes its very nature missional. Therefore, the Korean Church must be prepared to appropriately modify the current paradigms of missionary work to win China and the Chinese Church. In order for Chinese mission to be strategic and successful, we must first utilize both domestic and international fields as sites for both training and ministry.
