Misteri Kristus Dan Kristus Pemersatu Ciptaan Dalam Teologia Filosofis Maximus The Confessor: Sebuah Tinjauan Kritis Pranoto, Minggus Minarto The incarnation of Christ is the manifestation of God’s love for the creation. God showed the peak of His love and grace in and through the incarnation of Jesus Christ. Through Jesus Christ the Logos, the everything of all good is united and the whole of the creation can achieve the unity with God or experience deification (theosis). The mystery of the incarnation of Christ was revealed byhypostasis union of the two natures of Jesus Christ. The unity of divine and human will (dyotheletism) of Jesus Christ becomes the basis of the unity between God and all creation. The incarnation of Christ, which is the manifestation of God’s love, forms the ultimate aim of the everything of all good. Eventhough, the second person of the Triune God became human being, but it did not mean that there was not secret anymore of the mystery of the incarnation of Jesus Christ. Human being knows the mystery as far it was revealed by God. The incarnation is still a mystery and it can not be explained completely by the mind of human being. In and through Jesus Christ, all creation is integrated into God’s activity or energy, but not with His essence. Maximus can give the basis of the philosophical theology when he discusses the Chalcedonian christology; and his philosophical theology may be able to give a basis for Christian praxis to overcome the problems such as ecology crisis, gender injustice, and fight for human rights.

Liturgi Yang Sempurna Berpartisipasi Dalam Kehidupan: Tinjauan Kritis atas Praktik Berliturgi di Gereja dari Perspektif Trinitas Gunawan, Hizkia Anugrah In the church, perfect liturgy is understood as worship’s condition without disruption or mistake. In reality, this perspective often makes some opportunity to discriminate some people from the worship. Research about liturgy, both from theologians, liturgy workers, and scripture text, indicates that the “real” perfect liturgy happens when people participate in daily life. This notion is same as the spirituality of Trinity. This spirituality explains that participation is the form of completeness or perfect God. Therefore, Trinitarian liturgy should show perfect liturgy as active participation from all people in their daily life so that can bring a goodness for others people. Key Words: worship, liturgy, perfect, Trinity, participation, church, daily life.

The Bread and the Unleavened Bread: Elements of the Eucharist of the Past in Today’s Church Roti dan Roti Tak-Beragi: Elemen Perjamuan Masa Lalu yang Masih Berlaku hingga Kini Rachman, Rasid unleavened bread artos lehem azumos matzah Easter feast sacrifices daily food Roti roti tak-beragi artos lehem azumos matzah hari raya Paska Hari raya Roti Tak-beragi There is a narrative in the word. The narrative tells the way of life. The way of life draws the theology of society in daily life. One of the people daily life is a meal. A meal is not only the need of life but also the social rite. One element of the meal is bread. The Bible tells about two kinds of bread, namely: the bread and the unleavened bread. Those two kinds of bread motivated me to find out how the Bible distinguishes both the meaning and practice of those bread. The use of the bread and the unleavened bread narrate the society daily life and ritual both ancient Israel and the Christianity of the first century around the Mediterranean. The Bible gives that narrative to us. I search both word and practice of the bread and the unleavened bread with the meal of the Jews, as being told by the Old Testament and the New Testament especially the early Christianity. The point of this article is the deserve element of the Eucharist of the Church today: the bread or the unleavened bread. Above all, even though the tradition of the Church told one of those elements, we should open our mind to contextualization. Ada narasi di dalam kata. Narasi menyampaikan pandangan hidup. Pandangan hidup melukiskan teologi masyarakat melalui keseharian. Salah satu keseharian manusia adalah makan. Makan dapat merupakan kebutuhan hidup, namun makan juga dapat merupakan ritus perjamuan. Salah satu elemen makan adalah roti. Alkitab mengisahkan dua jenis roti, yaitu roti dan roti tak-beragi. Hal ini mendorong saya untuk menelusuri pandangan Alkitab akan roti dan roti-tak-beragi. Penggunaan roti atau roti tak-beragi menarasikan keseharian dan ritual masyarakat Israel kuno dan kekristenan sekitar Mediterania. Alkitab menyimpan narasi itu untuk kita. Saya coba menelusuri kata dan praktik penggunaan roti atau roti tak-beragi dalam perjamuan-perjamuan umat Yahudi, baik Perjanjian Lama maupun Perjanjian Baru, dan kekristenan awal. Muara dari tulisan ini adalah elemen perjamuan yang sepantasnya bagi gereja masa kini: apakah roti atau apakah roti tak-beragi. Sekalipun warisan mengarahkan penggunaan elemen perjamuan, namun keterbukaan dan pengembangan atas elemen warisan adalah seharusnya sikap gereja dalam upaya kontekstualisasi.

This article concludes that the implication of the image of God rejects the alienation and domestication of God’s image. Rancang-bangun pemahaman gambar Allah dipengaruhi oleh dua peristiwa penting yang dialami oleh bangsa Israel: penjajahan di Mesir dan pengasingan di Babilonia. Kedua pengaruh ini problematis ketika kita mengabsolutkan keduanya untuk membaca kisah penciptaan manusia di Kejadian 1.

Spiritual Companionship: Anam Ċara as the Lost Practical Art in the Contemporary Church? Spiritual Companionship: Anam ċara sebagai Seni Praktika yang Hilang di Gereja Kontemporer? Sasongko, Nindyo art of practice spiritual guidance spiritual friendship anam ċara Seni praktika Pembimbingan spiritual Persahabatan spiritual Anam cara In this article, I propose the theme of friendship to be an ecclesial practice, a practice adapted from “spiritual direction.” I will approach from different perspective, especially from various Protestant seminaries such as pastoral to clinical pastoral care. Therefore, I propose “spiritual direction” or “spiritual companion.” I will use the philia concept, which is love between two (or more) people who are nonsexual and non-erotic. This love manifests between two friends who are committed to walking together, side by side and looking at one vision and walking together to reach that vision. By borrowing the anam ċara idea, “friend of the soul” from the Celtic-Irish tradition, “spiritual companionship” can become a habitus in Indonesian Christian congregations in order to increase the spirituality of church members. Dalam artikel ini, saya mengusung tema persahabatan untuk menjadi praktik eklesial, sebuah praktik yang diadaptasi dari “pembimbingan spiritual” (spiritual direction). Pendekatan yang akan saya tawarkan tampak berbeda dari yang ditawarkan oleh berbagai sekolah teologi Protestan seperti, ilmu pendampingan pastoral sampai pastoral klinis. Sebab itu, saya hendak mengusulkan “pembimbingan spiritual” (spiritual direction) atau “persahabatan spiritual” (spiritual companion). Saya akan menggunakan konsep philia, yakni cinta antar-dua orang (atau lebih) yang non-seksual dan non-erotis. Cinta ini mewujud di antara dua sahabat yang berkomitmen berjalan bersama-sama, saling berdampingan dan menatap ke satu visi dan berjalan bersama demi menggapai visi itu. Dengan meminjam ide anam ċara, “sahabat jiwa” dari tradisi Keltik-Irlandia, maka “persahabatan spiritual” (spiritual companionship) dapat menjadi habitus di jemaat- jemaat Kristen Indonesia guna semakin mekarnya spiritualitas warga gereja.

Can the Church have a Court? Bolehkah Gereja Berpengadilan? Aritonang, Jan Sihar history church to go to court ethics justice sejarah gereja berpengadilan etika keadilan The Christian Church, throughout its history, has involved in various kinds of cases with multiple variants. This paper presents a historical explanation, in a limited way, the church’s journey with the issue of the court with various considerations from the fieldsof ethics, ecclesiology, and pastoral. In the end, I argued that the church needed - even needed - to bring several cases to court, such as criminal acts, including misappropriation of positions, including financial and asset matters. Or on issues of struggle to uphold justice, human rights, discrimination, intolerance, the church must process it to the court. Gereja Kristen sepanjang sejarahnya telah terlibat dalam berbagai macam perkara dengan berbagai varian. Makalah ini merupakan pemaparan historis, secara terbatas, perjalanan gereja dengan persoalan pengadilan dengan berbagai pertimbangan dari bidang etika, eklesiologi, dan pastoral. Pada akhirnya, saya berargumen bahwa gereja perlu – bahkan perlu - memperkarakan sejumlah hal ke pengadilan, seperti tindak kriminal, termasuk penyelewengan jabatan, termasuk menyangkut keuangan dan aset. Atau terhadap isu-isu perjuangan menegakkan keadilan, hak asasi manusia, diskriminasi, intoleransi, gereja harus memprosesnya ke pengadilan.

Theological or Political? The Search for Meaning of the Historical Struggle in the Nicene Constantinople Creed Teologis atau Politis? Pencarian Makna Pergulatan Historis dalam Pengakuan Iman Nicea-Konstantinopel Jonar, Radius Aditiya theology politic Nicene-Constantinople creed church and state church fathers Teologi politik pengakuan iman Nicea-Konstantinopel gereja dan negara Bapa-bapa gereja Nicene-Constantinople creed is usually understood only as a result of theological opinion struggle from our church fathers in the past and ignored political power that influenced it. Collaboration between theological opinion and political power in making process has made Nicene-Constantinople creed become unique and makes us as modern church generations in this day need to question the meaning of the present political power that usually influences church decisions to give benefit for their political interest. Pengakuan iman Nicea-Konstantinopel sering dipahami hanya sebagai hasil dari pergulatan pemikiran teologis dari para bapa gereja kita di masa lalu dan mengabaikan adanya kuasa politik yang memengaruhinya. Perpaduan antara pemikiran teologis dan kuasa politis dalam proses penyusunannya membuat pengakuan iman Nicea- Konstantinopel menjadi unik dan membuat kita sebagai generasi gereja modern di masa kini perlu mempertanyakan arti kehadiran kuasa politik yang sering memengaruhi hasil- hasil keputusan gereja untuk memberikan keuntungan bagi kepentingan politis mereka.

A Theological Reflection on COVID-19: Suffering Christ and the Paradigm of Discipleship in Mark 9:36-37 Kristanto, David Discipleship Theological Reflection COVID-19 Suffering Gospel of Mark This article seeks to answer the question, “Where is God in the midst of suffering?”, through reflecting on the paradigm of discipleship in Mark 9:36-37. Welcoming a child is a parabolic action done by Christ to show that the way to be the greatest is to welcome the weakest or to be the servant of all. A child is used as a paradigm due to his or her low status in the Greco-Roman society. Children had no right, seen as properties rather than persons, and thus equated to slaves. Therefore, welcoming a child means welcoming the weakest of the society, and doing so means to welcome Christ himself and the one who sent him. The suffering caused by COVID-19 makes the whole world suffer, yet it also creates a bigger gap between the rich and the poor, the strong and the weak. A reflection on the paradigm invites Christians to side with the weakest and those who are in need, hoping that the kingdom of God will be ushered into this suffering world.

The Holy Spirit, the Breath of the Vulnerable and the Marginal: The Covid-19 Pandemic and the Poor in Indonesia Roh Kudus, Napas Sang Rentan dan Marginal: Pandemi Covid-19 dan Orang Miskin di Indonesia Verdino, Timotius Covid-19 pandemic poor vulnerable marginal breath Holy Spirit Pandemi Covid-19 Orang Miskin Rentan Marjinal Napas Roh Kudus This article is a contextual theology regarding the poor in Indonesia in the Covid-19 Pandemic situation. I will start this paper by presenting the poverty situation and poor people’s experience of injustice in Indonesia during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Then, I will discuss the biblical review of God’s will for justice for the poor and discuss the perspective of liberation theology on poverty by Aloysius Pieris. After that, both discussions will be placed in the conversation with John 20:22. In the end, this paper will conclude a contextual theological construction of the Holy Spirit, as the breath of the vulnerable and the marginalized people who seek for justice in the Covid-19 Pandemic situation. Tulisan ini merupakan sebuah konstruksi teologi kontekstual mengenai orang miskin di Indonesia dalam situasi Pandemi Covid-19. Saya akan memulai tulisan ini dengan menampilkan situasi kemiskinan dan ketidakadilan yang dialami orang miskin di Indonesia selama Pandemi Covid-19. Kemudian, saya akan membahas tinjauan biblis mengenai kehendak Allah akan keadilan bagi orang miskin dan juga perspektif teologi pembebasan tentang kemiskinan oleh Aloysius Pieris. Setelah itu, saya akan mendialogkan pandangan biblis dan teologis tersebut dengan Yohanes 20:22. Pada akhirnya, tulisan ini akan ditutup dengan konstruksi teologi kontekstual tentang Roh Kudus, sebagai napas sang rentan dan marginal yang memperjuangkan keadilan dalam situasi pandemi Covid-19.

