초록

This article aims to investigate Dr. Park's judgement and appropriation of the westminster confession of faith in his works.
In the second section, considering his scholarly background we could properly assume that the Westminster Confession of Faith influenced on his thought from his junior high school to the Princeton Theological Seminary. Besides, the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary where he obtained his Ph. D. was under the influence of Old-princeton theology.
In the third section, we come to see that in his early works (published from homecoming before the publication of magnum opus) he quoted the Westminster Standards concerning the autority of Bible, church, predestination and the eternal decree and so on. He viewed the Confession as "the most clearly, the most powerful, the most logical and the most precise." Furthermore, he even thought that the calvinistic theology represented in the Westminster Standards is same as the apostolic theology.
In the fourth section, we come to know that in his magnum opus, Dogmatic Theology(7 vols. 1964-1973), he regarded the Confession as the standard and guidance of his theological study, but placed a limit on all confession including the Westminster Confession of Faith. In terms of the external knowledge principle in his dogmatic theology - prologomena, he developed his theology by quoting the Confession. Also, it is manifested that he gave many literal quotations about the Confession in terms of doctrine of God (trinity, election and reprobation, and the permissive providence of sin, and so on). In his doctrine of Man(he uniquely called the Doctrine of Man and Sin), he positively appropriated the Confession (free will, original sin, law and covenants). In terms of his doctirne of Christ, we come to see that he gave less quotation and less appropriation of the confession rather than in the other locus. For, he based his doctrine of Christ on Dutch reformed theology through the reading the writings of G. C. Berkouwer and L. Berkof who mainly quoted Confessio Belgica, Heidelberger Katechismus and Canons of Dort. In his doctrine of Salvation, he many times mentioned the Westminster Standards. But, he went so far as resolutely criticize the Dutch reformed tradition such as assurance of salvation that is different from the Confession. In his doctrine of Church, he made clear the distictive reformed doctrine of church against Luteran and Roman Catholic view. Lastly, in his Eschatology, Dr Park as the powerful champion of "historical premillenialism" didn't give many quotations from the Confession.
In the fifth section, we examined his late works in relation to the Westminster Confession of Faith. He thought the confession "as second dogmatic standards only to the Word of God." He appealed that the Korean Presbyterian Churches must hold to fast the Confession without any correction. Dr Park didn't equate the Confession with the Bible but firmly believed that the Confession need not to be corrected at all.
