Teologi Adopsi dalam Rekonstruksi Identitas Rohani di tengah Mentalitas Budaya: Analisis Historis-Gramatikal Roma 8:15–17
type: item
description: Studies on Romans 8:15–17 in the Indonesian context frequently fall into one of two problematic poles: an experiential subjectivism that detaches itself from Scripture's textual meaning or a rigid academic exegesis that lacks pastoral and transformative force. This text is often read without considering the cultural mentalities of hierarchy, nrimo, and ewuh pakewuh that shape how Indonesian believers relate to God and understand themselves. This article exegetes Romans 8:15–17 using Walter C. Kaiser Jr.'s historical-grammatical framework, comprising contextual, syntactical, verbal, theological, and homiletical analysis, to establish the single unifying meaning of the text: the Holy Spirit transfers believers from the domain of slavery (???????) into adoption as God's children (????????), confirms that identity through inner testimony, and directs them toward glory through participation in Christ's sufferings. The article offers a systematic integration of technical exegesis and Indonesian contextual theology, reading the themes of adoption, the Spirit's witness, and shared inheritance as both a prophetic critique of and a theological redemption for these three cultural mentalities. Abstrak Studi Roma 8:15–17 dalam konteks Indonesia kerap terjebak pada dua kutub: subjektivisme pengalaman rohani yang melepaskan diri dari teks, atau eksegesis akademis yang kaku dan tidak bertransformasi pastoral. Teks ini pun jarang dibaca dalam ketegangan dengan mentalitas hierarkis, nrimo, dan ewuh pakewuh yang nyata membentuk cara jemaat berelasi dengan Allah dan diri mereka. Artikel ini mengeksegesis Roma 8:15–17 menggunakan kerangka historis-gramatikal Walter C. Kaiser Jr., yakni analisis kontekstual, sintaksis, verbal, teologis, dan homiletis, untuk merumuskan makna tunggal teks: Roh Kudus mengangkat orang percaya dari domain perbudakan (???????) ke dalam pengangkatan sebagai anak Allah (????????), meneguhkan identitas itu melalui kesaksian batin, dan menuntun mereka menuju kemul…

Imago Dei sebagai Kontra-Narasi: Rekonstruksi Respons Pendidikan Kristiani terhadap Perundungan melalui Antropologi Teologis
type: item
description: Christian educational responses to bullying have predominantly remained reactive-behavioral and moralistic-imperative, without addressing the ontological roots of the phenomenon. This article aims to reconstruct Christian educational responses to bullying through the framework of theological anthropology, positioning the doctrine of imago Dei as a counter-narrative against the logic of dehumanization underlying bullying behavior. Employing a constructive-theological method with doctrinal-hermeneutical analysis, this study traces the development of the imago Dei concept from the patristic tradition (Irenaeus), through the Reformation (Calvin), to contemporary theology (Barth, Moltmann, Volf). The article argues that bullying constitutes an ontological distortion of the relational-communal dimension of human nature and proposes an imago Dei pedagogy as a distinctive and transformative framework for Christian education in anti-bullying missions. Abstrak Respons pendidikan Kristiani terhadap fenomena perundungan (bullying) selama ini cenderung bersifat reaktif-behavioral dan moralistik-imperatif, tanpa menyentuh akar ontologis dari persoalan tersebut. Artikel ini bertujuan merekonstruksi respons pendidikan Kristiani terhadap perundungan melalui kerangka antropologi teologis, dengan memposisikan doktrin imago Dei sebagai kontra-narasi terhadap logika dehumanisasi yang mendasari perilaku perundungan. Menggunakan metode teologis-konstruktif dengan analisis doktrinal-hermeneutis, studi ini menelusuri perkembangan konsep imago Dei dari tradisi patristik (Irenaeus), reformasi (Calvin), hingga teologi kontemporer (Barth, Moltmann, Volf). Artikel ini berargumen bahwa perundungan merupakan distorsi ontologis terhadap hakikat kemanusiaan yang berdimensi relasional-komunal dan menawarkan pedagogi imago Dei sebagai kerangka pendidikan Kristiani yang distingtif dan transformatif dalam misi anti-perundungan.

Fintech sebagai Tantangan Teologis bagi Spiritualitas dan Tata Kelola Gereja Kristen Kontemporer di Era Digital
type: item
description: The development of financial technology (fintech) has brought fundamental changes to the mana-gement of financial resources, including within contemporary Christian churches. This digital transformation affects not only administrative practices but also touches theological dimensions related to spirituality and church governance. The use of digital payment systems and electronic wallets—symbols of online financial platforms—in the practice of offerings and church financial management indicates a significant paradigm shift. This study analyzes fintech as a theological challenge to spirituality and governance within Christian churches in the digital era. The research employs a qualitative approach through a literature review. The findings indicate that the adoption of fintech in church financial management entails a paradigm shift, characterized by increased efficiency and transparency, which fosters greater congregational participation. Moreover, an integrative theological perspective positions fintech as a space for discerning faith, enabling the critical and responsible use of technology to strengthen faith practices, witness, and the integrity of church ministry. Abstrak Perkembangan financial technology (fintech) telah membawa perubahan mendasar dalam mengelola sumber daya keuangan, termasuk gereja Kristen kontemporer. Transformasi digital ini tidak hanya berdampak pada aspek administratif, tetapi juga menyentuh dimensi teologis yang berkaitan dengan spiritualitas dan tata kelola gereja. Penggunaan sistem pembayaran digital dan dompet elektronik dalam praktik persembahan dan pengelolaan keuangan gereja menunjukkan adanya perubahan cara berpikir. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis fintech sebagai tantangan teologis bagi spiritualitas dan tata kelola gereja Kristen di era digital. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif melalui studi pustaka. Hasil penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa adopsi fintech dalam pengelolaan keuangan gereja meng…