When the Ordinary People Read Sodom: An Intercultural Hermeneutics of Sodom’s Story in Genesis 19 Ketika Awam Membaca Sodom: Intercultural Hermeneutics terhadap Kisah Sodom dalam Kejadian 19 Setyono, Vania Sharleen Homosexual Genesis Intercultural Hermeneutics Old Testament Sodom Homoseksual Kejadian Intercultural Hermeneutics Perjanjian Lama Sodom It is profoundly known that in Indonesia, Genesis 19:1-19 is used to legitimate the movement against homosexual, to discriminate and abuse them. For years, scholars have shaped two different major perspectives in interpreting the passage as a form of God’s punishment towards Sodom. One take side against homosexuals and conclude that the passage speaks about God’s punishment of homosexuality since it is counted as sin while the others take side on homosexuals and agreed that the passage was merely a violation of hospitality. This article expands the aforementioned discourse and broaden the horizon by exploring a new thought based on qualitative research with an intercultural hermeneutics approach developed by Hans de Wit. Along with such an approach, the focus group discussion with ordinary readers resulted that the problem mentioned in Genesis 19 is a matter of patriarchy issues. Di Indonesia, kisah Sodom dalam Kejadian 19:1-19 selalu dijadikan legitimasi untuk menolak eksistensi homoseksual, yang berujung pada diskriminasi dan kekerasan terhadap kelompok homoseksual. Berbagai wacana tafsir yang dikembangkan oleh para ahli tafsir terbagi menjadi dua kelompok besar dalam melihat penghukuman kota Sodom: (1) kelompok yang kontra homoseksual melihatnya sebagai hukuman atas dosa homoseksualitas dan (2) kelompok yang pro-homoseksual mengatakan karena pelanggaran nilai hospitalitas. Tulisan ini mencoba untuk memperluas wacana tafsir yang sudah ada tanpa menafikan tafsiran-tafsiran terdahulu dengan melakukan penelitian menggunakan metode Intercultural Hermeneutics dari Hans de Wit. Penelitian kualitatif dilakukan dengan focus group discussion di beberapa kelompok pembaca awam, penelitian menemukan bahwa isu patriarki juga bermain dalam persoalan penghukuman kisah Sodom.

An Analysis of the Role of the Conscience in the Pauline Letters and Christian Ethics Analisis Peran Hati Nurani dalam Surat-surat Paulus dan Etika Kristen Subandrijo, Bambang sunedēsis conscience Christian ethics morality being yourself ethical egoism Pauline Letters sunedēsis suara hati etika Kristen moralitas menjadi diri sendiri egoisme etis surat-surat Paulus This article explores the meaning of conscience (sunedēsis) in the Pauline letters in relation to Christian ethics. I have argued that if humans act based on their conscience, without depending on the judgment of others, they will be their own self. Obedience to conscience is an ethical egoism that starts from conscience, because its ethical actions are rooted in moral truth which becomes a moral obligation. The understanding of conscience in the Pauline letters show that decision making does not depend on others, but depends on conscious personal decisions. By doing so, someone appears as him or herself who has a strong personality and a great-hearted person. By taking a decision based on conscience, man will act carefully, prudently and be conscious to take responsibility for his or her actions. Artikel ini menelusuri makna suara hati (sunedēsis) di dalam surat-surat Paulus dalam kaitannya dengan etika Kristen. Saya berargumen bahwa jika manusia bertindak dengan berpedoman pada keputusan suara hatinya, tanpa tergantung pada penilaian pihak lain, ia benar-benar menjadi dirinya sendiri. Ketaatan terhadap suara hati adalah egoisme etis positif, yaitu egoisme etis yang bertolak dari suara hati, dan tindakan etisnya bersumber pada kebenaran moral yang menjadi kewajiban moral. Pemahaman dalam surat Paulus menunjukkan bahwa pengambilan keputusan tidak tergantung pada orang lain, melainkan keputusan pribadi secara sadar. Dengan demikian, ketika seseorang tampil sebagai dirinya sendiri yang memiliki kepribadian teguh dan berjiwa besar. Dengan keputusan berdasarkan suara hati, seseorang akan bertindak dengan cermat, hati-hati dan sadar untuk mempertanggungjawabkan tindakannya itu.

The Phenomenon of Christian Prince and Ustaz Charis Bangun Samudra: The Defenders of the Faith? Fenomena Christian Prince dan Ustaz Charis Bangun Samudra: Pembela Kebenaran Iman? Wilar, Abraham Silo Construction Image Multi-discipline Apologetics Religious Phobia konstruksi citra multi-disiplin apologetika fobia agama The  phenomenon of  Christian Prince  and Ustaz Charis Bangun Samudra has generated a  specific image of the profiles  as the defenders of the faith as the constructed image of the two that is popularly and publicly known.  This article investigates the image with a multidisciplinary methodology to show the multiple images that are communicated by the phenomenon. This article addresses revivalism of religious apologetic of both communities, religious phobia, Christianophobia, and  Islamophobia in the communities to argue that the image cannot be justified theologically since it contradicts the religious ethics of the theological approach employed in this article.   Keywords:  Construction,  Image,  Multi-discipline,  Apologetics, and  Religious Phobia Abstrak Fenomena Christian  Prince  dan Ustaz Charis  Bangun  Samudra membentuk suatu  konstruksi  citra  yang  sangat  spesifik  bagi  masing-masing  tokoh  tersebut. Konstruksi  citra tersebut adalah  Pembela  Kebenaran Iman  (PKI). Tulisan  ini menginvestigasi citra  tersebut dengan  menggunakan  suatu  pendekatan  multidisiplin. Dengan  menggunakan  pendekatan  tersebut,  tulisan  ini berargumen bahwa citra Pembela  Kebenaran Iman  (PKI) tersebut bukan satu-satunya hal yang  dikomunikasikan  oleh fenomena tersebut.  Masih  banyak  citra  lain  yang muncul  dari fenomena tersebut.  Dengan  argumen  tersebut,  lebih  lanjut,  saya mengajukan  tesis  bahwa  citra  Pembela Kebenaran Iman tersebut tidak  dapat  dibenarkan  secara  teologis karena bertentangan dengan prinsip religious ethics yang ada di dalam pendekatan teologi yang  digunakan  oleh artikel  ini. Artikel ini mendeskripsikan  revivalisme apologetika relijius di komunitas Kristen dan Islam, dan religious phobia, yaitu,  Islamophobia dan Christianophobia, sebagai konten utama dari fenomena tersebut dan yang memperlihatkan persoalan teologis dari citra tersebut.

Becoming Public Congregation: Being Church as Missional, Relational, and Incarnasional in the Public Space Menjadi Jemaat Publik: Menggereja Secara Misional, Relasional, dan Inkarnasional di Ruang Publik Pattianakotta, Hariman Public congregation church missional relational incarnational public space Jemaat publik gereja misional relasional inkarnasional ruang publik Being church in the world is a way of life for church that is determined by its DNA and God’s design. This article offers the metaphor for a church in the world called “public congregation.” It is characterized by three dimensions—missional, relational, and incarnational. This article uses Joas Adiprasetya’s concept of perichoresis in conversation with Leonard Sweet’s thoughts on the missional, relational, and incarnational (MRI) church. The conversation is further extended to include the metaphoric approach by Donald Messer to argue for the relevance of public congregation as a metaphor for church life and orientation toward the world. Panggilan menjadi jemaat publik merupakan jalan hidup menggereja yang sesuai dengan DNA dan desain Allah atas gereja di dalam dunia. Karena itu, dalam artikel ini, saya menawarkan metafora “jemaat publik” bagi jemaatjemaat untuk menerjemahkan dirinya sebagai gereja yang misional, relasional, dan inkarnasional dalam ruang publik. Untuk menjelaskan tawaran ini, saya akan mengurai pandangan mengenai gereja dan dunia dalam bingkai trinitasperikhoresis dari Joas Adiprasetya dan mengelaborasi pemikiran Leonard Sweet mengenai gereja yang misional, relasional, dan inkarnasional (MRI). Kemudian saya akan membaca jemaat dari perspektif ekologis dalam studi- studi kongregasi, lalu dengan pendekatan metaforik dari Donald Messer, saya akan mendialogkan pemikiran Adiprasetya dan Sweet untuk menawarkan konstruksi saya mengenai jemaat publik.

Protestant Church in the West Timor during the Nederlandsch Zendeling Genootschap, 1820-1860: A Study of History and its Form Gereja Protestan di Timor Barat pada Masa Nederlandsch Zendeling Genootschap, 1820-1860: Suatu Kajian Mengenai Sejarah dan Bentuknya Jacob, Fransico de Ch. A. Protestant Church NZG West Timor Gereja Protestan NZG Timor Barat This article aims to describe and analyze - as comprehensively and objectively as possible - how the history of the Protestant Church in West Timor, especially during the Nederlandsch Zendeling Genootschap (1820-1860), took place. The results obtained clearly show that the Protestant Church continues to experience growth despite various challenges. One notable thing is that the growth of the Protestant Church in West Timor during the NZG period was not only due to the works of European missionaries but also because of the work of local people, both men, women, adults, and children. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis – sekomprehensif dan seobjektif mungkin – bagaimana Sejarah Gereja Protestan di Timor Barat, khususnya pada masa Nederlandsch Zendeling Genootschap (1820-1860) berlangsung. Hasil yang didapat sangat jelas menunjukkan bahwa Gereja Protestan di Timor Barat pada masa NZG terus mengalami pertumbuhan, terlepas dari berbagai tantangan yang dihadapi. Satu hal yang penting dicatat adalah bahwa pertumbuhan Gereja Protestan di Timor Barat pada masa NZG tidak hanya disebabkan usaha para misionaris Eropa, melainkan juga karena pekerjaan orangorang lokal, baik laki-laki, perempuan, orang dewasa, maupun anak-anak.

The Story of Luth and the Crimes of Sodomites: A Cross-Textual of the Qur’an and the Bible Kisah Luth (Lot) dan Kejahatan Kaum Sodom: Suatu Perbandingan Lintas Tekstual dalam Al-Qur'an dan Alkitab Kristianto, Andreas Listijabudi, Daniel K Story of Luth Christian and Islam Cross-textual Homosexuality Hermeneutic Kisah Luth Islam Kristen Cross textual Homoseksualitas Hermeneutika The story of Luth (read: Lot) is usually read as a text about homosexuality in both Christianity and Islam. By exploring a cross-textual reading from leading Muslim interpreters in Indonesia, Hamka with Al Azhar Juzu Commentary, Quraish Shihab with Al Misbah Commentary and interpretation of the Ministry of Religion, this article unveils the hidden meaning of Luth’s story, which today’s readers often overlook, especially concerning the text of the Qur’an, namely Surah Asy-Syu’ara 26: 166-175, Surah Al-Naml 27: 54-59 and Surah Al-Ankabut 29: 28-30. Through a cross-textual reading, the article unveils the new meaning of the story, i.e., the crimes of the Sodomites not only related to sexual violence and hostility, but also, with the terms al-fahisyah (abomination), al-sayyiat (crime), al-musrifun (people who are excessive), al-’adun (people who transgress), al-jahl (ignorance), and alkhaba’is (bad deeds), which are the accumulation of various kinds of crimes, crimes, and abominations degrading humanity. The cross-textual reading between the interpreters of the Qur’an and the Bible provides the viewpoints, insights, and values in the cross-textual hermeneutical encounter of different religions, traditions, and scriptures. Kisah Luth (baca: Lot) biasanya menjadi rujukan untuk berbicara tentang homoseksualitas baik di dalam agama Kristen maupun Islam. Dengan eksplorasi pembacaan secara lintas tekstual dari mufasir Islam terkemuka di Indonesia yaitu Hamka dengan Tafsir Al Azhar Juzu, Quraish Shihab dengan Tafsir Al Misbah, dan Tafsir Kementerian Agama, artikel ini akan menggali makna tersembunyi dari kisah Luth yang sering kali terlewatkan dari perhatian pembaca masa kini, khususnya berkaitan dengan teks Al-Qur’an yaitu Surah Asy-Syu’ara 26: 166-175, Surah Al-Naml 27: 54-59 dan Surah Al-Ankabut 29: 28-30. Makna baru dalam tulisan ini adalah kejahatan kaum Sodom tidak hanya menyangkut soal kekerasan seksual dan ketidakramahan (inhospitality) saja, tetapi juga berkaitan dengan istilah al-fahisyah (kekejian), al-sayyiat (kejahatan), al-musrifun (orang yang berlebihan), al-‘adun (orang yang melampaui batas), al-jahl (kebodohan), dan al-khaba’is (perbuatan buruk), yang merupakan akumulasi dari berbagai macam kejahatan, kriminalitas dan kekejian yang merendahkan martabat kemanusiaan. Dari pembacaan lintas tekstual antara mufasir Al-Qur’an dan Alkitab, kita mendapatkan cara pandang, wawasan, dan nilai-nilai yang membangun dalam perjumpaan cross- textual hermeneutic antara agama, tradisi, dan kitab suci yang berbeda.

