162 25 In this essay, especially, I focused on Pieris theological view about poverty for our understanding of poverty in Korean context as well as that of Asia today To clarify Pieris theology, I briefly researched the biblical view of poverty and view of Latin America Liberation Theology and Minjung Theology about the same topic In the Bible, the poor has been consistently considered God s beloved people and sons and daughters both in the Old and New Testaments Especially, in the New Testament, Jesus promised them a blessing of having the kingdom of heaven While Matthew expressed the poor in spirit (Mt 5:3), Luke the poor (Lk 6:20) Then, I reviewed Latin America Liberation Theology and Minjung Theology in terms of poverty Both started from the poor and oppressed people s context in Latin America and Korea Therefore, both are deeply interested in people or M i n j u n g s socio-political and economic context and their liberation In both theologies, the poor has been considered the subject of struggle for liberation (Latin America Liberation Theology) and history (Minjung Theology) Pieris suggests to see poverty in two ways: forced and voluntary He believes that the former is the result of oppression and evil power while the latter is the seed of liberation He strongly insists that the Asian churches should be the churches of Asia not in Asia through seeing poverty as their reality In his theology the voluntary poverty can work as a liberative way to defeat the forced poverty and the power of Mammon To build and find an authentic Asian theology and view of poverty, we also should recognize the poor context of Asia as a reality for doing theology in present Asia and Korea