Dekonstruksi Iman dan Degradasi Moral sebagai Tantangan Kepemimpinan Gereja: Analisis Eksegetis Ibrani 3:12-14
type: item
description: Faith deconstruction in contemporary Christianity reflects an important transition in religious experience, weakening congregational commitment and moral integrity. Hebrews 3:12–14 gives a serious warning about the risk of having a heart that does not believe and the trickiness of sin, which can lead to abandoning faith. Therefore, it is very important to read this passage again in light of today's faith challenges. The emergence of faith deconstruction narratives alongside moral degradation across various church contexts points to the urgent need for a solid biblical foundation in spiritual leadership. This study aims to exegetically analyze Hebrews 3:12–14 to formulate a theological framework for church leadership responsibility. The methodology employs exegetical analysis through a historical approach and literature review. Findings affirm that church leadership must be rooted in sound theological understanding that integrates spiritual authority with pastoral responsibility. Strengthening faith and preventing moral degradation require sustained attention to the condition of congregants' hearts and the ongoing practice of mutual exhortation. This study offers implications for a transformative, preventive model of church leadership that nurtures faith and communal moral integrity. Abstrak Dekonstruksi iman dalam kekristenan kontemporer menandai pergeseran pengalaman religius yang berdampak pada melemahnya komitmen dan integritas moral jemaat. Ibrani 3:12–14 menghadirkan peringatan teologis tentang bahaya hati yang tidak percaya dan tipu daya dosa yang berpotensi menuntun pada kemurtadan, sehingga relevan dibaca ulang dalam terang krisis iman masa kini. Munculnya narasi dekonstruksi iman disertai degradasi moral dalam berbagai konteks gereja menunjukkan urgensi fondasi biblika yang kokoh bagi kepemimpinan rohani. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis secara eksegetis Ibrani 3:12–14 guna merumuskan kerangka teologis tentang tanggung jawab kepemimpinan gereja. Metode…

Dinamika Kerukunan Kristen Awal: Relasi Yahudi dan Non-Yahudi di Jemaat Roma
type: item
description: The identity tension between Jewish and Gentile Christians in the Roman church stemmed from the Edict of Claudius (49 AD), which expelled Jews from Rome. When they returned during Nero's reign, friction emerged between those upholding the Torah law and those living in freedom in Christ. Previous studies tend to stop at the historical-descriptive level. This research fills the gap by examining how Paul rhetorically and pastorally processed this context in Romans 12-15, interpreting brotherly love (agape) and Christian freedom (eleutheria) as the foundation of cross-ethnic community ethics. Through a qualitative-exegetical approach integrating historical, rhetorical, and lexical-theological criticism, this study traces Paul's pastoral strategy in building reconciliation between "the strong" and "the weak." The main contribution lies in structurally connecting the con-text of the Edict of Claudius with Pauline reconciliation, demonstrating that Romans is not merely a theological exposition but a pastoral document relevant to today's church in addressing conflicts arising from diverse identities and cultures. Abstrak Ketegangan identitas Kristen, Yahudi, dan non-Yahudi di jemaat Roma berakar dari Edik Klaudius (49 M) yang mengusir orang Yahudi dari Roma. Ketika mereka kembali di masa Nero, terjadi gesekan antara mereka yang menjunjung hukum Taurat dan yang hidup dalam kebebasan di Kristus. Kajian sebelumnya cenderung berhenti pada level historis-deskriptif. Penelitian ini mengisi celah dengan mengkaji bagaimana Paulus mengolah konteks tersebut secara retoris-pastoral dalam Roma 12-15, menafsirkan kasih persaudaraan (agape) dan kebebasan Kristen (eleutheria) sebagai dasar etika komunitas lintas etnis. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif-eksegetis yang menyatukan kritik historis, retoris, dan leksikal-teologis, penelitian ini menelusuri strategi pastoral Paulus dalam membangun rekonsiliasi antara "yang kuat" dan "yang lemah." Kontribusi utama adalah usaha untuk mengaitkan konte…

Makna Kata Aletheia Berdasarkan Yohanes 18:37 dan Implementasinya dalam Kehidupan Orang Percaya di Era Post-Truth
type: item
description: The digital age, with its post-truth character, has reshaped the understanding of truth, displacing objective facts with emotions, ideological interests, and subjective narratives, including in religious life. The Christian confession of faith in truth faces serious challenges, making Jesus' testimony about aletheia in John 18:37 relevant for re-examination. This study investigates the theological significance of aletheia in John 18:37 and its ramifications for believers in the contemporary post-truth context. It employs a qualitative method, using a literature review approach, through interpretive-theological analysis of biblical texts, Greek lexicons, biblical commentaries, theological literature, and contemporary studies. The study concludes that aletheia cannot be diminished to propositional truth; instead, it is perceived as a divine reality that is incarnational, relational, and exemplified in the person of Jesus Christ. This understanding provides a relevant theological framework for responding to the crisis of truth in the post-truth era, characterized by relativism, the dominance of emotion, and the fragmentation of authority. This study emphasizes the importance of Christian witness rooted in integrity, honesty, and spiritual sensitivity. Abstrak Era digital dengan karakter post-truth telah menggeser pemahaman tentang kebenaran, di mana fakta objektif dikalahkan oleh emosi, kepentingan ideologis, dan narasi subjektif, termasuk dalam kehidupan beriman. Pengakuan iman Kristen tentang kebenaran menghadapi tantangan serius, sehingga kesaksian Yesus mengenai aletheia dalam Yohanes 18:37 menjadi sangat relevan untuk ditelaah kembali. Penelitian ini mengkaji makna teologis aletheia dalam Yohanes 18:37 dan implikasinya bagi kehidupan orang percaya di era post-truth. Menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi pustaka melalui analisis teks Alkitab, leksikon Yunani, komentar biblika, serta literatur teologis dan kajian kontemporer secara interpretatif-teol…