The Interior of the Church Building as a Liturgical Space that Reveals God’s Work Tata Ruang dalam Gereja yang Secara Liturgis Menarasikan Karya Allah Rachman, Rasid house of God ladder liturgical space narrative water witness arena arena rumah Allah tangga narasi air saksi tata ruang The explanation of the church building as a liturgical space in this article will focus on two things. First, the area that separates the sacred from the secular world. The separated place points towards the meaning of the church that reveals God‘s presence in the world. The church is not just alive but also gives meaning to the whole life of the entire creation. Second, the celebration room that narrates God‘s works in history. As a liturgical area, the church building uses several metaphors to tell about God‘s works, for example, the gate of heaven, the pregnant mother, and the sailing ship. This article argues that the interior of the liturgical space narrates the church‘s view on God and God‘s creation. Further, this article emphasizes for the importance of the liturgical space as a reflection of the church theology by using the ritual, theological, and anthropological views of the church‘s interior space. Paparan tentang bangunan gereja sebagai area liturgi berikut ini akan berfokus pada dua hal. Pertama, area yang memisahkan dunia sakral dan dunia keseharian. Area terpisah mengungkapkan keberadaan gereja yang menyatakan kehadiran Allah di dunia. Gereja bukan hanya hidup di dunia, tetapi juga memberikan makna bagi seluruh kehidupan segala makhluk. Kedua, ruang selebrasi yang menarasikan karya Allah sepanjang sejarah. Sebagai area liturgi, bangunan gereja menggunakan metafora untuk menarasikan karya Allah, misalnya: pintu gerbang sorga, Sang Bunda mengandung, dan biduk berlayar. Argumentasi artikel ini adalah interior ruang ibadah merefleksikan teologi gereja dengan menggunakan pendekatan ritual, teologi, dan antropologi, artikel ini memperlihatkan penting ruang liturgi sebagai refleksi dari teologi gereja.

Utilizing Postcolonial Theory in Christian Education Elraphoma, Erich von Marthin Postcolonial subaltern theory Religious Education Christian Education Critical Thinking Postcolonial study is a method for examining a social problem or issue. It frequently uses the term subaltern to refer to groups marginalized in the social system by a hegemonic power for specific reasons, such as social class, religion, gender, race, language, and culture. The complexity of colonial effects obscures the extent to which colonialism has influenced our perspective, philosophy, and knowledge, such as regulations, policies, politics, and even our educational system that oppress others, the subaltern. This essay employs a postcolonial perspective (the subaltern theory) to demonstrate who and how people are marginalized within society’s system. Subaltern theory evolves into a way of thinking that decolonizes all spheres of life, including religious education. Furthermore, using Liam Gearon’s analysis, which examined the legal framework, educational system, and curriculum for religious education in Britain, and the marginalization within Britain’s religious education system or curriculum. This article emphasizes the need for Christian education to encourage awareness and critical thinking to change the external environment of marginalization. The author argues that subaltern theory enables Christian religious education to examine its curriculum and content to ensure that it does not perpetuate oppression but fosters critical thinking that results in in-depth reflection and uninhibited creativity to address social and theological issues.

A Public Theological Response to Gender-based and Sexual Violence in Indonesia Elraphoma, Erich von Marthin Sexuality sexual violence body women gender Imago Dei Spirit Gender-based and sexual violence is a public concern. In Indonesian society, three prominent entities (the state, the academy, and the religion) must provide their perspectives to overcome and prevent all forms of gender-based and sexual violence. On the one hand, the state exists via policies in the form of laws related to the prevention and solution to the problems of gender-based violence and sexual violence. As organizations and organisms, on the other hand, academia and religions contribute to the beliefs, concepts, and practices of gender and human sexuality. As a religious institution, the church’s action to prevent gender-based and sexual violence is also a form of self-criticism. The church may sanctify violence through gender-biased Bible reading or even commit gender-based violence and or sexual violence against its congregation members through its pastors. The church’s understanding of gender and sexual-based violence will allow the church to collaborate with the state to provide a sense of justice, security, and peace for all people, transcending the limitations of gender differences and sexuality. The church can offer theological concepts and practices that address and prevent gender-sexual-based violence both in church and in society in two ways: By reflecting on the experiences of victims of gender-based and sexual violence and by re-examining the root factors of violence in the history of the church and the church’s teaching on gender and sexuality, I propose that the church emphasize the diversity of God’s creation and the equal relations among humans beyond sexual and gender particularity by redefining the human body in Christian Theology that will serve as the foundation for resisting sexual violence and discrimination.

This article brings into dialogue these theories with the Pentecostal-Charismatic theology that focuses on the work and experience of the Holy Spirit. It further integrates practical and systematic theology. The author argues that the implementation of good governance is critical to regulating the organizational life of Pentecostal-Charismatic churches that emphasize work and experience with the Holy Spirit to manage a healthy and proper church life. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menekankan pentingnya konsep good governance atau kepemerintahan yang baik bagi gereja-gereja Pentakostal-Karismatik yang rentan sekali terkena skandal, terutama dalam kasus penyalahgunaan keuangan.

Metode tulisan ini menggunakan teori- teori good governance yang telah dikembangkan dalam konteks organisasi atau lembaga yang modern yang menekankan partisipasi, akuntabilitas, transparansi dan nilai-nilai otoritas yang mendemonstrasikan good governance untuk mendukung standar-standar utama dari tindakan dan perilaku para pemangku kepentingan. Teori-teori ini didialogkan dengan teologi Pentakostal-Karismatik yang menekankan pada karya dan pengalaman Roh Kudus. Kajian dalam tulisan ini dapat dimasukkan dalam integrasi teologi Praktika dan Sistematika.

The Kingdom of God as a Foundation for the Relationship between the Church and the World according to the Theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg Kerajaan Allah sebagai Landasan bagi Relasi antara Gereja dan Dunia dalam Teologi Wolfhart Pannenberg Haward, Ambrosius Setiadvento Love justice peace Kingdom of God eschatology futuristic Church God’s rule Wolfhart Pannenberg the world Dunia futuristik gereja Kasih Kerajaan Allah Wolfhart Pannenber eskatologi keadilan damai Wolfhart Pannenberg understood the eschatological dimension as an essential element in the discourse of the Kingdom of God. Unfortunately, this critical element is often missing in theological discourses in general that limit the theme of the Kingdom of God in the context of the end of time and disconnect it from everyday human life. This work aims to explain Pannenberg’s thoughts about the Kingdom of God, which is an eschatological realityand closely related to Christian participation in the world. The author argues that Pannenberg understood the Kingdom of God as a foundation for the church and that the hope for the realization of God’s Kingdom urged the church to embody the values of God’s Kingdom by engaging actively with the world today. Wolfhart Pannenberg memahami dimensi eskatologis sebagai unsur penting dalam diskursus tentang Kerajaan Allah. Sayangnya, unsur penting ini sering diabaikan dalam diskursus teologi pada umumnya yang membatasi tema tentang Kerajaan Allah dalam konteks akhir zaman dan memutuskannya dari kehidupan manusia sehari-hari. Tulisan ini hendak mengulas pemikiran Pannenberg tentang Kerajaan Allah, yang berdimensi eskatologis dan sekaligus terkait erat dengan keterlibatan umat Kristen di dalam dunia. Penulis menyatakan bahwa Pannenberg memahami Kerajaan Allah sebagai fondasi bagi keberadaan gereja dan harapan akan terwujudnya Kerajaan Allah di dunia ini mendorong gereja untuk secara aktif mewujudkan nilai-nilai Kerajaan Allah di dunia dengan terlibat dalam dunia.

Image of Corruptible Man: Masculinity in the Writings of Athanasius of Alexandria Beaver, Rachel Athanasius of Alexandria gender masculinity life of anthony early christianity asceticism patristics athanasius of alexandria gender asceticism This article offers a reading of Life of Anthony through the lens of gender performance theory and masculinity studies to uncover one fourth-century construction of the ideal Christian man. Through the use of literature contemporary to Athanasius, I argue that Athanasius combined bodily self-presentation with literary and intellectual self-presentation to construct the ideal Christian man and secure his own masculinity in the public eye. One way he achieved this was by creating a hagiographical version of Anthony on whom he could project his own ideological preferences concerning asceticism and masculinity. Athanasius' construction of the Arian as a cunning and feminine figure in his other writings and Anthony as a masculine figure who denounces Arianism effectively typifies fidelity to Nicene orthodoxy as a masculine trait and deviation from Nicene orthodoxy as feminine. This established Anthony as a beacon of masculine orthodoxy for others to emulate.

Engaging Human Sexuality: Creating Safe Spaces for LGBTIQ+ and Straight Believers in South Africa Palm, Selina Gaum, Laurie LGBTIQ sexuality church queer theology gender inclusion diversity The development of experiential human sexuality workshops within faith communities in South Africa (SA) is showcased. The findings from a 2019 empirical study with local church congregations around LGBTIQ+ belonging are used as starting point. The intervention brings together people of diverse sexualities and genders from various Christian faith contexts. Methodologies from a longstanding programme developed in the USA are adapted, that was shaped by learnings from the SA Truth and Reconciliation Commission. This is reworked into a continuum approach to sexuality and gender, developing new tools, and using the lens of intersectionality within the SA context. The article explores the potential and pitfalls of using the workshop piloted twice in 2020, more widely in faith settings to create spaces for safe encounter between straight and LGBTIQ+ people engaging on human sexuality, building solidarity and strengthening ally-ship. It concludes to show how an important gap within both LGBTIQ+ activism and theology is met.

Draw the Circle Wide(r): Narrative Analysis of Genesis 1 and 2 Through Gender Anthropological Perspective as a Means for Gender-Inclusive Interpretation Draw the Circle Wide(r): Analisis Naratif terhadap Kejadian 1 dan 2 dalam Perspektif Antropologi Gender sebagai Upaya Tafsir Inklusif Gender Ekklesia, Dia Gloria Gender inclusive inclusive interpretation Genesis 1 and 2 gender inklusif tafsir inklusif Kejadian 1 dan 2 This paper interprets Genesis 1 and 2 (creation narrative) using a gender anthropological perspective as an attempt to show gender inclusiveness in Genesis 1 and 2 that embraces gender minorities. Starting from the awareness of the marginalization of gender minorities both inside and outside the church using the biblical text, this article emphasizes that the marginalization of gender minorities is not the main message of Genesis 1 and 2. This paper begins by discussing the context of marginalization of gender minorities using biblical texts to legitimize violence against minority gender identities or orientations. Then this article uses an inclusive gender interpretation of Genesis 1 and 2 to demonstrate an anthropological-based inclusive interpretation of gender injustice and gender justice. Tulisan ini menafsir Kejadian 1 dan 2 (narasi penciptaan) dengan menggunakan perspektif antropologi gender sebagai upaya untuk memperlihatkan keinklusivan gender dalam Kejadian 1 dan 2 yang merangkul kaum minoritas gender. Berangkat dari kesadaran atas marjinalisasi terhadap kaum minoritas gender baik dari dalam maupun luar gereja dengan menggunakan teks Alkitab, artikel ini menegaskan bahwa marjinalisasi terhadap kaum minoritas gender bukanlah pesan utama dari Kejadian 1 dan 2. Tulisan ini dimulai dengan membahas konteks marjinalisasi terhadap minoritas gender yang menggunakan teks-teks Alkitab untuk melegitimasi kekerasan terhadap identitas atau orientasi gender minoritas. Kemudian artikel ini memanfaatkan tafsir gender inklusif atas Kejadian 1 dan 2 untuk mendemonstrasikan sebuah tafsir inklusif berbasis antropologis tentang ketidakadilan gender dan keadilan gender.

Discipleship: Character Formation for the Millennial Generation in the Protestant Church in the Western Part of Indonesia (GPIB) Pemuridan : Pelayanan Efektif bagi Generasi Milenial di Gereja Protestan di Indonesia bagian Barat (GPIB) Tamawiwy, August Corneles the Millennial generation character transformation discipleship character ethics GPIB ministry generasi Milenial pembentukan karakter pemuridan etika karakter pelayanan GPIB The future of the church does not depend on the younger generation, but the Lord Jesus Christ. This theological foundation leads the church—in this case GPIB—to a more effective and robust ministry for the Millennial generation through discipleship. This paper aims to show that without discipleship, every effort to reach Millennials to get involved in the church is efficient but has not been effective yet. Modifying worships and traditions to reach Millennials is a form of external transformation, while discipleship talks about internal transformation. Without internal transformation, efficient external transformation efforts have not been effective. Masa depan gereja tidak bergantung pada generasi muda, melainkan Tuhan Yesus Kristus. Pondasi teologis ini menuntun gereja—dalam hal ini GPIB—kepada pelayanan yang lebih efektif bagi generasi Milenial melalui pemuridan. Tulisan ini hendak memperlihatkan bahwa tanpa pemuridan, setiap upaya menjangkau generasi Milenial untuk terlibat di gereja memang efisien namun belum efektif. Memodifikasi pola beribadah dan tradisi untuk menjangkau generasi Milenial merupakan bentuk transformasi eksternal, sedangkan pemuridan berbicara tentang transformasi internal. Tanpa transformasi internal, upaya transformasi eksternal yang efisien belum efektif.

