가나 공화국 아딘크라 상징주의 (Adinkra Symbolism)에 나타난 신념체계 문화 이해와 선교 모색 = A Search for Cultural Understanding and Mission Strategy on Belief System in Adinkra Symbolism of the Republic of Ghana

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The characteristics of a world-wide folk religion begin from control the world of spirit. The symbol making the center of folk religion is a natural belief transmitted among the people, that is a natural religion and a religious system believed by the people. This belief system of symbolism is relevant to a natural religion when religion divides into artificial religion and natural religion.
Adinkra symbol is a religious phenomenon learned from experience of tribes` long lives to overcome the natural phenomena. This is a value system and belief that they generally have. Symbol is deeply connected with life and social ethics because it starts as one source required for life by be mainly based on tribal or living communities. Adinkra symbol is also deeply linked to gods, kings, and general things between human and human.
Symbol has a message of deliverance to ask for physical and mental healthy and affluent life by rescuing oneself from various realities, including gods and humans, kings and humans, chiefs and villagers, disease and poverty, war and peace, food and health, etc. Adinkra symbol in Ghana consists of blood relation, non-proselytizing, so symbol in Africa shows actions of faith mainly based on the center of the blood relative or family. The scope of the blood relation is closely related to the structure of the society associated with ancestor worship, for example, patriarchal society, paternal line ancestry and the absolute will of the soul. Matriarchal society has a feature that it has strong faith for soul of maternal line ancestry. However, Adinkra symbol is deeply related to the social relations based on a king and a chief of village, and human relationship, and is also very dynamic in terms of order and norms of various classes. In this respect, symbol is highly social. At the same time, it is not universal, comprehensive, systematic, but it includes religious reason and behavior patterns based on its own values systems and worldviews.
The evangelical mission toward people who believe in cul-ture of belief system needs access to blood relationship, that is values of the ideology of racism. It is important to find a point of contact of evangelical mission by analyzing original causes of faith, emotions and values deep placed in culture of symbolism. In addition, the gospel for an ethnic society needs to build up a sense of trust, to appropriately use storytelling and a network of relatives, and to utilize multiple and individual decision. Lastly, it is essential to lead people, having systems of Adinkra symbolism in the situation of city community or personal society by escaping from community of tribal society, to the gospel. The evangelical mission for them is possible by continually visiting them, minimizing cultural shock, and giving a welcome warmly.
In order keep people who have systems and cultural values of Adinkra symbolism to the gospel constantly, evangelists have to pursuit of assimilation to Christianity culture through constant observation, application, the concern, and caring.