Tritunggal Perikoresis: Persekutuan dan Interpenetrasi Tiga Pribadi Ilahi
type: item
description: The Christian doctrine of the Trinity has sparked debate over time. There are many views related to it, including Tritheism, Arianism, and modalism. There are many arguments to explain the nature of this Trinity. Everything is done to address these various misunderstandings. One attempt to explain the nature of the Trinity is the concept of perichoresis. A hermeneutic method is used in the writing of this article. This method is considered appropriate because it uses various in-depth analyses to reveal the truth in question. This article aims to explain, in simple terms, the concept of the Trinity of Perichoresis and the importance of believing in the practice of the believer's life. Abstrak Ajaran Kristen tentang Tritunggal telah menimbulkan perdebatan dari waktu ke waktu. Ada banyak pandangan terkait dengan hal itu, termasuk triteisme, Arianisme, dan modalisme. Ada banyak argumentasi untuk menjelaskan hakekat dari ketritunggalan ini. Semua dilakukan untuk memberi jawaban atas berbagai kesalahpahaman tersebut. Salah satu upaya untuk menjelaskan hakekat dari ketritunggal adalah konsep perikoresis. Penulisan artikel ini menggunakan metode hermeneutik. Metode ini dinilai cocok karena menggunakan berbagai analisis mendalam sehingga dapat mengungkapkan kebenaran yang dimaksud. Artikel ini ditulis untuk menjelaskan dengan cara yang mudah dipahami tentang konsep Tritunggal perikoresis dan menunjukkan betapa pentingnya iman pada Tritunggal dalam kehidupan sehari.

Kepemimpinan yang Mendengar: Atensitas sebagai Visi Profetik Pemimpin Perempuan dalam Lanskap Eklesiologis Post-Digital
type: item
description: This article examines attentiveness as an alternative framework for comprehending women's leadership vision in post-digital ecclesiological contexts. This study employs a phenomenological framework, drawing on Simone Weil's conception of attention as the supreme expression of love and prayer, alongside Emmanuel Levinas's idea of an ethical response to the face of the Other. It argues that during the current crisis of attention caused by the attention economy and confusion in the post-truth era, the most important type of visionary leadership is not about making bold predictions for the future but about being fully present and truly listening. Historically, church structures have positioned women in liminal and caring roles, leading them to develop distinctive repertoires of attentive practices. This type of leadership focused on being attentive pushes back against the fast-paced and flashy ways of thinking, while also creating opportunities to build a church that is more welcoming and responsive Abstrak Artikel ini mengeksplorasi atensitas sebagai paradigma alternatif untuk memahami visi kepemimpinan perempuan dalam konteks eklesiologis post-digital. Melalui pendekatan fenomenologis yang berdialog dengan pemikiran Simone Weil tentang atensi sebagai bentuk tertinggi kasih dan doa serta Emmanuel Levinas tentang respons etis terhadap wajah ‘Yang Lain,’ studi ini berargumen bahwa di tengah krisis atensi yang dipicu oleh attention economy dan fragmentasi epistemik era post-truth, bentuk visi profetik yang paling dibutuhkan bukanlah proyeksi heroik ke masa depan, melainkan kemampuan hadir secara penuh dan mendengarkan dengan radikal. Perempuan yang secara historis diposisikan dalam peran-peran liminal dan caring dalam struktur gereja telah mengembangkan repertoar praktik atentif yang distingtif. Kepemimpinan berbasis atensitas ini menawarkan resistensi terhadap logika spectacle dan akselerasi, sekaligus membuka kemungkinan bagi rekonstruksi eklesiologi yang lebih hospitat…

Empowering Leadership dalam Pendidikan Teologi: Strategi Inovasi dan Pengembangan Kompetensi Lulusan di Era Revolusi Industri 4.0
type: item
description: The era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 presents complex challenges for theological education in responding to rapid social, cultural, and technological changes. This study aims to examine the role of empowering leadership in fostering innovation in theological education and in developing graduate competencies relevant to the digital era. Using a qualitative approach grounded in a systematic literature review, this research analyzes academic sources on leadership theory, educational innovation, digital transformation, and graduate formation in religious higher education institutions. The findings indicate that empowering leadership plays a strategic role in creating an academic culture that is participatory, collaborative, and open to change. This approach encourages curriculum innovation, the integration of technology in learning, and the formation of graduates who are theologically grounded, digitally competent, and spiritually mature. This study contributes theoretically to the discourse on leadership in theological education while also offering practical implications for Christian educational institutions in responding to global disruption in a visionary and transformative manner.

Meneropong Paham Kesembuhan New Age Movement dari Lensa Pentakostal
type: item
description: The progress of time is an undeniable fact of life. Various aspects of human life undergo significant changes due to multiple factors. Change is a response from humans to the occurring conditions. One aspect that can change is beliefs or faith. The New Age Movement is a movement that emerged in the progress of time. The offered movement is a response to the struggles or issues humans face. However, it becomes problematic when the movement appears to align with the Word of God but contradicts it, especially when discussing Healing. The qualitative research method used a comparative approach to understanding healing in the New Age and Pentecostal perspectives. This research aims to enable Christians, specifically Pentecostals, to understand the significant differences and avoid being trapped in teachings that do not align with the Word of God. The findings of this research indicate that the understanding of healing in the New Age Movement revolves around humans while healing in the Pentecostal perspective centers on God. Human healing from illnesses is not due to their strength or human factors but because God is the healer. The primary focus of healing is not physical healing but eternal salvation. The healing experienced by humans serves as a means for spreading the Gospel and witnessing the power of God. Abstrak Perkembangan jaman adalah suatu fakta kehidupan yang tidak dapat dipungkiri. Segala aspek dalam kehidupan manusia banyak mengalami perubahan yang disebabkan berbagai macam factor. Perubahan merupakan suatu respons dari manusia terhadap kondisi yang terjadi. Salah satu aspek yang dapat mengalami perubahan adalah keyakinan atau kepercayaan. New Age Movement merupakan suatu gerakan yang muncul dalam perkembangan jaman. Suatu gerakan yang ditawarkan merupakan suatu jawaban atas pergumulan atau persoalan manusia. Namun menjadi suatu permasalahan gerakan yang seolah-olah benar sesuai Firman Tuhan namun Faktanya sangat bertentangan, secara khusus pada saat membaha…

