New Theology

Japanese: 新神学 - しんしんがく
New Theology
Liberal theological thought emerged within the Protestant churches of Japan in the mid-Meiji period as a result of the activities of German missionary Spinner (who came to Japan in 1885) and American missionary Knapp (who came to Japan in 1889). With the help of modern philosophy and scientific thought, this thought offered a liberal interpretation of Christianity and theology, advocated a human-centered, rationalist stance, and advocated a Christianity for intellectuals. It resonated with many people and at one time had a major influence within the church.

ドイツからの宣教師シュピンナー (1885来日) ,アメリカからの宣教師ナップ (89来日) らの活動によって起った明治中期における日本のプロテスタント教会内部の自由主義神学思想。この思想は近代哲学や科学思想の助けをかりて,キリスト教や神学に対して自由な解釈をし,人間中心的・合理主義的立場を唱えて知識人のためのキリスト教を主張した。多くの人々の共鳴を呼び,教会内部に大きな影響を与えた時期もあった。
