Social Gospel

Japanese: 社会的福音 - しゃかいてきふくいん(英語表記)Social Gospel
Social Gospel
In the United States after the Civil War, when social problems brought about by capitalism came to the forefront with industrialization and urbanization, this was a Protestant movement that attempted to address social problems from the perspective of the Christian gospel and resolve them.Until then, the gospel had only been concerned with the salvation of individual souls, but this movement came to understand it as a gospel that also brought about social salvation, and addressed social issues primarily affecting workers, such as the abolition of child labor and the improvement of working conditions, becoming a major force in American churches and theology from the late 19th century to the early 20th century.
