There had been many influential protestant missionaries in the last 130 years in the history of the Korean Protestant missionaries but there had not been one who was more influential then John Ross from Scotland. John Ross was not only a missionary in China, but he made the Korean translation of the New Testament. A publication which already existed in Korea years before the American Protestant missionaries came to Korea. It is very rare for any country to have such a missional history of this manner. Nevertheless, the fact remains that there is very minimal data about John Ross in the Korean Church history. In this paper, the Fulfillment Theology from the position of the Missiological Theology is dealt with as we try to better understand John Ross. As he witnessed the emphasize of the Confucianism’s ancestral worship in China, he began to better understood the Fulfillment Theology from the position of the Missiological Theology.In this paper, the life and ministry of John Ross along with his missiological attitude towards other religion and the relationship of Confucianism and Christianity are dealt with. In particular, this paper deals with the efforts of John Ross as he searched for the contact point of Christianity in Confucianism and his desire to lead the contact point to Jesus Christ in his work. His method was to increase the efficiency of the witness of the Gospel.John Ross, in his 39 years of missionary work in China baptized over 4000. And through his faithful efforts his work is still evident in China today as DongGuan Church and DongBook Seminary in Shenyang, China are actively operating. Thus, there is a great significance in studying the Fulfillment Theology from the position of Ross's Missiological Theology. If we obtain a better understanding of Ross's Missiological Theology, it will not only be beneficial to Christianity but essential in witnessing to other religions. The literature review method was used for this paper, as major writings of Ross and primary data founded was used. In addition, to gain a better understanding of John Ross and his work, Ross's home and his grave site in Scotland was visited 10 times and his main mission field, Shenyang, China 15 times.
