남북갈등 해소를 통한 북한선교 방안: 남북왕조의 갈등을 중심으로

Abstract

Through this article, I can conclude as follows. First, for the two Koreas, to become one in the gospel, we must try to find and maintain each other's identity for reunification. Although the southern and northern kingdoms were divided, they developed historically with religious and political similarities. The same is true of the negative aspects. The religious homogeneity of calf worship has been constantly shown by kings from divided countries since they inherited the possibility from David. As the desperate situation continued, God sent prophets to proclaim God's message based on the Torah. The message of judgment and recovery from the prophets was part of the homogeneity that both countries had. This homogeneity has continued to lead to captivity, and has helped them stay afloat during captivity. So, the two Koreas should not seek to find differences, criticize, or deal aggressively with each other, but maintain and hold on to the similarities that only Korean people have. Second, we must develop the North-South relationship into a state of dialogue and compromise, not a state of confrontation and tension. The extreme conservatives have anti-Communist ideologies concerning Christianity. This is because the leader group who experienced the Korean War were the main forces behind Korean churches. The Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun government was ripe for 10 years between the two Koreas, but for nine years icy times begun between Lee Myung-bak to Park Geun-hye. Of course, there are various liberal reasons, but for the unification of the two Koreas and mission, the two nations must maintain a state of dialogue and reconciliation. As long as the state of dialogue and reconciliation is maintained, there is also an atmosphere to preach the gospel. Third, various mission strategies are needed. They should have a proper understanding of the North Korean society and preach the gospel in a direct and indirect manner to them. The government should provide support to North Korea through NGOs, but should not forget that the essence of the mission is to call the people to Jesus Christ and spread the gospel directly. For this, it needs to preach directly to North Korea through links to underground churches that exist in the North, and through the connection with numerous under-Christians and defectors on the border. It is also necessary to use the Korean Christian Federation as a partner for North Korean mission by making steady exchanges with the Korean Christian Federation, the only channel for negotiation. And most of all, we should believe in the victory of evangelism. If we do not give up and believe in the victory of the gospel and continue to conduct mission work in North Korea, surely God will destroy the tents of division. Then comes the day when we can overcome many differences that exist between us and join in the celebration of God as one nation. As if the two Koreas had returned as prisoners of war with their unilateral obligation after the era of prisoners of war, what God is doing must be done with the conviction that it will win, and will be a cornerstone of reconciliation for the mission to North Korea.