Kepemimpinan Kristen di Era Digital: Upaya gereja Membangun Spiritualitas yang Relevan melalui Media Sosial
type: item
description: Christian leadership and spirituality must work together in today's digital era. It is to face new challenges in maintaining the relevance of spirituality through social media. In an increasingly virtual world, churches must be able to utilise technology to convey Christian teachings and biblical values without losing the depth of spirituality. This is due to the amount of deviant content and hoaxes that must be filtered out. This research aims to investigate the role of social media in fostering relevant spirituality within the context of Christian leadership. The research method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach, utilizing a literature study, which involves analyzing various theological sources and scientific articles from accredited and reputable journals, as well as research related to the use of social media in the church. The results show that although social media offers excellent opportunities to reach a wider audience, the primary challenge lies in maintaining the depth of spiritual messages and building authentic faith communities. Church leaders need to develop the right digital skills to lead with love and integrity and avoid the negative influence of cyberspace. In conclusion, social media can be effective in Christian leadership if used wisely to deepen spirituality and expand the church's mission. The novelty of this research provides new insights into the integration between Christian leadership and digital technology. Abstrak Kepemimpinan Kristen dan kerohanian adalah sesuatu yang harus bersinergi di era digital dewasa ini. Hal itu untuk menghadapi tantangan baru dalam menjaga relevansi spiritualitas melalui media sosial.

Sebab banyak konten dan hoak yang menyimpang yang harus diwaspadai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji peran media so…

Merawat Harmoni: Prinsip Deliberatif Jurgen Habermas sebagai Pilar Penghormatan Keberagaman di Indonesia
type: item
description: Diversity in Indonesia is both an identity and a challenge in building social harmony. Deliberative democracy, as proposed by Jurgen Habermas, offers a dialogue mechanism based on rationality and inclusivity to reduce identity-based polarization. This study analyzes how deliberative democracy can be integrated with local wisdom, such as consensus and cooperation, to strengthen religious tolerance and social harmony. Using the literature study methods and critical discourse analysis, this study found that deliberative democracy is relevant in a political context and in building collective awareness of religious and cultural plurality. This approach allows society to participate in a more inclusive and equal public discourse, reducing the potential for SARA-based conflict. From a Christian perspective, the values of love and brotherhood are the moral foundations for people to play an active role in maintaining harmony. The conclusion of this study confirms that integrating deliberative democracy and Christian theological values can be an effective strategy for facing the challenges of tolerance and harmony in Indonesia's multicultural society. Abstrak Keberagaman di Indonesia merupakan identitas sekaligus tantangan dalam membangun harmoni sosial. Demokrasi deliberatif, sebagaimana dikemukakan oleh Jurgen Habermas, menawarkan mekanisme dialog berbasis rasionalitas dan inklusivitas untuk mereduksi polarisasi berbasis identitas. Kajian ini menganalisis bagaimana demokrasi deliberatif dapat diintegrasikan dengan kearifan lokal, seperti musyawarah mufakat dan gotong royong, guna memperkuat toleransi beragama dan harmoni sosial. Dengan metode studi pustaka dan analisis wacana kritis, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa demokrasi deliberatif tidak hanya relevan dalam konteks politik, tetapi juga dalam membangun kesadaran kolektif terhadap pluralitas agama dan budaya. Pendekatan ini memungkinkan masyarakat untuk berpartisipasi dalam diskursus publik yang lebih inklusif dan setara,…

type: item
description: The wedding at Cana is one of the sources of Biblical information that presents the traditions of society in the past. Wine, an integral and important part of the wedding at Cana, is the center of attention in this narrative. This article aims to discover the meaning of drinking wine in wedding traditions in Kana and its relevance to Ulos in traditional Toba Batak weddings. The author uses qualitative methods with literature studies to reconstruct the value of wine-drinking culture in Cana and build theological analogies by referring to previous writings on similar topics. The research results found that drinking wine in the wedding story in Kana and Ulos, as well as the traditional wedding traditions of the Toba Batak tribe, are cultural treasures and local wisdom characteristic of their time. Just as the Bible accepts wine in wedding traditions, so does Ulos in the wedding traditions of the Toba Batak tribe. Jesus' respect for traditional values was seen when He involved himself in helping the groom's family to provide wine at the wedding in Cana. Abstrak Pernikahan di Kana merupakan salah satu sumber informasi Alkitab yang menyajikan tradisi masyarakat di masa lampau. Anggur yang merupakan bagian integral dan penting dalam pernukahan di Kana menjadi pusat perhatian dalam narasi ini.

type: item
description: Indonesia, as the world's largest archipelago with 336 ethnic groups and 250 regional languages, embodies the motto "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika," reflecting its cultural diversity. Wayang, as a Javanese cultural heritage, serves not only as entertainment but also as an educational medium for noble values relevant to all ages, particularly early childhood. This study employs a descriptive qualitative literature method, analyzing various scientific sources, including books, journals, research findings, and credible materials. Christian character education can be effectively implemented through the active, progressive, and creative use of culture as a learning medium for Christian Religious Education (CRE). Educational character values demonstrated in wayang purwa stories can serve as oral teaching media for moral values based on local wisdom, contextualized for contemporary life without age restrictions. In the global era, culture must remain preserved yet innovative. Early childhood represents the nation's future generation, who should inherit cultural wealth and embedded noble values, ensuring cultural heritage persists across generations in Indonesia. Abstrak Indonesia sebagai negara kepulauan terbesar dunia dengan 336 suku dan 250 bahasa daerah memiliki semboyan "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" yang mencerminkan keragaman budaya. Wayang sebagai warisan budaya Jawa tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai hiburan, tetapi juga media pembelajaran nilai-nilai luhur yang relevan untuk segala usia, khususnya anak usia dini.

