새뮤얼 즈웨이머

새뮤얼 즈웨이머(, 1867년 4월 12일 ~ 1952년 4월 2일)는 미국의 선교사, 여행가, 신학자로, 이슬람의 사도(The Apostle to Islam)라는 별명으로 알려져 있다.

생애 
새뮤얼 매리너스 즈웨이머는 미시간주 브리즐랜드에서 태어났다. 미시간 홀랜드에 있는 호프 칼리지와 뉴브런즈윅 신학교를 졸업하고 호프 칼리지, 럿거스 대학교에서 명예학 박사를 받았다.

신학 
즈웨이머는 부모의 칼빈주의 따른 신학으로 모든 것들에서 하나님의 주권을 강조하였다. 성경은 그의 믿음과 사역의 사고에 실제적으로 작동하게 했다. 그는 신론을 공부하고 성경의 하나님과 대조적인 것을 알았지만 좀더 토착화하였다. 그래서 이슬람의 신의 개념은 동양의 칼빈주의적 개념에서 이해가 되었다.

선교학 
즈웨이머의 선교의 최고의 목적은 사람들의 구원이 아니라 하나님의 영광이었다. 그는 칼빈이 본 것처럼 이 세상은 하나님의 영광의 극장인데 하나님의 복음이 전파됨으로써 그의 영광의 극장이 된다고 보았다. 결국 그의 선교학이란 하나님의 주권이 기초이며 하나님의 영광이 목표이며 하나님의 의지가 동기가 된다.
