다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Abstract Arthur Pierson’s Eschatology and the Formation of World Christianity Yeon Seung Lee, Th.D.
Lecturer, Graduate School of Theology Seoul Theological University This essay investigates A. T. Pierson’s documents, “The Coming of the Lord: The Doctrinal Center of the Bible,” “Our Lord’s Second Coming a Motive to World Wide Evangelism,” and “The Final Consummation of All Things,” in order to examine A. T. Pierson’s stance in eschatology and its influence on the formation of world Christianity.
The findings of the probe contribute to the understanding of the relationship between eschatology of the northern hemisphere in the late nineteenth century and the theology of premillennialism prevalent in the southern hemisphere. Pierson advanced what the leading evangelicals of the late nineteenth century discovered through the Bible and Prophecy Conference held consecutively in 1878, 1886, 1895, and 1901 in an unprecedentedly collective and reasserting force. Premillennialism that places cardinal values on Christ’s holiness and imperishable human souls was professed by evangelicals of Presbyterian, Methodist, Reformed, Congregational, and Baptist churches in the late 19th century, leading to a new order of Christianity in ecumenical cooperation across denominations and for the great work of world missions, which had been for years at the heart of Pierson.

한국어 요약문본 논문은 피어선의 종말론과 세계기독교와의 연계성을 고찰하기 위하여 피어선이 19세기 말, 1878년, 1886년, 1895년, 1901년에 개최된 성경예언대회에서 발표한 논문을 분석한다. 이를 통해 피어선의 종말론은 기독교 역사에 유례없는 이들 대규모 성경예언대회의 공통적인 강조점, 곧 성서의 신적 권위, 그리스도의 가시적, 육체적 재림, 지고의 가치를 지닌 인간의 영혼, 및 그리스도 주도적 천년왕국을 반영하고 있음을 입증한다. 피어선은 무천년설이나, 후천년설, 또한 역사주의 전천년설 지지자들이 사용하는바 성경의 내용을 역사적 사건과 연결하는 성서해석방법에 거부한다. 과거나 현재의 역사적 사건을 다니엘과 계시록의 예언에 적용하는 해석을 신뢰하지 않았는데, 피어선은 성경의 구원사와 일반 세속사를 철저히 구분하기 때문이다.피어선은 인간의 전전타락을 전제로 하는 신학에 뿌리를 내리면서도 세계선교를 위한 구조를 세우는 데 주저하지 않았으며, 그리스도의 재림을 대망하면서도 교회와 학교와 문서사역을 수행했다. 피어선은성경과 선교를 그리스도의 재림과 연결한 19세기 복음주의자의 전형으로서의종말론을 제시했다.