The Animality and Communio Creatorum: Critique and Proposal for Christian Theology The Animality and Communio Creatorum: Kritik dan Tawaran bagi Teologi Kristen Meyok, Charlanency Bernabhita Incarnation imago Christi imago Trinitatis ecclesia communio creatorum Constructive Theology Inkarnasi imago Trinitaris ekklesia communio creatorum imago Christi Teologi Konstruktif This article attempts to criticize three main dimensions of Christian theology that are generally anthropocentric: incarnation theology, the concept of imago Dei, and ecclesiology. This article offers a new understanding of the three concepts by engaging with several theologians, namely Jaques Derrida, Neils Gregersen, Jürgen Moltmann, Lynn Towsend White, and some others theologians. The theology of the incarnation is reconstructed more broadly to interpret the incarnation not only for humans, but all creation. Furthermore, the idea of ​​Christ the Imago Dei and all creation created in the unique relationship of the Trinity is used as the key to declaring all creation as imago Christi and imago Trinitatis. These two reconstructions become the basis for correcting the concept of ecclesiology which tends to be anthropocentric. The main goal is to offer a cosmologically-based theological perspective that is not exclusive for humans, but inclusive for all creation—communio creatorum—the fellowship of all creations. Each with its uniqueness has an equal opportunity to glorify God. This article further provides alternative thoughts in dealing with the current ecological crisis. Tulisan ini berupaya untuk mengkritik tiga pokok teologi Kristen yang umumnya dipahami secara antroposentris, yakni teologi inkarnasi, imago Dei, dan eklesiologi. Tulisan ini menyumbang alternatif pemahaman baru terhadap ketiga pokok teologi tersebut yang dikonstruksi melalui sumbangan teologis dari beberapa teolog, seperti Jaques Derrida, Neils Gregersen, Jürgen Moltmann, Lynn Towsend White, dan beberapa lainnya. Teologi inkarnasi direkonstruksi secara lebih meluas, untuk memaknai inkarnasi tidak hanya bagi manusia, namun untuk semua ciptaan. Selanjutnya, gagasan Kristus Sang Imago Dei dan semua ciptaan yang tercipta dalam hubungan unik Trinitas, digunakan sebagai kunci untuk menyatakan bahwa ciptaan adalah imago Christi dan imago Trinitatis. Kedua rekonstruksi ini menjadi landasan untuk mengoreksi konsep eklesiologi yang cenderung antroposentris. Tujuan utama yang ingin dicapai adalah sebuah konstruksi teologis yang tidak antroposentris, melainkan kosmologis; tidak ekskusif bagi manusia, namun inklusif bagi semua ciptaan—communio creatorum—persekutuan seluruh ciptaan. Dengan watak yang kosmologis, tulisan ini diharapkan dapat menyumbang alternatif pemahaman dalam menghadapi krisis ekologis masa kini. Melalui uraian yang memuat kritik dan tawaran ini, penulis sampai pada istilah communio creatorum yang merangkum seluruh ide dan tujuan tulisan ini, yakni persekutuan semua ciptaan yang dalam keunikannya masing-masing memiliki kesempatan yang sama untuk memuliakan Allah. Artikel ini menawarkan alternatif pemahaman untuk berurusan dengan krisis ekologis.

Pneumatic Christocentrism as a Theological Offer for the Spirituality of Church Youth Kristosentrisme Pneumatik sebagai Tawaran Teologis bagi Spiritualitas Kaum Muda Gereja Sunjaya, Angga Putra GBI moralistic therapeutic deism Pneumatic Christocentrism GBI moralistik terapeutik deisme Kristosentrisme Pneumatik ABSTRACT This article discusses qualitative research on youth spirituality in Gereja Bethel Indonesia Bless Impact Generation (GBI BIG) using the investigative method of Christian Smith. The results of this study indicate that young people have a spirituality that is moralistic, therapeutic, and deistic. This article criticizes this moralistic, therapeutic, and deism spirituality from a dogmatic point of view. Through David Wells' Christology view as the theological apparatus, the author believes that moralistic, therapeutic and deistic spirituality will result in failure in the growth of Christian faith because it displaces Christ as the focal point of faith. Complementing Wells' thought, this article brings up the idea of Pneumatic Christocentrism as a theological offering.   Keywords: GBI, moralistik, terapeutik, deisme, Pneumatic Christocentrism. Artikel ini membahas hasil penelitian kualitatif terhadap spiritualitas kaum muda di Gereja Bethel Indonesia jemaat Bless Impact Generation (GBI BIG) dengan menggunakan metode investigatif dari Christian Smith dan Melinda Denton. Hasil dari penelitian tersebut menunjukkan bahwa kaum muda memiliki spiritualitas yang bersifat moralistik, terapeutik, dan deisme. Artikel ini mengkritik spiritualitas yang demikian dari sudut bidik dogmatis. Melalui pandangan Kristologi David Wells sebagai aparatus teologis, penulis meyakini bahwa spiritualitas moralistik, terapeutik, dan deisme akan menghasilkan kegagalan dalam pertumbuhan iman Kristen karena menggeser Kristus sebagai titik pusat keimanan. Melengkapi pemikiran Wells, artikel ini mengangkat gagasan Kristosentrisme Pneumatik sebagai tawaran teologis. Kristosentrisme Pneumatik memusatkan perhatian pada Kristologi, yang kemudian memiliki watak Roh. Penulis mengangkat gagasan Kristosentrisme Pneumatik guna melengkapi aspek ritual, pastoral, dan komunal dalam membangun spiritualitas kaum muda gereja.

The Election of the Disciples as the Work of the Father and the Son: An Exegetical Analysis about the Relationship and Works of the Father and the Son in John 6:60-71 Pemilihan Para Murid sebagai Karya Kesatuan Bapa dan Anak: Sebuah Kajian Eksegetis mengenai Relasi dan Karya Bapa dan Anak dalam Yohanes 6: 60-71 Kantohe, Finki Rianto Father Son Jesus the disciples the crowd unity Bapa Anak Yesus murid-murid orang banyak kesatuan Perjanjian Baru Injil Yohanes When exploring the unity of the Father and the Son in the Gospel of John, scholars tend to skip John 6:60-71. This section portrays the unity of the Father and the Son that has significant theological implications for the church’s soteriology and ecclesiology. The author argues that John 6:60-71 depicts the unity of the Father and the Son in selecting the disciples. This view implies that salvation and the fellowship of believers are the work of the Father and the Son. The author reviews several aspects: the gospel’s historical and literary contexts, including the structure of the gospel, the exegesis of John 6:60-71 and its theological implications on the aspects of the unity of the Father and the Son. Finally, this paper concludes with the idea that salvation and the fellowship of believers are the work of the Father and the Son described in John 6: 60-71. Ketika menyoroti kesatuan Bapa dan Anak dalam narasi Injil Yohanes, para ahli cenderung melewatkan Yohanes 6:60-71. Bagian ini memotret kesatuan Bapa dan Anak yang memiliki implikasi teologis yang signifikan bagi konsep soteriologi dan eklesiologi gereja. Penulis berpendapat bahwa Yohanes 6:60-71 menggambarkan kesatuan Bapa dan Anak dalam pemilihan para murid. Pandangan ini mengimplikasikan bahwa keselamatan dan persekutuan orang percaya merupakan karya Bapa dan Anak. Penulis melakukan kajian mengenai beberapa aspek: konteks sejarah Injil Yohanes dan kesusastraannya, termasuk kajian atas struktur Injil tersebut, eksegese Yohanes 6:60-71, implikasi teologisnya mengenai kesatuan Bapa dan Anak. Pada akhirnya, tulisan ini disimpulkan dengan sebuah gagasan bahwa keselamatan dan kehidupan persekutuan orang percaya merupakan karya Bapa dan Anak sebagaimana yang digambarkan dalam Yohanes 6:60-71.

Forgotten Souls: A Feminist Postcolonial Preaching on the Role of Women in Mission within an Indonesian Local Church Contemporary Narratives Jiwa-Jiwa yang Terlupakan: Khotbah Feminis Pascakolonial tentang Peran Perempuan dalam Misi di dalam Narasi Kontemporer sebuah Gereja Lokal di Indonesia Lumintang, Merlin Brenda Angeline feminist postcolonial preaching mission missionary women subaltern testimony khotbah feminis pascakolonial misi perempuan misionaris subaltern testimoni The stories of the western male missionary are commonly and widely known in mission history. This article, however, reclaims the widely forgotten stories of women missionaries as authentic mission narratives relevant to the contemporary mission preaching conducted in the local Indonesian churches such as the Evangelical Christian Church in Minahasa.  This article uses a feminist postcolonial perspective to argue that women missionaries are postcolonial subjects. It further uses their narratives to shape the local church's sermon as a "counter-testimony" to the grand Christian mission narratives that often forget women missionaries' voices and roles. Narasi misionaris laki-laki Barat lebih dikenal secara umum dan luas dalam sejarah misi.  Artikel ini mengklaim kembali narasi perempuan misionaris yang selama ini terlupakan dan menjadikannya sumber yang sahih bagi khotbah misi kontemporer gereja lokal, dalam hal ini, Gereja Masehi Injili di Minahasa. Artikel ini menggunakan perspektif feminis pascakolonial untuk menekankan peran para perempuan misionaris sebagai subjek pascakolonial dan narasi mereka sebagai sebagai counter-testimony terhadap narasi besar misi Kristen yang sering melupakan suara dan peran perempuan misionaris.

Looking into Unfamiliar Words in Congregational Songs Menyelisik Kata-kata yang Khas dalam Nyanyian Jemaat Rachman, Rasid arranger Bible‘s texts fermata hymn narrative translator words fermata himne narasi penerjemah penyair syair teks Alkitab The unfamiliar words in the congregational songs evoke my attention to investigate the roots and the hidden meaning of the songs. Without problems, congregations often keep singing the songs, although some words have no clear meaning. How does the meaning of the Bible verses from which the songs originate change to give rise to different impressions and messages? How can one or two words appropriately narrate the majesty of God? How does a one word conversation change its nuance when sung? These things led me to explore some words and investigate them from the original song and translated vocabulary perspective to find a deeper theological meaning. Some impressive words could be more meaningful or more precise. I chose those words and investigated them to get a more profound impression and message. I found that those words are chosen by the composer or translator convey a personal faith experience that impacts the community. In this article I offer the people to take attention on words of songs. They give a deep nuance and meaning for spiritual life. Menyelisik kata-kata tak biasa dalam nyanyian jemaat menggugah saya untuk mencari akar dan makna di balik nyanyian. Ada kata yang tidak jelas artinya, namun umat menyanyikannya tanpa kendala. Bagaimana naskah Alkitab yang merupakan asal nyanyian berubah makna sehingga memunculkan kesan dan pesan berbeda? Bagaimana kata satu atau dua huruf dapat menarasikan keagungan Allah? Bagaimana satu kata dalam percakapan berubah nuansa ketika dinyanyikan? Hal-hal tersebut membawa saya mendalami syair-syair tertentu dan menyelisiknya dari sudut kosa kata, baik kata asli maupun terjemahan untuk menemukan makna teologis. Saya terkesan terhadap kata-kata tampaknya tak berarti atau tak jelas arti dalam nyanyian jemaat berbahasa Indonesia. Saya memilih kata-kata tersebut dan menyelisiknya untuk memperoleh kesan dan pesan lebih mendalam. Saya menemukan bahwa kata-kata yang dipilih oleh pencipta atau penerjemah menyampaikan penghayatan iman personal yang berdampak secara komunal. Tawaran adalah agar umat memperhatikan dengan seksama kata per kata dalam syair nyanyian jemaat. Kata-kata tersebut memberikan nuansa dan makna bagi kehidupan spiritual.

Desire Education: Education amidst the Discourse of Secularism and Nationalism Edukasi Hasrat: Pendidikan di tengah Wacana Sekularisme dan Kebangsaan Wilar, Abraham Silo secularism nationalism desire education locality religious primordialism corruption sekularisme kebangsaan edukasi hasrat lokalitas primordialisme agama korupsi This study explores the traces of the desire for education historically and phenomenologically in Indonesia amid secularism and nationalism discourse. Several questions can be asked regarding the portrait of education amid the crush of secularism and nationalism. For example, what was the picture of the world of education and humans (as well as society) who were in the crush of secularism and nationalism? To address this question, I focus on the scope of locality, religious primordialism, and corruption as the primary problem. These three sections are reviewed to show the role of the desire for education in forming secularism and nationalism. Decentralization is a critical part of exploring the influence of locality in the formation of secularism and nationalism. Narratives of religious authorities show how religious primordialism affects the formation of secularism and nationalism.; on corruption, we are dealing with a systemic culture of corruption in both regional and central governments. Based on the three factors, I would like to highlight the portrait of education at that time and its role. From here, I move on to offer education on the desire that I borrowed from Timothy Schroeder to talk about motivation, enjoyment, and recognition that can shake and build human character. From this, I argue that education on desire is vital to manage human beings from the desire for hatred (religious), the desire to dominate, and the desire for political-economic satisfaction. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menelusuri jejak-jejak edukasi hasrat secara historis, yang dalam hal ini menjadi fieldword dari studi ini, dan secara fenomenologis di Indonesia di tengah diskursus sekularisme dan kebangsaan. Sejumlah pertanyaan dapat diajukan terkait potret pendidikan yang berada di tengah himpitan sekularisme dan kebangsaan, misalnya, bagaimana gambaran dunia pendidikan dan manusia (sekaligus masyarakatnya) yang berada pada himpitan sekularisme dan kebangsaan itu? Untuk membahas pertanyaan itu, saya berusaha untuk memfokuskannya pada skop lokalitas, primordialisme agama, dan korupsi sebagai persoalan utama. Ketiga bagian ini ditinjau dalam rangka memperlihatkan peran edukasi hasrat dalam terbentuknya sekularisme dan kebangsaan. Pada topik lokalitas, sentralisasi-desentralisasi menjadi bagian penting untuk ditelusuri; pada primordialisme agama, narasi dari otoritas agama merupakan bagian menarik dalam proses pembentukan sekularisme dan kebangsaan; pada korupsi, kita berurusan dengan kultur korupsi yang sistemik, baik di daerah maupun pusat. Berdasarkan tiga aspek itu, saya hendak menyoroti kembali potret pendidikan pada masa Order Baru, bagaimana perannya. Dari sini saya bergerak untuk menawarkan edukasi hasrat yang saya pinjam dari Timothy Schroeder untuk membicarakan motivasi, kenikmatan, dan penghargaan yang dapat menggoyahkan sekaligus membangun karakter manusia. Dari sini, saya berargumen bahwa edukasi hasrat penting untuk mengelola manusia-manusia dari hasrat kebencian (agamis), hasrat menguasai, dan hasrat kepuasan politik-ekonomi.

