초록

One of the most important aspects in modern missions is contextualization. Throughout ages it has been a great challenge to implant the unchanging Word of God to various contexts of this world. When this process was done appropriately, there were evident fruits. However, when it was done inadequately, it functioned as a stumbling block for missions. Particularly, if the biblical concept was contextualized for the political agenda, devastating consequences occurred. As an example, this article dealt South African political agenda, the apartheid. The paper investigated what elements of the Scripture did the Afrikaners, so-called the Calvinists, contextualized to maintain their power and status quo. The first part of the paper shared brief information about apartheids, settlers, and related research resources of the apartheid. In the middle part, the author introduced biblical concepts that the Afrikaners contextualized to justify the apartheid. The last part of this article dealt the evaluation and criticism regarding the contextualization of the apartheid.

Abstract

One of the most important aspects in modern missions is contextualization. Throughout ages it has been a great challenge to implant the unchanging Word of God to various contexts of this world. When this process was done appropriately, there were evident fruits. However, when it was done inadequately, it functioned as a stumbling block for missions. Particularly, if the biblical concept was contextualized for the political agenda, devastating consequences occurred. As an example, this article dealt South African political agenda, the apartheid. The paper investigated what elements of the Scripture did the Afrikaners, so-called the Calvinists, contextualized to maintain their power and status quo. The first part of the paper shared brief information about apartheids, settlers, and related research resources of the apartheid. In the middle part, the author introduced biblical concepts that the Afrikaners contextualized to justify the apartheid. The last part of this article dealt the evaluation and criticism regarding the contextualization of the apartheid.