Abolisi Dosa: Dekonstruksi Semantik dan Ketidaksesuaiannya dengan Teologi Penebusan Kristen
type: item
description: The phrase "abolition of sin" has surfaced in modern Indonesian Christian discourse subsequent to President Prabowo Subianto's conferment of abolition to Tom Lembong in a sugar import case. This study deconstructs the semantic meaning of abolition and examines its compatibility with Christian redemption doctrine. The study uses qualitative research and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to look at the meanings of key terms related to redemption and to critique them within Christian teachings about salvation. The findings show that "abolition" means the removal of legal systems by an outside authority and is mainly about rules and administration. This semantic field is fundamentally incompatible with the biblical concept of sin as an existential-relational reality and contradicts the doctrine of redemption, which emphasizes reconciliation, ransom payment, and status renewal. The appropriation of this terminology poses serious pastoral implications: spiritual passivity, reinforcement of nominalism, and neglect of spiritual disciplines. Therefore, the term "abolition of sin" lacks theological validity. This study recommends using biblical terminology such as "redemption of sin" (apolutr?sis), "forgiveness of sin" (aphesis), or "reconciliation" (katallag?) to maintain theological integrity and evangelical clarity. Abstrak Istilah "abolisi dosa" muncul dalam wacana Kristen kontemporer Indonesia setelah Presiden Prabowo Subianto memberikan abolisi kepada Tom Lembong dalam kasus impor gula. Penelitian ini mendekonstruksi makna semantik abolisi dan menguji kesesuaiannya dengan doktrin penebusan Kristen. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) melalui analisis semantic domain, eksegesis istilah kunci penebusan (apolutrusis, aphesis, hilast?rion, katallage), dan kritik dogmatis dalam kerangka soteriologi Kristen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa "abolisi" secara leksikal merujuk pada penghapusan sistem hukum melalui otorita…

description: Digitalization of social life changes how church leaders interact with congregations in pastoral care. The tendency happens that there is the spread of unfiltered information and shifts in social values that can change culture and morality. This study aims to examine the efforts of church leaders in shaping digital ethics following the principles of Christian teachings, as well as exploring strategies that can be applied to increase the effectiveness of church leadership in the digital world. It uses a descriptive qualitative method with a literature study approach, which involves analyzing literature related to digital ethics, Christian leadership, and technology in the church context. It was concluded that church leaders must deeply understand digital technology and Christian ethical principles to guide congregants wisely in interacting online because church leaders in the digital world need to transform church leadership in today's digital era so that it can shape digital ethics in the church as part of the implementation of digital ethics in the church as a whole. Then, Christian leadership can find strategies to increase the effectiveness of Christian leadership in the digital world, which can support the use of technology to teach the Christian faith effectively.

Kohabitasi dalam Terang Etika Kristen: Kajian Eksploratif terhadap Implikasi 1 Korintus 6:18-20 bagi Kehidupan Moral Jemaat
type: item
description: This paper is designed to exploratively examine the implications of 1 Corinthians 6:8-20 to deal with cohabitation in the light of Christianity. Cohabitation is the phenomenon of living together outside of marriage. The phenomenon of cohabitation also occurs in areas with a majority Christian population. This phenomenon of cohabitation in Christian couples is contrary to Christian ethical values. The church must implement an appropriate strategy to respond to this phenomenon through the value of biblical truth. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 provides an affirmation of the sanctity of the body that must be maintained by every believer. The verse can also prevent Christian couples from deciding to live together outside of marriage. The verse reinforces the value of integrity, morals, and ethics that can be held by Christian couples to honor the commitment and sacredness of marriage. Through a descriptive qualitative approach, the author tries to explore the implications of 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 in response to the phenomenon of cohabitation in the light of Christian ethics. The author asserts that 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 provides a moral, ethical, and integrity reinforcement for Christian couples not to engage in cohabitation. Abstrak Tulisan ini dibuat untuk mengkaji secara eksploratis implikasi 1 Korintus 6:8-20 dalam rangka menghadapi kohabitasi dalam terang Kristen. Kohabitasi merupakan fenomena tinggal bersama di luar ikatan pernikahan. Fenomena kohabitasi juga terjadi di daerah dengan mayoritas penduduk Kristen. Fenonema kohabitasi dalam pasangan Kristen ini bertentangan dengan nilai-nilai etikan Kristen. Gereja harus menerapkan sebuah strategi yang tepat untuk menjawab fenomena ini melalui nilai kebenaran Alkitab. 1 Korintus 6:18-20 memberikan sebuah penegasan tentang kesucian tubuh yang harus dijaga oleh setiap orang percaya. Ayat tersebut juga dapat mencegah pasangan Kristen mengambil keputusan tinggal bersama di luar pernihakan. Ayat tersebut memberikan penguatan terhad…

Memaknai Koinonia dalam Ibadah Online Berdasarkan Kisah Para Rasul 2:42
type: item
description: The development of digital technology has brought significant changes to various aspects of life, including how congregations worship and fellowship within faith communities. Situations like the pandemic and the increasing mobility of modern society have prompted churches to use online platforms as alternative media for worship and connection despite geographic limitations. This transformation has led to a renewed reflection on the concept of koinonia or fellowship, traditionally associated with physical interaction in worship, as exemplified in Acts 2:42. This verse emphasizes the importance of gathering together for teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and communal prayer as a form of profound spiritual connection. This article explores the concept of koinonia in online worship by analyzing the relevance of early church fellowship values in the digital era. The research employs a descriptive-analytical method and an exegetical approach centered on the textual study of Acts 2:42 to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning and application of koinonia in a modern context. A literature review is also conducted to identify the challenges and potential of online worship in strengthening spiritual connections and fellowship amid the limitations of physical interaction. This article offers a fresh perspective for churches on interpreting koinonia and optimizing online worship practices as a meaningful form of fellowship without compromising the essence of spiritual depth and togetherness within the Christian community. Abstrak Perkembangan teknologi digital telah membawa perubahan besar dalam berbagai aspek kehidupan, termasuk cara jemaat beribadah dan bersekutu dalam komunitas iman. Situasi seperti pandemi dan meningkatnya mobilitas masyarakat modern mendorong gereja untuk memanfaatkan platform daring sebagai media alternatif bagi jemaat untuk tetap beribadah dan terhubung, tanpa terhalang batasan geografis. Transformasi ini mendorong refleksi ulang terhadap konsep…