God’s Presence in Digital Space: Theological Studies of Online Worship in the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic Hadirat Tuhan dalam Ruang Digital: Kajian Teologis terhadap Ibadah Online di tengah Pandemi Covid-19 Gunawan, Daniel Kristanto teologi praktis praksis liturgis kehadiran trinitas ibadah online digital teologi praktis liturgi Practical Theology Online Worship Presence Digital Space The Trinity The pandemic period forced the church to change its way of service from onsite to online, including Sunday service. The church tries to bring an atmosphere of worship in person in the church moving to the house or any other place through virtual worship in the digital space. However, it turns out that attendance at online church services is a problem. Some think the presence in the digital space is less real than the presence in the analog room. How can attendance at online worship be validated as a natural body presence in the liturgy? Will the people experience an encounter with God’s presence through worship in the digital space? This paper attempts to examine the experience of being present through the point of view of practical theology. I reconstruct the meaning of presence in worship in the digital space by emphasizing a model of fellowship in the Triune God. Masa pandemi memaksa gereja mengubah cara pelayanannya dari onsite menjadi online, termasuk juga dengan ibadah minggu. Gereja berupaya menghadirkan suasana ibadah di gereja berpindah ke rumah melalui ibadah online di ruang digital. Namun ternyata, kehadiran dalam ibadah online menjadi persoalan. Ada yang menganggap kehadiran di ruang digital tidak sama nyata dengan kehadiran di ruang anaog. Bagaimana kehadiran dalam ibadah online dapat divalidasi sebagai kehadiran tubuh yang nyata di dalam liturgi? Apakah umat akan mengalami perjumpaan dengan kehadiran Tuhan melalui ibadah di ruang digital? Makalah ini berupaya mengkaji tentang pengalaman kehadiran melalui sudut pandang teologi praktis. Saya merekonstruski makna kehadiran dalam pengalaman ibadah di ruang digital dengan menekankan model persekutuan Allah Trinitas.

Negatification of Capitalization: A Study of Pa’pandan as a Gift-Giving Phenomenon in the Toraja Culture Negatifikasi Kapitalisasi: Kajian Terhadap Pa’pandan Sebagai Fenomena Pemberian dalam Konteks Budaya Toraja Tendenan, Vani Budaya Toraja Fenomenologi Jean-Luc Marion Kapitalisasi Pa’pandan Pemberian Teologi Negatif Toraja Culture Phenomenology Capitalization pa’pandan Gift-giving practice Negative Theology Pa’pandan is a practice of gift-giving in the Toraja culture of South Sulawesi. The article identifies that pa’pandan has become a harmful practice because of the influence of capitalization. The practice is embedded in the debt system affecting mainly the less fortunate people in the Torajan society. This article focuses on efforts to negate cultural capitalization that influences the practice of pa’pandan to become an uncontrolled or excessive gift-giving practice. As a result, it produces gifts that have a negative impact. Bringing Jean Luc-Marion’s phenomenological method into dialogue with the negative theology according to Arthur Bradley, this article offers a negative theological view on a gift-giving practice to reconstruct the practice of pa’pandan into becoming a more effective practice with a more positive impact, especially in transforming the debt system in the life of the marginalized. Pa’pandan merupakan praktik pemberian hadiah dalam budaya Toraja yang berubah menjadi praktik negatif karena pengaruh kapitalisasi yang berakar dalam sistem utang piutang yang berimbas terutama kepada kalangan terpinggir. Tulisan ini berfokus pada upaya negatifikasi terhadap kapitalisasi budaya yang memengaruhi praktik pa’pandan menjadi suatu pemberian tidak terkontrol atau berlebihan dan menghasilkan pemberian yang berdampak negatif. Dengan mendialogkan metode fenomenologi Jean Luc-Marion dengan teologi negatif menurut Arthur Bradley, artikel ini menawarkan sebuah pandangan teologis-negatif tentang praktik pemberian dan implikasinya dalam merekonstruksi Pa’pandan menjadi praktik pemberian yang bermanfaat, positif, dan efektif dalam membawa perubahan, khususnya bagi masyarakat terpinggir.

The relationship between the two tends to dominate each other. As a result, their relationship is strained. This article aims to find an alternative for GMIT to adequately manage the plurality of spirituality among its members amid the presence of the Prayer Groups. This article uses a theological approach combined with a historical phenomenology approach by Jan S. Aritonang. In the end, this article combines Joas Adiprasetya's model of the Garden and Tom Hovestol's Spiritual Profile to solve  the problem between GMIT members and Prayer Fellowship members. The Garden Model explains that believershave different ways to express their experiences, love, and relationships with the Triune God. While the Spiritual Profile offers a joint learning model based on Jesus' ministry, namely through koinonia and martyria. This article suggests that these two models give alternatives forGMIT in providing a common space for people with various spiritual practices to get to know each other's uniqueness through joint discussions about God's Word in-depth and learning spiritual discipline. The result is the manifestation of reciprocal openness and the restoration of tenuous relationships. These two alternatives can manage the plurality of spirituality in communion as a whole and in balance. Konflik antara anggota Persekutuan Doa dan warga Gereja Masehi Injili di Timor (GMIT) karena perbedaan spiritualitas telah menjadi pergumulan GMIT dalam lingkup jemaat secara umum. Hubungan keduanya cenderung saling mendominasi, yang akhirnya menimbulkan kerenggangan. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menemukan alternatif bagi GMIT dalam mengelola pluralitas spiritualitas secara relevan. Artikel ini menggunakan pendekatan teologis yang dipadukan dengan pendekatan historis fenomenologis oleh Jan S. Aritonang. Pada akhirnya, artikel ini menawarkan “model taman” menurut Joas Adiprasetya dan "profil spiritual” karya Tom Hovestol sebagai alternatif solusi bagi  persoalan di antara warga GMIT dan anggota-anggota Persekutuan Doa. Model Taman menawarkan sebuah gambaran bahwa  orang percaya memiliki cara yang berbeda-beda dalam mengekspresikan pengalaman, cinta, dan relasi mereka dengan Allah Tritunggal. Sedangkan Profil Spiritual menawarkan sebuah model pembelajaran bersama dengan basis pelayanan Yesus, yakni melalui koinonia dan marturia. Dengan menggunakan kedua pendekatan iniGMIT memberikan ruang bersama untuk mengenal keunikan masing-masing melalui diskusi bersama tentang Firman Tuhan secara mendalam dan belajar disiplin rohani, sehingga terjadi keterbukaan timbal-balik dan memulihkan relasi yang renggang. Dua alternatif tersebut mampu mengelola pluralitas spiritualitas dalam persekutuan secara utuh dan seimbang.

ΕΧΩ ΤΗΝ ΚΑΥΧΗΣΙΝ: The Rhetorical Function of Paul's Boasting in Romans 15:17 Kasih, Elia Mesrico Abdi Rhetorical Criticism Paul Plutarch Boasting Self-praise Paul’s boasting in Romans 15:17 raises the question of how the act of boasting needs to be perceived within the Christian world. Generally, boasting is considered a negative conduct and thus one should refrain from doing such action. However, this paper argues that Paul’s boasting in that verse has a positive significant rhetorical function that is correlated to gathering the support for his plan of mission to the worlds beyond Rome. In support of this argument, it is instructive to identify the different attitudes towards boasting both exhibited in the first-century Greco-Roman world and the Jewish tradition during that era. Moreover, classical rhetoric is also an important key to open the door to a clearer understanding of why in Romans 15:17 Paul boldly states that he has the pride or the reason to boast in Christ Jesus.

Health Theology and Psychoneuroimmunology Approaches to Toraja Community Suicide Vulnerability Manguju, Yudha Nugraha Pendekatan Teologi Kesehatan dan Psikoneuroimunologi Terhadap Kerentanan Bunuh Diri Masyarakat Toraja Manguju, Yudha Suicide Neuroscience Psychoneuroimmunology Psychotheology Health Theology The incident of suicide every year is a hot topic to talk about because it is one of the causes of the high mortality rate of mankind in the world. All circles of society now need to pay serious attention to this problem because the complexity of the problem in it consists of various aspects such as psychological, sociological, health. educational, cultural to theological. This paper aims to examine the vulnerability of suicide in Toraja society with the lens of health theology and psychoneuroimmunology. Using qualitative research methods with a literature study approach, this study shows that suicidal behavior occurs due to the inability to know and understand a healthy God in daily life which has an impact on instability of brain function and also an imbalance of the immune system in perpetrators who have suicidal ideation. From the theological and psychoneuroimmunological approaches it is found that religious beliefs and practices have an influence on the mental, social and physical health of the human being, in which the concept of a healthy God can generate healthy thoughts, feelings and behaviors. In this case, religious involvement has a significant correlation as a coping method for better mental health in minimizing all negative health behaviors, especially as a daily spiritual practice. Peristiwa bunuh diri setiap tahun menjadi topik yang selalu hangat untuk dibicarakan karena menjadi salah satu penyebab tingginya angka kematian umat manusia di dunia. Semua kalangan masyarakat kini perlu memberi perhatian serius mengenai masalah ini oleh sebab kompleksitas persoalan di dalamnya terdiri dari berbagai aspek seperti psikologis, sosiologis, kesehatan. pendidikan, budaya hingga teologis. Tulisan ini hendak meneliti kerentanan bunuh diri dalam masyarakat Toraja dengan lensa teologi kesehatan dan psikoneuroimunologi. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi pustaka, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perilaku bunuh diri terjadi oleh sebab ketidakmampuan mengenal dan memahami Tuhan yang sehat dalam kehidupan sehari-hari yang berdampak pada ketidakstabilan fungsi otak dan juga ketidakseimbangan sistem kekebalan tubuh pada pelaku yang memiliki ide bunuh diri. Dari pendekatan teologis dan psikoneuroimunologis ditemukan bahwa keyakinan dan praktik agama memiliki pengaruh pada kesehatan mental, sosial dan fisik manusia, di mana konsep Tuhan yang sehat dapat menghasilkan pikiran, perasaan dan perilaku yang sehat. Dalam hal ini keterlibatan agama memiliki korelasi yang signifikan sebagai metode koping untuk kesehatan mental yang lebih baik dalam meminimalisir segala perilaku kesehatan yang negatif, utamanya sebagai laku spiritual setiap hari.

Dialogue between Ritual Studies and Textual Hermeneutics: An Alternative to Contextual Theology in Indonesia Dialog Studi Ritual dengan Hermeneutika Tekstual: Suatu Alternatif Berteologi Kontekstual di Indonesia Sipahutar, Roy Charly HP Dialogue hermeneutics textual ritual theology contextual Dialog hermeneutika tekstual ritual teologi kontekstual This article is an attempt to provide an alternative contextual theology in Indonesia. The awareness of Asian and Indonesian theology in recent decades has brought about hermeneutic creativity that seeks to produce a theology that is truly born and belongs to Asia, especially Indonesia. Intertextual hermeneutics, which is popular in the West today, has been developed in Asia to become cross-textual hermeneutics by considering the richness and diversity of Asian cultural and religious texts. However, the certainty that in Asia, especially Indonesia, ritual and oral (speech) traditions have functions that are more rooted and widespread compared to textual (written) traditions demands an alternative hermeneutical model to make non-textual traditions, especially rituals that are preserved amid local communities, has a place in theology. This study uses a descriptive-analytical approach to parse the meaning of ritual, ritual studies (religious material culture), and textual hermeneutics to obtain an alternative to Indonesian contextual hermeneutics. The results of the study indicate that there is a need for dialogue between ritual studies as a form of respect for the authority of Indonesian traditions and textual hermeneutics, which is still dominant in the interpretation of the Scriptures. Dialogue between ritual studies and textual hermeneutics is an alternative to contextual theology in Indonesia. Artikel ini merupakan suatu upaya untuk memberikan alternatif berteologi kontekstual di Indonesia. Kesadaran teologi Asia dan Indonesia dalam beberapa dekade belakangan ini menghadirkan kreativitas hermeneutik yang berupaya melahirkan teologi yang benar-benar lahir dan menjadi milik Asia, khususnya Indonesia. Hermeneutika intertekstual yang sampai hari ini cukup populer di Barat telah dikembangkan di Asia menjadi hermeneutika lintas tekstual dengan mempertimbangkan kekayaan serta keberagaman teks budaya dan religi Asia. Namun demikian, keniscayaan bahwa di Asia, khususnya Indonesia, tradisi ritual dan lisan (tutur) memiliki fungsi yang lebih mengakar dan tersebar luas dibandingkan dengan tradisi tekstual (tulisan) menuntut suatu alternatif model hermeneutika yang lain untuk menjadikan tradisi non-tekstual, khususnya ritual yang melestari di tengah masyarakat lokal memiliki tempat dalam berteologi. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis mengurai makna ritual, studi ritual (budaya material agama), dan hermeneutika tekstual untuk memperoleh alternatif hermeneutika kontekstual Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlu adanya dialog antara studi ritual sebagai bentuk penghargaan terhadap kewibawaan tradisi Indonesia dengan hermeneutika tekstual yang sampai saat ini masih dominan dalam penafsiran Kitab Suci. Dialog studi ritual dengan hermeneutika tekstual menjadi alternatif berteologi kontekstual di bumi Indonesia.

