영문 초록

This study explores the 1910 Edinburgh conference in terms of its historical background and its effect upon the history of Christian missions. The Edinburgh conference was an epoch-making event in the course of Christian missions mainly because it distinguished between the 19th century, “Great Century” and the 20th century, “Ecumenical Movement Century”. First, Edinburgh conference was rooted in Pietism. Pietism developed from great spiritual pioneers like Johann Ardnt(1555-1621), Philip Jakob Spener(1635-1705), August Hermann Francke(1663-1727), Nikolaus Ludwig Zinzendorf, 1700-1760), and John Wesley(1703-1791). Pietism carried out world missions through conversion, translation of the Bible, contextualization, and education. In particular, Francke challenged many students to be missionaries in different countries. He sent B. Zigenbalg and H. Plutschau to India. Zinzendorf became a spiritual leader of the Moravian mission which sent many missionaries all over the world. John Wesley was himself a missionary to Georgia, North America. Second, the Great Awakening Movement affected the Edinburgh conference. The spiritual leaders of the Great Awakening Movement were Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, Timothy Twight, Charles Finney, Dwight L. Moody. They not only evangelized the people but also spiritually awakened them in North America through revival movements. They made a great impact upon the people's lives and challenged some of them to be cross-cultural missionaries. Third, the Student Volunteer Movement (SVM) had a great influence upon the Edinburgh conference in terms of leadership and strategy. The great leaders of the SVM were John R. Mott, Luther D. Wishard, Robert P. Wilder, and Charles K. Ober. Pierson stated, “All should go, and go to all.” Speer said, “The aim of foreign missions is to make Jesus Christ known to the world with a view to the full salvation of men, and their gathering into true and living churches.” As a result of the SVM, 20,500 foreign missionaries were sent to the world by 945. Further, Mott and Speer led the SVM to the 1910 Edingburgh conference by sharing the passion and vision for world mission. Fourth, the 1910 Edinburgh conference was able to be held through the persistent efforts of Mott, Speer, and James L. Barton.Mott said, “The end of the conference is the beginning of the conquest” in the closing address, while Speer mentioned “the immediate conquest of the world” at the opening service. The conference was centered on strategy, consultation, and cooperation to completethe task of evangelizing the world based on the Great Commission. In conclusion, both the evangelical movement of soul winning and the ecumenical movement, like the orgainization of IMC, began as a result of the great conference.
