Die verkondiging van die Evangelie van Christus aan Suid-Afrikaanse Moslems: 'n gemeentegebaseerde model
[摘要] English: The aim of this study is the establishment, for outreach amongst South African Muslims, of a model which recognizes and utilizes the presence of local Christian churches. Insights from both Practical Theology and Missiology are being considered. The study is divided into three main parts, namely a) foundation b) context and c) strategy. The following issues are discussed under these headings:Foundation: It was the intention of the researcher to avoid the pitfall of formulating a strategy on purely pragmatic grounds through the laying of a solid Biblical and Theological basis. This is done through focussing on: a) A theological discussion of the calling of the Church to reach out to those who have not yet responded to the Christian Gospel. b) An analysis of the relationship between the Gospel and Culture with a specific emphasis on outreach amongst South African Muslims. The conclusion is reached that the establishment of mono-cultural congregations should not be part of the outreach strategy, and that everything possible should be done to ensure that the Gospel is communicated in culturally understandable ways. c) The issue of the relationship between different faiths is discussed using three basic approaches namely pluralism, inclusivism and particularism. A particularist approach wherein the uniqueness of the Christian message is maintained, is chosen as the basis of this study. It is emphasized that it is the calling and task of every believer and congregation to proclaim the Gospel in an unbelieving world.Context: In this part of the study the 'environment' in which outreach to South African Muslims will occur, is researched. The following issues are discussed: a) The main theological differences between Islam and Christianity as well as an historical overview of the relations between adherents of the two faiths. b) The Muslim community in South Africa is analysed. Specific attention is paid to its history, organisation and priorities. Differences within the community are also discussed. c) Interaction between South African Christians and Muslims is discussed with a specific focus on the relationship between the communities, their perceptions of each other, efforts at Christian outreach and the impact of conversion.Strategy: In this section an attempt is made to formulate a model for Christian outreach amongst South African Muslims based in local churches. It is divided into two main parts. They are: a) A section focusing on outreach among Muslims and b) A section focusing on the pastoral care of those who accepted the Christian faith from an Islamic background. In the first sections suggestions are made for both corporate and individual outreach. Emphasis is laid on the fact that Muslims should be approached with gentleness and respect, and that every effort should be made to introduce them to the message of the Christian Gospel in a culturally understandable way. In the section focusing on the care of Christian believers from an Islamic background the issues that can make the integration of new Christians from a Muslim background, into the church difficult, are highlighted. In response to this, a fivefold model (which entails proclamation and teaching, worship, service, community and encouragement) for the care of converts is suggested.The researcher is convinced that a practical and workable model for outreach among South African Muslims is presented in this study.