Make Way for Beauty: The Role of Contemplative Artistic Practice in Navigating Religious Education along the Unknowing Path Triasmoroadi, Hardiyan Arts Apophatic Cataphatic Contemplative Artistic Practice Religious Education The pandemic has plunged us into a liminal situation and led us into an unknown situation. In this article, I propose an apophatic approach to cultivating spirituality in response to this prevailing uncertainty. Within the Christian spiritual tradition, two major approaches exist, i.e. the cataphatic (via affirmation) and the apophatic (via negation). While religious education often leans heavily towards the cataphatic approach rather than apophatic, I argue that in the face of uncertainty, religious education would benefit greatly from embracing the apophatic approach. One way to achieve this is by creating more space for artistic practices. Contemplative artistic practices, which yearn to find beauty apophatically, play a significant role in navigating religious education through uncertain times. The inclusion of artistic practices in religious education can deepen spirituality, help individuals navigate uncertainty, and enable them to find beauty amidst unknowing paths.

Discovering the Concept of Basilea in Tupac Shakur’s Song “Ghetto Gospel”: A Study of Theology and Popular Culture Menemukan Konsep Basilea dalam Lagu Tupac Shakur Ghetto Gospel: Suatu Kajian Teologi dan Budaya Populer Mofun, Costantinus Ponsius Yogie Tupac Shakur Ghetto Ghetto Gospel Basilea Post-Soul Tupac Shakur Ghetto Ghetto Gospel Basilea Post-Soul Theology and popular culture are two things that are very important to see in today’s context. Many people are beginning to see popular culture as part of their lives and cannot be let go. This can be seen in music, which is not only popular culture but also part of the culture itself. There are many forms of understanding of music, both negative and positive. Hip-hop music is by far a trending music in the context of the younger generation. One of the users of this music is Tupac Amaru Shakur. He is both a legend and an icon of hip-hop music. His songs are still heard today and have become favorites in various circles.

Heaven: Where Is It? The Coming of God in Glory and the World’s Transformation and Transfiguration as the Consummation of Creation’s Predestination Di Mana Letak Surga Itu? Kedatangan Allah dalam Kemuliaan serta Transformasi dan Transfigurasi Dunia sebagai Pemenuhan Predestinasi Ciptaan Kuganda, Dandy predestination theatrum gloria Dei adventus heaven transformation and transfiguration of the world Eschatology Systematic Theology Reformed Theology predestinasi theatrum gloria Dei adventus surga transformasi dan transfigurasi dunia Eskatologi Teologi Reformed The intention of this paper is to reconstruct two concepts in the discourse of Christian soteriology and eschatology, namely predestination which only includes human being and heaven which is believed to be outside of this world. I argue that the realization of the kingdom of God in the world as a part of divine predestination provides a theological construction basis for soteriological and eschatological conversations that embrace the entire creation in God's glory. To defend my claim, I arrange three strands of argument. I start by reconstructing the concept of predestination, that from the beginning God had a purpose for creation that included all of His creatures. The purpose of creation is to make the world theatrum gloria Dei, the arena for the revelation of God's glory over His creation. Afterwards, I argue that the fulfillment of predestination was due to God's movement in the future that came to the present in His glory. Creation is not in the process of moving towards the future, but rather preparing itself for the coming/adventus of God. This leads to my next argument that the adventus of God in His glory causes the whole world to be transformed and transfigured into heaven, the dwelling place of God in the midst of all of His creation. For this reason, in several passages, I reject the concept of predestination which only includes humans, the rapture of believers at the end of time, and the total annihilation of the world at the coming of God in His glory. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk merekonstruksi dua konsep dalam diskursus soteriologi dan eskatologi kristiani, yaitu predestinasi yang hanya mencakup manusia dan surga yang diyakini berada di luar dunia. Saya berargumen bahwa realisasi kerajaan Allah di dunia sebagai bagian dari predestinasi Ilahi memberikan basis konstruksi teologis bagi percakapan soteriologi dan eskatologi yang merengkuh seluruh ciptaan dalam kemuliaan Allah. Untuk mempertanggungjawabkan klaim tersebut, saya merangkai tiga untaian argumen. Saya mulai dengan merekonstruksi konsep predestinasi, bahwa sejak semula Allah telah menetapkan tujuan penciptaan yang mencakup seluruh makhluk-Nya. Tujuan penciptaan adalah menjadikan dunia theatrum gloria Dei, arena penyingkapan kemuliaan Allah atas ciptaan-Nya. Setelah itu, saya mengajukan argumentasi bahwa pemenuhan predestinasi tersebut terjadi akibat gerak Allah di masa depan yang datang ke masa kini dalam kemuliaan-Nya. Ciptaan bukanlah berproses menuju masa depan, melainkan mempersiapkan diri menyongsong kedatangan/adventus Allah. Hal itu menggiring pada argumentasi saya yang berikutnya bahwa adventus Allah dalam kemuliaan-Nya membuat seluruh dunia bertransformasi dan bertransfigurasi menjadi surga, tempat kediaman Allah di tengah-tengah seluruh ciptaan-Nya. Untuk itulah, dalam beberapa bagian, saya menolak konsep predestinasi yang hanya mencakup manusia, pengangkatan orang percaya di akhir zaman, dan peniadaan total dunia ketika kedatangan Allah dalam kemuliaan-Nya.

Towards an Imaginative Friendship: A Dialogue Between the Concept of Dalihan Na Tolu and the Perichoresis of the Trinity for Christians, Muslims, and Parmalim in the Toba Batak Context Marpaung, Frans Best Soma perichoresis dalihan na tolu identity communion friendship Christianity Islam Parmalim Trinity Constructive Theology Religious diversity is central to the Indonesian context. Since the Reformation, Indonesia has been mired in multifaceted crises such as self-determination conflicts (Aceh and Papua), identity politics, religious fundamentalism, terrorism, and social conflicts. One method of conflict resolution is interfaith dialogue. However, interfaith dialogue is insufficient to resolve the disputes. The limitation of this approach is that it disregards the importance of local issues and wisdom. Toba Batak is a tribe in North Sumatra where Christians, Muslims, and Parmalim coexist and live together. Dalihan Na Tolu explains that each human being has one essence in three persons, namely Hula-hula (blessing giver), Dongan Tubu (companion), and Boru (servant). Dalihan Na Tolu brings Christian, Muslim, and Parmalim into a trilogue. This research seeks to engage the concept of Dalihan Na Tolu with the idea of perichoresis of the Trinity, examining how this dialogue can shape a contextual understanding of God and Jesus Christ in the Toba Batak context. The pivotal inquiry pertains to integrating the concepts of Dalihan Na Tolu and perichoresis, fostering an imaginative model for interfaith dialogue within the Toba Batak context. Ultimately, this study proposes a contextual paradigm that promotes a trilogue among Christians, Muslims, and Parmalim, addressing Indonesia's complex tapestry of religious coexistence.

Who is the Other? Interpreting Luke 10:25-37 from the Points of View of Levinas and Buber Siapakah Orang Lain itu? Menafsirkan Lukas 10:25-37 Dari Kacamata Levinas Dan Buber Taneo, Rolin Ferdilianto Sandelgus Other People, Neighbors, Luke 10:25-37, Levinas, Buber Orang Lain, Sesama, Lukas 10:25-37, Levinas, Buber Who is the other or my neighbor?  This question is simple but contains a deeper meaning that needs to be reflected upon again.  Commonly, the meaning of the other or neighbors are  still limited to one particular tribe, clan, religion , or identity.  Therefore, this article aims to discover a more inclusive meaning of the other or neighbors t o achieve this goal, the authors will interpret Luke 10:25-37 using narrative and dialogical approaches to find the inclusive meaning of the other or neighbors and bring the narrative into dialogue with the thoughts of two great figures —Emmanuel Levinas and Martin Buber— who offer inclusive views about the other . The author uses the narrative interpretation method to draw meaning from the text into the context of this article. The aim is to offer a view about the other—neighbors or other people who do not share the same identity in order to show that the meaning of the other—some one or people how are different—surpass the shared identity with the self.   Lukas 10:25-37 merupakan teks yang sering menjadi rujukan jika isu persahabatan maupun tentang siapa itu sesama atau orang lain dibahas. Memang menarik jika tema ini dibahas. Tentang siapa itu sesama masih menjadi sebuah tanya, apakah ia hanya dibatasi pada satu suku, marga, agama atau malah menembus hal-hal ini? Tulisan ini dimaksudkan untuk mencari tahu makna dari sesama atau orang lain itu tetapi dengan fokus pada pemikiran dua tokoh besar yang membahas tentang orang lain yaitu Levinas dan Buber. Kedua pemikir ini memiliki khas pemikirannya tentang orang lain. Untuk itu, tulisan ini adalah dialog literatur dengan mencoba melihat kesinambungan antara teks Lukas 10:25-37 dengan pandangan kedua tokoh yang telah disebutkan di atas.

This article also focuses on analyzing the 2021-2023 PGI program, which distinguishes it from other articles that analyze the ecumenical crisis in a more general way, without going into analyzing the ecumenical council-related program. Artikel ini menganalisis tantangan krisis keesaan baik di tingkat mondial maupun di Indonesia. Beberapa dokumen digunakan untuk menganalisis sejauh mana studi tentang krisis keesaan telah berlangsung, dan kemudian melihat kesamaannya dengan krisis keesaan di Indonesia. Data berbasis dokumen diproses menggunakan perangkat kualitatif untuk melihat masalah yang ada dan polanya; khususnya terkait interkoneksi antara data. Artikel ini juga fokus pada analisis program PGI 2021-2023, sekaligus membedakannya dari artikel lain yang menganalisis krisis keesaan secara lebih umum, tanpa menganalisis program terkait dengan wadah keesaan.

Reflection on Frantz Fanon’s Postcolonial Thought in the Context of Land Hegemony in Indonesia and Church Social Praxis Refleksi atas Pemikiran Poskolonial Frantz Fanon dalam Konteks Hegemoni Tanah di Indonesia dan Praksis Sosial Gereja Tonta, Rex Firenze decolonization domein verklaring inclusive social structure colonial hegemonic residue land hegemony dekolonisasi domein verklaring residu kolonial struktur sosial inklusif hegemoni tanah This study discusses land hegemony in Indonesia, a historical product of colonialism. It is rooted in agrarian policy, which created the term domein verklaring, where land, where proof of ownership cannot be shown, is claimed as state-owned land. This colonial logic continued to be inherited and persisted in land issues even when Indonesia became independent. This paper uses Frantz Fanon's postcolonial theory as an analytical instrument to see the relationship between land hegemony and colonial residue. It is also hoped that the use of Fanon's postcolonial theory can provide an important contribution to the church in the "new era" to reflect on faith and become a theoretical basis for church projects involved in social transformation. This paper has three findings. First, land hegemony is rooted in colonialism policies that are still inherited today in Indonesia. Second, for Fanon, decolonization is the only way to liberate the oppressed, and the prerequisite is taking back the most fundamental and concrete value, i.e land. Third, the theoretical basis of Fanon's postcolonial theory provides options for an engaged church project for the protest and process of social transformation. Tulisan ini membahas hegemoni tanah di Indonesia yang merupakan produk historis dari kolonialisme. Berakar pada kebijakan agraria yang membuat istilah domein verklaring, yang merujuk pada pengertian bahwa tanah yang tidak dapat ditunjukkan bukti kepemilikannya diklaim sebagai tanah milik negara. Logika kolonial semacam itu terus diwarisi dan langgeng dalam persoalan tanah bahkan ketika Indonesia telah merdeka. Tulisan ini menggunakan teori poskolonial Frantz Fanon yang menjadi instrumen analisis untuk melihat kaitan antara hegemoni tanah dan residu kolonial. Penggunaan teori poskolonial Fanon ini juga diharapkan dapat memberikan sumbangsih penting bagi gereja di tengah “zaman baru” untuk merefleksikan iman, dan menjadi basis teoritis bagi proyek gereja yang terlibat dalam transformasi sosial. Tulisan ini memiliki tiga temuan.  Pertama, hegemoni tanah berakar pada kebijakan kolonialisme masih diwarisi hingga saat ini di Indonesia. Kedua, bagi Fanon, dekolonisasi adalah satu-satunya cara untuk membebaskan yang teropresi, dan prasyaratnya adalah mengambil kembali nilai paling fundamental dan konkret, yakni tanah. Ketiga, basis teoritis teori poskolonial Fanon menyediakan opsi untuk proyek gereja yang terlibat bagi proses-protes transformasi sosial.

