The moratorium on Western missionary labour and financial resources has been a matter of lively interest over the past five decades. Postcolonial theologians and missiologists have blamed Western missionaries for introducing Christianity without paying attention to existing cultures of local people. Despite this, the work of Western missionaries has undeniably contributed to evangelization and the advancing of Western civilization in Africa. In this context, this paper considers Colin Morris’s views on the moratorium to prevent sending missionaries and financial resources from the West. Based on an examination of his views, it analyzes two elements that shape the discourse on the moratorium in the post-missionary era: the impact of the moratorium on Christian mission and the need for reconciliation and partnership between the churches in the global North and the global South. This paper concludes that we must promote the interdependence and mutuality of churches in the global North and the global South if the Christian imperative of making disciples of all nations is to be fulfilled.

宣教后时代的暂停与和解

在过去的五十年里,暂停西方传教士的劳动力和财政资源一直是引起人们极大兴趣的问题。后殖民时期的神学家和错误学家指责西方传教士在没有关注当地人现有文化的情况下引入基督教。尽管如此,不可否认的是,西方传教士的工作为福音的传播和非洲西部文明的发展做出了贡献。在这种情况下,本文考虑了科林·莫里斯(Colin Morris)关于暂停执行以防止从西方派遣传教士和财政资源的观点。在考察他的观点的基础上,它分析了两个因素,这些因素影响了宣教后时代关于暂停执行死刑的论述:暂停执行对基督教宣教的影响,以及全球北部和全球南部各教会之间的和解与伙伴关系的需要。本文的结论是,如果要实现基督教成为所有国家的门徒的基督徒的要求,我们就必须在全球北部和全球南部促进教会的相互依存和相互依存。
