Makoto\uff09\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Session 22: \u201cDoing Theology with the Japanese\u201d \u2013 Kelly Malone\u2019s Proposal and Its Meaning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Who is Kelly Malone?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelly Malone is an American missiologist and now a professor at Southwest Baptist University. From 1992, he served as a missionary in Japan for 15 years. He worked at Seinan Jo Gakuin University and the Christian Leadership Training Center (CLTC) in Tokyo, focusing on church development and theological education.<br>From this experience, he wrote the article <em>\u201cDoing Evangelical Theology with the Japanese\u201d<\/em> (2009). The key word in the title is <strong>\u201cwith.\u201d<\/strong> It is not \u201cto the Japanese,\u201d but <strong>\u201cwith the Japanese.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Why \u201cwith\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Malone asked an important question: <em>\u201cIf we only teach Western theology in Japanese, will it really reach Japanese hearts?\u201d<\/em> His answer was <strong>No.<\/strong><br>Why? Because Japanese Christian terms often carry meanings from Confucianism, Buddhism, and Shinto. For example, the word \u201ckami\u201d (god) usually means many gods in Japanese culture, but the Bible speaks of one God. This creates a gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Malone also noticed a problem: <strong>\u201ctwo-story faith.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Upper floor:<\/strong> Western idea of a transcendent God.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lower floor:<\/strong> Japanese religious customs like ancestor worship.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, Christianity looks like a foreign religion, attractive only to people with Western thinking. Sharing faith with family or friends becomes very hard.<br>Malone\u2019s proposal: <strong>\u201cCreate theology together with Japanese people.\u201d<\/strong> Not just translate Western theology, but respect Japanese culture, language, and values, and build theology in dialogue. This is called <strong>contextualization.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Examples of \u201cworking together\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(1) Believing in one God in a polytheistic culture<\/strong><br>When Japanese hear \u201cGod,\u201d they think of shrine gods or spirits. But Israel in the Old Testament faced the same challenge. They lived among many gods but confessed, \u201cThe Lord is one.\u201d This gives Japanese Christians courage: <em>\u201cWe share the same struggle.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(2) How to explain atonement?<\/strong><br>\u201cWhy does one man\u2019s death matter for everyone?\u201d For Japanese, the cross is hard to understand. Blood sacrifice sounds strange in Buddhist culture.<br>But Japan has the idea of <strong>honor and loyalty<\/strong> from the samurai tradition. Malone uses this: God\u2019s honor was damaged by sin, and Jesus acted for us to restore it. This is like Anselm\u2019s <strong>Satisfaction Theory<\/strong>, not Calvin\u2019s <strong>Penal Substitution<\/strong>, but it works as a starting point. After that, we can explain other views of atonement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(3) Can the church become a \u201choly place\u201d?<\/strong><br>Japanese religion values places like shrines and temples. But many churches are only \u201cplaces to learn.\u201d Malone says: <em>\u201cThe church should be a place to experience God\u2019s power.\u201d<\/em><br>How? By small groups in homes, caf\u00e9s, or workplaces, not only in church buildings. By serving the community\u2014childcare, helping the elderly, volunteering at schools. Faith should move into daily life, so people can meet Christ in real relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. A hint for churches after COVID-19<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Japanese churches face aging members, fewer pastors, and lower attendance. Malone\u2019s idea is not just a method. It asks: <em>\u201cWhat does it mean for Japanese people to believe and follow Christ today?\u201d<\/em><br>His approach\u2014dialogue between Bible and culture, creating theology together\u2014can help churches and believers experience faith and share it in society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