Not a Cameo: The Holy Spirit as the Arche of the Trinity as the Basis for Gender Equality for Women in the Mission Narrative Bukan Kameo: Roh Kudus sebagai Arche Trinitas menjadi Basis Kesetaraan Gender bagi Perempuan dalam Narasi Misi Harefa, Oinike Roh Kudus Trinitas kesetaraan gender perempuan narasi misi Holy Spirit Trinity gender equality women mission narratives The role of the Holy Spirit is often seen as “complementary” in the Trinitarian relationship. Likewise, the role of women in mission narratives is also often seen as complementary. This study aims to elaborate on the concept of the Holy Spirit in the Trinitarian arche as the basis for gender equality for women in mission narratives. For this purpose, I reclaim the primacy of the role of the Holy Spirit in the Trinitarian arche as the basis for gender equality. Furthermore, I discuss several women’s mission theories to be analyzed based on a feminist perspective, specifically gender analysis. In the final part, I highlight the narrative of women on mission as the work of the Holy Spirit on mission history. I specifically delve into missionary women in the Nias context. Peran Roh Kudus sering kali dipandang sebagai “pelengkap” dalam relasi Trinitas. Demikian pula dengan peran perempuan dalam narasi misi turut sering dipandang sebagai pelengkap. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengelaborasi konsep Roh Kudus sebagai arche Trinitas sebagai basis kesetaraan gender bagi perempuan dalam narasi misi. Untuk tujuan tersebut, saya menekankan kembali keutamaan peran Roh Kudus sebagai arche Trinitatian sebagai basis bagi kesetaraan gender. Saya juga membahas beberapa teori misi perempuan untuk dianalisis berdasarkan perspektif feminis secara khusus analisis gender. Pada bagian akhir, saya mengangkat narasi perempuan dalam misi sebagai karya Roh Kudus dalam perjalanan misi. Saya secara khusus membahas perempuan misionaris dalam konteks Nias.     Sekolah Tinggi Filsafat Theologi Jakarta, Indonesia 2024-04-30 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion double-blind peer-reviewed article application/pdf https://www.theologiainloco.com/ojs/index.php/sttjournal/article/view/294 10.55935/thilo.v6i1.294 Theologia in Loco; Vol. 6 No. 1 (2024): Theologia in Loco; 1-20 Theologia in Loco; Vol 6 No 1 (2024): Theologia in Loco; 1-20 2621-4911 2621-4903 10.55935/thilo.v6i1 ind https://www.theologiainloco.com/ojs/index.php/sttjournal/article/view/294/98 Copyright (c) 2024 Oinike Harefa https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0

Building Peace in Indonesia Through the Tradition of Eating Nasi Tumpeng: Interfaith Dialogue at the Grassroots Level Membangun Perdamaian di Indonesia melalui Tradisi Makan Nasi Tumpeng: Dialog Antaragama di Tingkat Akar Rumput Gunawan, Linna Indonesia konflik dialog antaragama pembangunan perdamaian nonviolence tradisi lokal tradisi makan Nasi Tumpeng interreligious dialogue conflict Indonesia peacebuilding nonviolence local tradition Nasi Tumpeng eating tradition   Is there a way to build peace without violence in Indonesia? The question arises as a reflection of the complexity of conflict in Indonesia. In answering this question, this article provides a description of the causes of conflict from conflict theory and seeks its equivalence with several conflict events in Indonesia. Furthermore, David P. Barash’s peacebuilding theory appears in this article as an alternative to building peace; specifically, Marianne Farina’s nonviolence peace theory becomes the author’s choice for peacebuilding in Indonesia. With the aim of providing a concrete example of a nonviolent peacebuilding approach, this article describes an interfaith dialogue using a local Indonesian tradition, namely eating Nasi Tumpeng, as a first step of the approach. This tradition provides a space for the creation of interfaith dialogue at the grassroots level to discuss conflicts using the values contained in this eating tradition, namely strong relational values between humans and God, fellow humans, and even the environment. Adakah cara membangun perdamaian tanpa kekerasan di Indonesia? Pertanyaan muncul sebagai refleksi dari persoalan konflik di Indonesia yang kompleks.  Dalam menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, artikel ini memberikan deskripsi dari penyebab konflik dari teori konflik dan mencari padanannya dengan beberapa peristiwa konflik di Indonesia. Lebih lanjut, paparan teori peacebuilding milik David Barash muncul dalam artikel ini, sebagai beberapa alternatif untuk membangun perdamaian; dan secara spesifik teori perdamaian nonviolence milik Marriane Farina menjadi pilihan penulis untuk peacebuilding di Indonesia.  Dengan tujuan memberi contoh konkrit dari pendekatan peacebuilding nonviolence, artikel ini memaparkan jalan dialog lintas agama dengan menggunakan tradisi lokal Indonesia, yaitu makan Nasi Tumpeng sebagai langkah awal dari jalan membangun perdamaian tanpa kekerasan. Tradisi ini memberi ruang bagi terciptanya dialog lintas agama di tingkat akar rumput untuk membicarakan konflik dengan menggunakan nilai-nilai yang terkandung dalam tradisi makan ini yaitu nilai relasional yang kuat antara manusia dengan Tuhan, sesama manusia bahkan lingkungan.

Crisis in the Reception of the Sacrament of Penance by Catholic: A Research at the Parish of Santo Paulus Pulo Brayan Bengkel Medan Crisis in the Reception of the Sacrament of Penance by Catholic: A Research at the Parish of Santo Paulus Pulo Brayan Bengkel Medan Tibo, Paulinus Simarmata, Petrus Tamba, Krisdame Reception Sacrament Repentance Catholics The Sacrament of Penance, according to the teachings of the Catholic Church, is a means of forgiveness of sins and restoration of a personal relationship with God. Through this sacrament, God forgives man's sins and restores his relationship with Himself. The purpose of the sacrament is not only to absolve the recipient from sin, but also to encourage them to make a strong commitment to refrain from sin in the future. The principal objective of this study is to ascertain the comprehension of Catholics regarding the sacrament of penance and Catholics' participation in receiving the Sacrament. This research focuses on the parishioners of Santo Paulus Pulo Brayan Bengkel Medan. This research employs a qualitative methodology. Data were gathered through observation of the reception of the sacrament of penance, interviews with informants to ascertain their understanding and practice of receiving the sacrament of penance, and the examination of relevant documentation. This was followed by data analysis, data reduction, data presentation, source triangulation and technique triangulation. The research reveals that Catholics have poor understanding of the sacrament of penance. The groups that are more eager to receive the Sacrament of Penance are the groups of mothers, the elderly and children. We classify these findings into the following categories: Firstly, people's understanding of the sacrament of Penance is minimal, which affects their participation in receiving the sacrament. Secondly, the implementation aspect includes both the preparation and the execution phases. The research shows that most people are not adequately prepared for confession and are not ready for its execution. This fact shows the need to educate and motivate people through catechesis so that they have a correct understanding of the importance of the sacrament of Penance.

Is the Church Untruth? Reading Kierkegaard’s Critique of the Crowd in Light of the New Testament Ecclesiology Lumbanbatu, Kornelius critique of the crowd ecclesiology New Testament Søren Kierkegaard the church untruth New Testament Ecclesiology Søren Kierkegaard This study seeks to enrich the contemporary discourse of the thought of Søren Kierkegaard by positing an analysis of the ecclesiology of the New Testament according to the Danish thinker’s critique of the crowd. Through a literature study on both topics, I try to indicate whether Kierkegaard would consider the church untruth based on its similarity to his depiction of the crowd. Such a literature study is delineated in a three-segmented explanation, each focusing on Kierkegaard’s view of the crowd, the New Testament portrayal of the church, and the intersections between the two. Eventually, I conclude that Kierkegaard would indeed perceive the church as an embodiment of the crowd and consider it untruth. Such a conclusion demands further study on the validity of Kierkegaard’s understanding of Christ, as it confirms the potential aporia that haunts his critique of the crowd when read in light of the New Testament ecclesiology.

An Anti-Violent Pedagogy: Reading Parent-Child Relations through the Lens of Decolonial Theory Sebuah Pedagogy Anti-Kekerasan: Membaca Relasi Orang Tua dan Anak melalui Lensa Teori Dekolonial Matatula, Christy Verbal abuse colonialization postcolonial decolonial Anti-violent pedagogy Kekerasan verbal kolonialisasi pascakolonial dekolonial Pedagogi anti-kekerasan Western colonization presents the domination system of authorities to the marginalized (subaltern). The authorities colonize based on their interest in the subaltern. The model of colonization has an impact on various aspects of life, including the system of education. The system of pedagogy is in charge of various systems, including family, as shown in the relationship between parents and children. Sometimes, parents posit themselves as the authorities and children as the subalterns. In some conditions, its domination has the potential to turn into a kind of verbal abuse that harms children. In response to the issue, I employ postcolonial theory to identify and transform the dominion system of others to an egalitarian system of education. In conclusion, this study aims to revisit the system of education based on decolonial theory as a proposal alternative and solution as Marshall B. Rosenberg proposes on anti-violent communication. Kolonialisasi barat hadir dengan sistem dominasi para penguasa terhadap kelompok yang dianggap lemah (subaltern). Para penguasa mengolonisasi sesuai kehendak mereka kepada kelompok subaltern. Model Kolonialisasi tersebut telah membawa dampak pada segala aspek kehidupan, termasuk sistem pendidikan. Pendidikan terjadi di berbagai tempat, termasuk di dalam rumah yang melibatkan orang tua dan anak. Orang tua memposisikan dirinya sebagai penguasa dan anak sebagai subaltern. Dominasi dari orang tua ditunjukkan melalui kekerasan verbal yang membawa dampak negatif pada anak. Dengan adanya hal tersebut, teori pascakolonial menjadi respons untuk mengubah sistem kekuasaan yang dominan terhadap orang lain dengan menjunjung kesetaraan bagi setiap orang. Sebagai kesimpulan, tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji ulang sistem pendidikan dari lensa dekolonial dengan tawaran solutif dari Marshall B. Rosenberg tentang komunikasi anti-kekerasan.

Breaking Down the Barriers: A Study of Postcolonial Ethics as an Effort to Tear Down Discrimination against Homosexuals Mendobrak Sekat Pembatas: Suatu Kajian Etika Poskolonial Sebagai Upaya Merobohkan Diskriminasi terhadap Homoseksual Purba, Fredi Ardo Homosexuality Discriminate Liminality Homi K. Bhabha Homoseksualitas Diskriminasi Liminalitas Homi K. Bhabha Homosexuality is still an issue that has its pros and cons. Very few churches in Indonesia are open to those with homosexual orientation. Churches tend to reject and discriminate against homosexuals as actions that are against the Bible and against God’s will. This is due to the view of heteronormativity, which is the view that heterosexuality is the truth and must be owned. Heteronormativity is a colony culture that is still inherent today. It creates hegemony and domination between heteronormativity (colonizer) and homosexuality (colonized). However, how should the church respond to homosexuality in postcolonial discourse? The research was conducted using the literature study method by reviewing Homi K. Bhabha’s liminality theory. The research was conducted with the aim of being a postcolonial effort in providing space between the colonizer (heteronormativity) and the colonized (homosexuality) to conduct cultural negotiations. The results showed that Postcolonial ethics with the perspective of Bhabha’s liminality theory formed a relationship of cultural exchange by heteronormativity with homosexuality, creating an attitude of acceptance. This has an impact on the church's attitude that is inclusive of homosexuality and does not discriminate. The church should view homosexuality as a reality of gender diversity. Homoseksual masih menjadi isu yang menuai pro dan kontra. Gereja-gereja di Indonesia masih sangat sedikit yang terbuka terhadap mereka yang berorientasi homoseksual. Gereja-gereja cenderung bersikap menolak dan mendiskriminasi homoseksual sebagai tindakan yang bertentangan dengan Alkitab dan melawan kehendak Tuhan. Hal tersebut disebabkan adanya pandangan heteronormativitas, yaitu pandangan bahwa heteroseksual merupakan sebuah kebenaran dan harus dimiliki. Heteronormativitas merupakan budaya koloni yang masih melekat sampai saat ini. Hal tersebut menciptakan hegemoni dan dominasi antara heteronormativitas (penjajah) dengan homoseksualitas (terjajah). Namun, bagaimana seharusnya sikap gereja menyikapi homoseksualitas dalam wacana poskolonial? Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode studi pustaka dengan meninjau teori liminalitas dari Homi K. Bhabha. Penelitian dilakukan dengan tujuan sebagai upaya poskolonial dalam memberikan ruang antara terhadap penjajah (heteronormativitas) dengan terjajah (homoseksualitas) untuk melakukan negosiasi budaya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa etika poskolonial dengan perspektif teori liminalitas Bhabha membentuk relasi pertukaran budaya oleh heteronormativitas dengan homoseksualitas sehingga menciptakan sikap penerimaan. Hal tersebut berdampak pada sikap gereja yang inklusif terhadap homoseksualitas dan tidak melakukan diskriminasi. Gereja harus memandang homoseksualitas sebagai sebuah realitas keragaman gender.