Kesiapan Generasi Muda dalam Kepemimpinan Gereja di Era Posmodern
type: item
description: This research aims to analyze the readiness of the younger generation to assume leadership roles in local churches in the postmodern era and understand how postmodern culture influences their leadership patterns. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method, incorporating a literature study approach and in-depth interviews, to examine the factors that support and hinder the leadership of the younger generation in the church. The research results show that the younger generation tends to adopt a more horizontal and inclusive leadership model than the more traditional hierarchical approach. Additionally, utilizing technology and social media is crucial to their communication and leadership strategy. However, the influence of posmodern culture also brings challenges, especially in maintaining theological firmness and Biblical values amidst growing moral relativism. Therefore, this research emphasizes the importance of support and guidance from more experienced church leaders, enabling the younger generation to balance cultural relevance with solid principles of faith. Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kesiapan generasi muda dalam mengambil peran ke-pemimpinan di gereja lokal di era posmodern, serta memahami bagaimana budaya posmodern mempengaruhi pola kepemimpinan mereka. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif des-kriptif dengan pendekatan studi literatur dan wawancara mendalam untuk mengkaji faktor-fak-tor yang mendukung dan menghambat kepemimpinan generasi muda di gereja. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa generasi muda cenderung mengadopsi model kepemimpinan yang lebih horizontal dan inklusif dibandingkan dengan pendekatan hierarkis yang lebih tradisional. Selain itu, pemanfaatan teknologi dan media sosial menjadi elemen penting dalam komunikasi dan strategi kepemimpinan mereka. Namun, pengaruh budaya posmodern juga membawa tantang-an, terutama dalam menjaga keteguhan teologis dan nilai-nilai Alkitabiah di tengah relativisme moral y…

Dari Rahim ke Sungai: Tafsir Teologis dan Gender atas Keutamaan Ibu dalam Keluaran 2:1–10
type: item
description: This study highlights the role of motherhood in Exodus 2:1–10 through a theological and gender-based exegetical approach. The story of Moses' rescue is often understood as divine intervention. Still, this study demonstrates that a network of women—Yochebed, Miriam, and Pharaoh’s daughter—strategically played a crucial role in resisting Pharaoh’s repressive system. Their decisions were expressions of maternal love and acts of defiance against injustice. By adopting feminist hermeneutics and narrative analysis, this study deconstructs the patriarchal bias in biblical interpretation that often diminishes the role of women in salvation history. Moreover, this research compares biblical motherhood with maternal practices in various cultures, affirming that motherhood is not merely a domestic function but also a social and spiritual strategy for shaping future generations. In this context, motherhood is about nurturing and prophetic leadership that contributes to social transformation. Thus, this study asserts that the role of mothers in biblical narratives should be reconstructed as a form of active spirituality with a broad impact on society. Abstrak Penelitian ini menyoroti peran keibuan dalam Keluaran 2:1–10 melalui pendekatan tafsir teologis dan gender. Kisah penyelamatan Musa sering kali dipahami sebagai intervensi ilahi, tetapi studi ini menunjukkan bahwa jaringan perempuan—Yokhebed, Miryam, dan putri Firaun—berperan strategis dalam menghadapi sistem represif Firaun. Keputusan-keputusan mereka bukan hanya ekspresi kasih, tetapi juga bentuk perlawanan terhadap ketidakadilan. Dengan mengadopsi hermeneutika feminis dan analisis naratif, penelitian ini membongkar bias patriarkal dalam tafsir biblika yang sering mengecilkan peran perempuan dalam sejarah keselamatan. Selain itu, penelitian ini membandingkan pola keibuan dalam Alkitab dengan praktik maternal di berbagai budaya, menegaskan bahwa keibuan bukan sekadar fungsi domestik, tetapi juga strategi sosial dan spiritu…

Strategi Misi Berbasis Digital dalam Masyarakat Pluralistik di Indonesia: Sebuah Pendekatan Antropologi Digital
type: item
description: This article employs a digital anthropology framework to explore effective digital engagement strategies for Christian missionary efforts within Indonesia’s pluralistic society. Indonesia’s diverse religious and cultural landscape, coupled with its high internet penetration rate (77% of the population in 2023), presents unique opportunities and challenges for disseminating the Gospel through digital platforms. The study aims to analyze digital behaviors across religious and cultural groups, evaluate cultural sensitivity in digital communication, and propose contextually adaptive strategies for mission work. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive methodology and systematic literature review, the research highlights three key strategies: personalizing Gospel messages through culturally tailored content on age- and culturally preferred platforms (e.g., Instagram for youth, WhatsApp for older demographics); enhancing digital literacy among missionaries to navigate global-local dynamics and ethical challenges; and collaborating with local influencers and faith communities to bridge cultural gaps and amplify authenticity. Findings underscore the necessity of integrating anthropological insights into digital mission strategies to avoid cultural homogenization and ensure respect for local identities. Addressing the research gap in culturally informed digital mission approaches, this article offers a holistic framework for churches and missionary organizations to foster inclusive, effective, and sustainable engagement in Indonesia’s pluralistic context. Abstrak Artikel ini menggunakan pendekatan antropologi digital untuk mengeksplorasi strategi keterlibatan digital yang efektif dalam upaya misi Kristen di tengah masyarakat pluralistik Indonesia.

