ABSTRACT

The purpose of this research is to analyze and reflect on the foundational ideology(idea) and line of ‘Christian Endeavor’ through the initial publication of The Chin Saing(True Life) published at Sept. 1925 and propose the implications of Christian ethics to contemporary days. First, this paper deals with the bibliographic information on the magazine. Second, the writings of Byeong-Seon Hong, Yun-Gyung Kim, Pil-Geun Chae, Dae-Seon Ahn, and Seong-Sik Jang are chosen and summarized Christian Endeavor. Each of these writing is distinctive, but common argument is as follows: the sudden-changed society is corrupt.; Christianity is embodied.; young Christian should be responsible for its crucial accountability and obligation.; and, to bring up these young people, Christian Endeavor should carry the ball. Lastly, this research proposes ethical implications to all Christians today: Christians should be very cautious of Mammonism caused by corruption and set up calling by God; Christians should settle our personality as a moral identity based on Christian world-view; and, Christian community should handle sincerely ethical accountability and single out young people continually to seek to transform society by training.
