ABSTRACT
Eucharist as a Celebration: A New Model
for the Korean Methodist Church
by
Shin Jong-Seung
The problem addressed in this study is two-fold: (1) the liturgy of the
Lord's Supper-in its form and content-focuses on Jesus' suffering on the cross,
not on the celebration of Easter as a feast; and (2) for this reason the liturgy is not
able to employ the significance of the primitive Christian tradition in and through
which the Eucharist has been performed. Because the Christian worship service
is originally the celebration of the resurrection of Christ, it is natural that the
Eucharist has an element of resurrection.
The Eucharist is not an act of remembrance for Jesus who died on the
cross, but the joyful fellowship with the Lord who arose from the dead. Worship
in the New Testament is dedicated to God in light of the resurrection, and
Eucharist in the early church must have been filled with thanksgiving and praising
in hope and glory.
However, the Korean Methodist Service Book lacks such elements of
celebration as resulrection and exaltation, descent of the Holy Spirit, and hope for
the heavenly feast with the Lord. In addition, there is no mention of doxology,
thanksgiving, unity and fellowship. On the contrary, the focus of the Eucharist
falls mainly on repentance of the participants. The liturgy of the Lord's Supper
needs to be revised to enhance the element of a feast at Easter.
This study begins with an examination of the nature and significance of
the Lord's Supper in the early church. Biblical, historical, and theological
perspectives are discussed. The study then reconstructs a liturgy of the Eucharist
in the context of the Korean Methodist churches. A key consideration of the new
liturgy is the celebration of the Supper in the setting of the fulI act of worship, of
which the Eucharist is the climax.
Finally, the new liturgical form suggested is not unmovable. The
eucharistic liturgy for the Korean church is designed to be repeatedly renewed
until the distinctive features of the Lord's Supper are fully restored. Easter joy is
not merely retrospective. It should be constantly renewed in the liturgy.
