AB - The matter of trust becomes an important issue in this society. The foundation of trust in Christianity is the belief of God’s grace that it is given by God for people as a gift. Trust is not only the gift from God, but it also is a critical value which Christians need to regain. There are three points for this in Christian ethics; self-trust, we-trust, and the trust for the future. Christianity has been valued self-negation, as a humble piety, rather than self-trust. Ironically, this becomes a hinder to have a sound sense of trust. We-trust is a process to formulate this based on the sense of community. This is not the communal selfishness nor mass selfishness. Instead, this is the trust which comes from ‘embracement’ rather than exclusiveness.’ And the trust for the future does not mean a simple optimistic world view, but it is the critical thinking about the world with the hope of the Eschaton, as the Jesus’ community had. Thus, trust is the capability to reform the world that Christians do not only retrospect the present, but they also believe in the future of God.