Membangun Spiritualitas Kristen sebagai Resistensi terhadap Kecanduan Media Sosial dan Krisis Identitas Kaum Muda
type: item
description: The digital age has brought significant changes to human life, particularly among young people living in an era of unlimited information flow. Social media, while offering spaces for social networking and relationships, also brings negative impacts such as addiction, deterioration in the quality of social and spiritual relationships, and identity crises resulting from self-identity formation shaped by virtual standards. This reality indicates that Christian spirituality is beginning to be marginalized and replaced by instant values and false images constructed through social media. Young people are increasingly experiencing anxiety as a result of losing their sense of self. This study aims to formulate Christian spirituality as a form of resistance against social media addiction and identity crises. This study employed qualitative methods and adopted a literature review approach. The conclusions of this study indicate that Christian spirituality serves as a foundation for shaping self-identity amid the overwhelming digital tide. In addressing the impacts of social media addiction and identity crises, spirituality acts as a force of resistance against instant culture and digital narcissism. Therefore, spiritual education needs to be strategically integrated into digital faith formation to guide young people toward spiritual maturity and the steadfastness of Christian identity. Abstrak Era digital telah membawa perubahan signifikan dalam kehidupan manusia, terutama di kalangan kaum muda yang hidup dalam arus informasi tanpa batas. Media sosial, meskipun menawarkan ruang jejaring sosial dan relasi, juga menghadirkan dampak negatif berupa kecanduan, penurunan kualitas hubungan sosial dan rohani, serta krisis identitas akibat pencarian jati diri yang dibentuk oleh standar virtual. Realitas ini menunjukkan bahwa spiritualitas Kristen mulai terpinggirkan dan tergantikan oleh nilai-nilai instan dan citra palsu yang dikonstruksi melalui media sosial. Fenomena meningkatnya ke…

Basilides dan Misteri Salib Palsu: Sebuah Telaah Apologetis terhadap Penyimpangan Keselamatan Kristiani
type: item
description: Basilides deconstructed the crucifixion narrative, stating that Simon of Cyrene was the one crucified. This view shares similarities with Islam and has become the basis for polemicists' anti-biblical propaganda. Basilides' view is based on a Gnostic dualism that separates spirit from matter and views Jesus as a divine being who could not have suffered physically. The purpose of this study is to examine the narrative similarities between Basilides' teachings and Islamic views. Furthermore, it reveals Basilides' view as a deviation (inconsistency) from the story of the cross and the Gnostic-based theology of salvation. This study uses theological literature, church history, and apologetics to prove that Basilides' teachings on the cross constitute a historical and theological distortion. The paper asserts that Basilides' teachings reduce the meaning of the cross to an illusory symbol and contrast it with the inclusive, historical, and grace-based foundation of Christian salvation. This paper provides a theological defense of the authentic doctrine of the crucifixion within the Christian faith. It demonstrates the serious nature of the deviations from teachings such as those taught. Abstrak Basilides melakukan dekonstruksi kisah penyaliban yang menyatakan Simon dari Kirene-lah yang disalibkan. Pandangan ini memiliki kemiripan dengan Islam dan menjadi dasar bagi para polemikus untuk melakukan propaganda anti kisah salib Alkitab. Pandangan Basilides ini berbasis dualistik gnostik yang memisahkan roh dari materi, dan memandang Yesus sebagai makhluk ilahi yang tidak mungkin menderita secara fisik. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengkaji kemiripan naratif antara ajaran Basilides dan pandangan Islam. Selain itu mengungkap pandangan Basilides sebagai sebuah penyimpangan (inkonsistensi) terhadap kisah salib dan teologi keselamatan berbasis pemikiran gnostik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan studi literatur teologis, sejarah gereja, dan apologetis untuk membuktikan ajaran Ba…

type: item
description: The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of religious values on the elements of loyalty and the quality of human resources at SMTK Berita Hidup Solo.

Beyond Stewardship: Rekonseptualisasi Praksis Kepemimpinan Gereja yang Generous melalui Perspektif Trinitarian
type: item
description: This article explores the reconceptualization of church leadership practice by proposing a “generous leadership” paradigm that goes beyond traditional understandings of stewardship. Drawing on a Trinitarian theological perspective, this article presents a novel conceptual framework that transcends conventional stewardship approaches, which often adopt a transactional approach. This study examines how perichoresis—a reciprocal relationship of giving among the Persons of the Trinity—can serve as a model for a more transformative, relational, and empowering approach to church leadership. The analysis shows that the "generous leadership" model, based on a Trinitarian view, changes how we think about church leadership and enhances our understanding of the church's role, community, and mission today. Abstrak Artikel ini membahas cara baru dalam memikirkan praktik kepemimpinan gereja dengan mengusulkan paradigma "generous leadership" yang melampaui pemahaman tradisional tentang pengelolaan. Dengan menggunakan pandangan teologi Trinitarian, artikel ini menawarkan cara baru untuk memahami kepemimpinan gereja yang lebih dari sekadar pendekatan tradisional yang bersifat transaksional. Penelitian ini menyelidiki bagaimana perichoresis—hubungan saling memberi antara Pribadi-pribadi Trinitas—dapat menjadi contoh untuk cara baru dalam kepemimpinan gereja yang lebih mengubah, berhubungan, dan memberdayakan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa cara kepemimpinan yang murah hati, yang berasal dari pemahaman Trinitarian, tidak hanya mengubah cara kepemimpinan gereja tetapi juga memperdalam pemahaman tentang pelayanan, komunitas, dan misi gereja di zaman sekarang.

Bergereja di Sekeliling Meja: Sebuah Konstruksi Eklesiologi pada Bingkai Teologi Makan
type: item
description: Food represents a significant theological concern that merits deeper scholarly investigation. It transcends its basic function as sustenance, encompassing complex cultural, religious, and social dimensions that shape both individual identity and communal life. This study seeks to articulate core premises surrounding the practice of communal meals and to advance a theology of food by examining the ideological and theological meanings embedded within the act of shared eating. Ultimately, it aims to construct an ecclesiological framework grounded in the values inherent in communal dining. Within this perspective, food ceases to function as a boundary or source of division; instead, it becomes a medium for cultivating and deepening ecclesial fellowship. Abstrak Salah satu isu teologis yang penting untuk ditelusuri lebih dalam adalah perihal makanan. Hal ini disebabkan karena makanan tidak hanya berdimensi pangan saja, tetapi memuat di dalamnya aspek budaya, agama, bahkan status sosial seseorang atau sekelompok orang. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengemukakan premis-premis utama dalam jamuan makan serta upaya membangun teologi makanan melalui eksplorasi makna ideologi-teologis jamuan makan bersama, hingga konstruksi eklesiologi dari nilai-nilai makan bersama. Makanan tidak lagi menjadi penghalang bagi komunitas, melainkan mempererat persekutuan (ecclesia).

