摘要

本文旨在探讨在韩国开展公共神学的可能性和一些挑战。虽然在全球许多不同的环境中都可以看到活跃的公共神学话语,但保守的韩国教会和神学家(韩国基督教的主流)在很大程度上仍然对公共神学漠不关心。这是令人遗憾的,尤其是考虑到公共神学的基因贯穿于韩国基督教的整个历史。因此,本文首先探讨了韩国早期教会是如何扮演先知角色,并在基督教信仰的实践中为更广泛的社会做出贡献的。然后讨论教会在冷战时期、独裁时期和工业化时代是如何发生变化的。在这里,尤其重要的是要研究来自美国的改革宗神学,特别是 J. Gresham Machen 和 Cornelius Van Til 的神学是如何被采纳的。这对重塑韩国教会在公共生活中的角色产生了深远的影响。最后,文章敦促韩国教会积极、广泛地参与公共神学讨论,以恢复其先知的角色、信仰实践的 "双语 "方法(在教会和社会的双重语境中游刃有余),并探索改革宗传统的丰富多样性,以恢复其作为公共教会所失去的角色。

The (Im)Possibility of Doing Public Theology in Korea?
This article aims to examine the possibility and some challenges of doing public theology in Korea. While vibrant public theological discourse can be seen in many different contexts around the globe, the conservative Korean churches and theologians (which are the mainstream of Korean Christianity) remain largely indifferent to public theology. This is unfortunate, especially considering that the DNA of public theology can be seen throughout the history of Korean Christianity. As such, this article first examines how the early Korean church played a prophetic role and contributed to the wider society in the praxis of Christian faith that was socially engaged and publicly intelligible. This is then followed by a discussion on how the church was changed during the Cold War, the period of dictatorships, and the Industrialization era. It is especially important here to examine how a particular strand of Reformed theology from the United States, specifically that of J. Gresham Machen and Cornelius Van Til, was adopted. This had a profound influence on the reshaping of the role of the Korean church in public life. In conclusion, the article then urges the Korean church to engage in public theological discourse actively and extensively for the restoration of its prophetic role, its “bilingual” approach to faith praxis (navigating both contexts of the church and society), and to explore the rich diversity of the Reformed tradition, in order to recover its lost role as a public church.