Implikasi Penatalayanan Konseling Gerejawi terhadap Kedewasaan Rohani Jemaat: Sebuah Kajian Reflektif Efesus 4:13
type: item
description: A church shepherd has been providing church counseling, also known as pastoral counseling, since its inception. The increasing number of congregations in a church and the complexity of human life problems, especially in this modern era, make the demand for this counseling service one that a single pastor can no longer meet. Research conducted qualitatively through literature reviews, journals, and interviews with limited respondents consisting of God's servants who are church counselors, pastors, and general church congregations in the city of Jakarta resulted in a recommendation that today's church needs to form an adequate counseling service team to meet the needs of the diverse congregation while providing a guideline regarding what kind of counseling stewardship can be a reference for starting this counseling service so that it is hoped that it can help build the spiritual maturity of the congregation according to Ephesians 4:13. Abstrak Konseling gerejawi, atau yang sering disebut juga konseling pastoral, sejak awal merupakan bentuk layanan yang dilakukan oleh seorang gembala gereja. Semakin besar jumlah jemaat sebuah gereja dan kompleksnya permasalahan hidup manusia, terutama di zaman modern ini, tentunya membuat permintaan layanan konseling ini tidak bisa lagi dipenuhi hanya oleh seorang gembala atau ibu gembala saja. Penelitian yang dilakukan secara kualitatif, baik melalui kajian literatur, jurnal, maupun wawancara dengan responden terbatas yang terdiri dari para pelayan Tuhan yang menjadi konselor gereja, gembala, maupun jemaat gereja umum di kota Jakarta, menghasilkan sebuah rekomendasi bahwa gereja di masa kini perlu membentuk sebuah tim layanan konseling yang memadai untuk memenuhi kebutuhan para jemaat yang beragam sekaligus memberikan sebuah panduan terkait penatalayanan konseling seperti apa yang bisa menjadi acuan untuk memulai layanan konseling ini sehingga harapannya bisa membantu membangun kedewasaan rohani jemaat sesuai Efesus 4:13.

Membangun Kepemimpinan Kristen Kontekstual dalam Melayani Homo Digitalis di Ruang Virtual
type: item
description: The development of digital technology has created a new generation known as homo digitalis, that is, humans who live, think, and interact in virtual spaces. The Church, as a community of faith, faces significant challenges in reaching and serving this generation, especially regarding leadership that can understand the digital context both theologically and pastorally. Christian leadership often fails to adapt to the participatory, fast-paced, and interactive nature of homo digitalis. This phenomenon highlights a gap between the current church leadership model and the spiritual needs of the faithful in the digital age. This study aims to formulate a contextual and relevant paradigm of Christian leadership in serving homo digitalis in virtual spaces. The method used is a qualitative approach with a literature review. The conclusions of this study indicate that the digital human and the transformation of faith relationships in virtual spaces demand that the church understand the changing ways of believing in the digital age. The limitations of traditional Christian leadership in serving the digital human present a significant challenge, especially when outdated approaches fail to meet the spiritual needs of the digital generation. Therefore, incarnational spirituality as the foundation of digital pastoral leadership becomes an important foundation for contextual Christian leadership in the virtual space. Thus, the church can become a virtual space that remains holy and transformative for digital humans. Abstrak Perkembangan teknologi digital telah menciptakan generasi baru yang dikenal sebagai homo digitalis, yakni manusia yang hidup, berpikir, dan berinteraksi dalam ruang virtual. Gereja sebagai komunitas iman menghadapi tantangan besar dalam menjangkau dan melayani generasi ini, terutama dalam hal relevansi kepemimpinan yang mampu memahami konteks digital secara teologis dan pastoral. Kepemimpinan Kristen kerap kali tidak mampu menyesuaikan diri dengan karakter homo …

Dimensi Teologi Kovenan dalam Efesus 1:3: Kontribusinya terhadap Identitas dan Kehidupan Rohani Jemaat
type: item
description: This paper will examine the dimensions of covenant theology in Ephesians 1:3 and its contribution to the identity and spiritual life of the church. Covenant theology frames the relationship between God and humans through covenants that are interwoven throughout the biblical story. The covenant consists of the covenant of work, the covenant of grace, and the covenant of redemption. On the one hand, Ephesians 1:3 frames praise to God for all the spiritual blessings that believers receive in Jesus. Ephesians 1:3 can be considered from a covenantal perspective. The intersection can be found through the work of the cross of Jesus Christ, which led believers to receive these spiritual blessings. Through a qualitative approach, the author will explore the covenant dimension in Ephesians 1:3 and how it contributes to the identity and spiritual life of the church. The author states that Ephesians 1:3 in the covenant dimension contributes significantly to the stability of the identity and spiritual life of the church. This paper provides a new perspective on integrating covenant theology in Ephesians 1:3 as a framework for building the spiritual identity and spiritual life of the church. Abstrak Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menelusuri dimensi teologi kovenan dalam Efesus 1:3 dan kontribusinya terhadap identitas dan kehidupan rohani jemaat. Teologi kovenan membingkai hubungan antara Allah dengan manusia melalui kovenan yang terjalin di sepanjang kisah Alkibat. Kovenan tersebut terdiri dari kovenan kerja, kovenan anugerah, dan kovenan penebusan. Di satu sisi, Efesus 1:3 membingkai pujian kepada Allah atas segala berkat rohani yang diterima orang percaya di dalam Yesus. Efesus 1:3 dapat diperhatikan melalui perspektif kovenan. Persinggungan tersebut dapat ditemukan melalui karya salib Yesus Kristus yang membawa orang percaya menerima berkat rohani tersebut. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif, penulis akan menelusuri dimensi kovenan dalam Efesus 1:3 dan bagaimana kontribusinya terhadap…