Humanity and the Challenge of Transhumanism: A Constructive Theological Study of the Bionic Human through the Concept of Christ’s Perichoresis Manusia dan Tantangan Transhumanisme: Kajian Teologi Konstruktif terhadap Bionic Human dengan Konsep Perikhoresis Kristus Simanjuntak, Yohana Sri Bintang Marpaung, Frans Best Soma Perichoresis human technology transhumanism bionic human Constructive theology ongoing process hypostatic union Perichoresis manusia teknologi transhumanism manusia bionik teologi konstruktif proses penyatuan hipostatik This article explores the theological conception of humanity within the framework of technological advancement, particularly Transhumanism, through the lens of John of Damascus’s concept of Christ’s perichoresis. The perichoreticconcept demonstrates that Christ, as a single person, embodies two distinct natures—divinity and humanity. In perichoresis, these two natures, while distinct, inhabit one another, allowing for mutual presence and interaction. They give space to each other, encircle one another, and move towards one another in an interpenetrative yet unconfused union, remaining undivided and inseparable. In the Transhumanist era, human existence through robotic enhancements (bionic humans) mirrors the dynamic of perichoresis, representing the coexistence of two distinct elements: the biological and the robotic. These elements inhabit and interact with each other, complementing and permeating one another, without subsuming or eliminating either. Thus, the perichoresis of Christ, as articulated by John of Damascus, serves as a constructive metaphor for understanding human identity in an age of technological integration, which dynamics and becoming. Artikel ini mengkaji pemahaman teologis tentang kemanusiaan dalam konteks perkembangan teknologi, khususnya Transhumanisme, dengan menggunakan konsep perikhoresis Kristus menurut Yohanes dari Damaskus. Konsep perikhoresis menunjukkan bahwa Kristus, sebagai satu pribadi, memiliki dua hakikat yang berbeda—yaitu keilahian dan kemanusiaan. Dalam perikhoresis, kedua hakikat ini, meskipun berbeda, saling menghuni, memberikan ruang satu sama lain, saling berputar, bergerak menuju satu sama lain, dan saling meresapi dalam suatu kesatuan yang tidak tercampur, tidak terbagi, dan tidak terpisahkan. Keberadaan manusia di era Transhumanisme yang menggunakan teknologi robotik (manusia bionik) mencerminkan dinamika perikhoresis, yang menunjukkan adanya dua unsur berbeda, yaitu tubuh biologis dan tubuh robotik. Kedua unsur ini saling menghuni, berhubungan, melengkapi, dan meresapi satu sama lain tanpa menghilangkan salah satu unsur. Dengan demikian, konsep perikhoresis Kristus menurut Yohanes dari Damaskus dapat digunakan sebagai metafora konstruktif untuk memahami identitas manusia di era integrasi teknologi yang dinamis dan becoming.

However, the GKPI itself as a Lutheran church rejects the idea of children participating in Holy Communion. This article departs from qualitative methods and uses a constructive theology approach, which aims to construct a theological understanding that children are also part of Communio Sanctorum and also participate in Holy Communion. Thus, through the theory of Being as Communion according to John Zizioulas, it can provide a relevant view for the GKPI in understanding Holy Communion for children, because children are also part of the Communio Sanctorum, Holy Communion is God's gift to all people and the experience of faith is not only a matter of theological formulation but also intuitive and emotional matters. Artikel ini membahas keterlibatan anak-anak dalam Perjamuan Kudus di GKPI dengan menggunakan teori Being as Communion menurut John Zizioulas. Artikel ini dilatarbelakangi oleh pemahaman bahwa Perjamuan Kudus sebagai salah satu sakramen merupakan anugerah bagi semua orang. Namun, GKPI sebagai gereja yang menganut aliran Lutheran menolak untuk mengikutsertakan anak-anak dalam Perjamuan Kudus karena belum melalui katekisasi sidi sebagai syarat mutlak. Dalam memenuhi tujuan penulisan, penulis menggunakan studi literatur melalui pendekatan teologi konstruktif, yang bertujuan untuk meng-konstruksi pemahaman teologis bahwa anak-anak juga bagian dari Communio Sanctorum dan perlu diikut-sertakan dalam Perjamuan Kudus. Melalui teori Being as Communion menurut John Zizioulas, penulis menawarkan pandangan yang relevan bagi GKPI dalam menciptakan Perjamuan Kudus yang terbuka bagi anak-anak sebagai bagian dari Communio Sanctorum. Penulis menyimpulkan bahwa Perjamuan Kudus merupakan anugerah Allah bagi semua orang, yang tidak dapat dibatasi hanya pada pemahaman teologis, tetapi juga harus mencakup hal-hal yang intuitif serta emosional.

An Ecotheological Analysis of the Hymnbook Kidung Keesaan from the Perspective of the Church Unity Document of the Communion of Churches in Indonesia Analisis Ekoteologi dalam Buku Nyanyian Kidung Keesaan dalam Sudut Pandang Dokumen Keesaan Gereja Persekutuan Gereja-gereja di Indonesia Elia, Natanael Budiman Ekoteologi, Kidung Keesaan, Nyanyian Jemaat, Dokumen Keesaan Gereja, Pelestarian Lingkungan. This study explores the role of hymns in Kidung Keesaan as a medium for conveying ecological theology within the context of Indonesian churches. The analysis of hymn lyrics reveals that key principles of ecotheology, such as the recognition of nature as God's creation, harmony within creation, and God's continuous sustenance, are clearly reflected. These hymns encourage congregations to care for and preserve the environment as an act of faith. However, there is room for further development in aligning ecotheological messages with practical actions in congregational life. The study recommends a more applied approach in utilizing church hymns as educational tools and promoting ecological action among congregations. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi peran nyanyian dalam Kidung Keesaan sebagai media untuk menyampaikan ekoteologi dalam konteks gereja-gereja di Indonesia. Analisis terhadap syair-syair nyanyian menunjukkan bahwa prinsip-prinsip ekoteologi, seperti pengakuan alam sebagai ciptaan Allah, harmoni dalam ciptaan, dan penyertaan Allah dalam pemeliharaan alam, tercermin dengan jelas. Nyanyian-nyanyian tersebut mengajak jemaat untuk menjaga dan melestarikan lingkungan sebagai bentuk tanggung jawab iman. Meskipun demikian, terdapat ruang untuk pengembangan lebih lanjut dalam menyelaraskan pesan ekoteologi dengan tindakan praktis dalam kehidupan jemaat. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan pendekatan yang lebih aplikatif dalam memanfaatkan nyanyian gereja sebagai sarana pendidikan dan aksi ekologis di kalangan jemaat.

Jesus the Dragon: Contextualizing Christology within the Spiritual Experience of Chinese Indonesians Yesus Sang Naga: Kontekstualisasi Kristologi Dalam Penghayatan Orang Tionghoa Di Indonesia Sutanto, Florencia Paramitha Hapsari Hendra Wahju Satria Wibowo Naga Kristen Tionghoa Alkitab Budaya Tionghoa Dualitas Identitas Dragon Chinese Christians in Indonesia Bible Chinese Culture Contextualization There was a time when Chinese Christians in Indonesia were prohibited from using symbols such as dragons, tigers, and snakes, which some Christian groups considered representations of evil. Items depicting dragons were recommended to be discarded after being prayed over, as the dragon is often used as a symbol of evil in the Bible. However, in Chinese culture, the dragon is seen as a positive and sacred symbol representing strength, luck, and wisdom. Birth rates increase during the Year of the Dragon, as it is believed to bring good fortune and success. This research examines the correlation between the understanding of Jesus in Christian belief and the dragon in Chinese culture, aiming to resolve the confusion faced by Chinese Christians in Indonesia regarding their dual identity. The dragon mentioned in the Bible is difficult to comprehend from the perspective of Chinese culture because the concepts differ. For Chinese Christians, exploring the symbolic meaning of the dragon in the Bible should be accompanied by a deeper understanding of their own cultural anthropology. It is important to note that the dragon in the Bible actually stems from Western cultural concepts, and understanding this difference is crucial for spiritual clarity. Failure to address this misconception can lead to the neglect or abandonment of Chinese cultural heritage, while considering European culture as superior. Therefore, it is essential to appreciate these conceptual differences as unique cultural riches without rejecting or replacing them, allowing each culture to value its own symbols while maintaining a rich and diverse cultural identity. Pada awal 1990-an, orang Tionghoa Kristen di Indonesia dilarang menggunakan simbol-simbol seperti naga, harimau, dan ular yang dianggap oleh beberapa kelompok Kristen fundamental sebagai representasi kejahatan. Benda-benda dengan gambar naga disarankan untuk dibuang setelah didoakan terlebih dahulu, karena dalam Alkitab naga sering dijadikan simbol kejahatan. Namun, dalam kebudayaan Tionghoa, naga dianggap baik dan sakral, melambangkan kekuatan, keberuntungan, dan kebijaksanaan. Pada tahun naga, angka kelahiran meningkat karena dipercaya membawa keberuntungan. Jika naga dipercaya oleh orang Tionghoa sebagai sesuatu yang baik, mengapa terdapat larangan penggunaan simbol ini? Apakah naga yang dihayati oleh orang Tionghoa memang berlawanan dengan Kristus? Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan antropologis Bevans untuk mengkaji kontekstualisasi kristologi di tengah masyarakat Tionghoa Kristen di Indonesia. Melalui pendekatan ini, kami berusaha menjembatani diskrepansi tersebut serta menyarankan umat Kristen Tionghoa untuk tidak takut atau bingung ketika hendak menggunakan simbol naga sebab ada titik temu antara konsep naga Tionghoa dengan Kristus yang dipercayai oleh orang Kristen. Pemahaman yang baru ini diharapkan dapat melestarikan identitas budaya Tionghoa sambil tetap menjaga kesetiaan pada ajaran Kristen, sehingga tercipta harmoni antara ajaran Alkitab dan tradisi lokal. Lewat penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa refleksi Tionghoa tentang naga justru dapat dijadikan pintu masuk dalam menghayati Yesus Kristus bagi orang Kristen Tionghoa di Indonesia.

Trauma Narrative, Anti-Jewish, and the Construction of Collective Identity of the Johannine Community: Rereading John 9 Through the Lens of Collective Trauma Narasi Trauma, Anti-Yahudi, dan Konstruksi Identitas Kolektif Komunitas Yohanian: Membaca Ulang Yohanes 9 Menggunakan Lensa Trauma Kolektif Kantohe, Finki Rianto Anti Jewish collective identity collective trauma Johannine community the expulsion of synagogue Gospel of John Anti Yahudi identitas kolektif komunitas Yohanian narasi trauma pengusiran dari sinagoga trauma kolektif Injil Yohanes Various studies have been conducted to understand the anti-Jewish narratives in the Gospel of John, yet the aspect of trauma is often overlooked. In this paper, I argue that collective trauma plays a significant role in the emergence of anti-Jewish narratives, particularly in John 9, which serves as a trauma narrative to interpret and construct the collective identity of the Johannine community following their expulsion from the synagogue. The article begins with a survey of the development of studies on the Jewish conflict with the Johannine community, along with my critique, followed by an explanation of Jeffrey Alexander's collective trauma theory and James Louis Martyn's two-level drama theory. The conclusion is that hatred toward Jews is not a theological truth or a historical statement from Jesus but part of the process of narrating trauma and constructing collective identity. This aims to prevent readers of John from becoming vicarious trauma carriers that perpetuate anti-Judaism Yohanes, namun aspek trauma kerap diabaikan. Dalam tulisan ini, saya berpendapat bahwa trauma kolektif memainkan peran penting dalam kemunculan narasi-narasi anti-Yahudi, khususnya di Yohanes 9, yang berfungsi sebagai narasi trauma untuk memaknai dan mengonstruksi identitas kolektif komunitas Yohanian yang mengalami pengusiran dari sinagoga. Artikel ini dimulai dengan survei perkembangan studi konflik Yahudi dan komunitas Yohanian disertai kritik saya, lalu menguraikan teori trauma kolektif dari Jeffrey Alexander dan prinsip pembacaan drama dua tingkat dari James Louis Martyn. Kesimpulannya, kebencian terhadap Yahudi bukanlah kebenaran teologis atau pernyataan historis dari Yesus, melainkan bagian dari proses narrating traumadan konstruksi identitas kolektif komunitas Yohanian sehingga pembaca Injil Yohanes terhindar dari potensi menjadi vicarious trauma, yang dapat meneruskan sikap anti-Yahudi.

Pela Gandong : An Attempt to Communicate Christ Into the Culture of Maluku Pela Gandong: Sebuah Upaya Mengkomunikasikan Kristus Ke Dalam Budaya Di Maluku Camerling, Yosua Feliciano Communication Christ Culture Pela Gandong Moluccas Komunikasi Kristus Budaya Pela Gandong Maluku Pela Gandong is a traditional kinship system indigenous to Maluku that has demonstrated a sustained capacity for maintaining social harmony and mediating conflict across communities, including between Muslim and Christian communities. Despite this significance, its potential as a bridge for Gospel communication within the framework of Indonesian contextual theology has not been systematically examined through an adequate cross-cultural communication framework. This study aims to analyze the values embedded in Pela Gandong and to assess their relevance as a medium for communicating Christ to the Malukan community. Drawing on a descriptive-qualitative approach and library research method, the study interprets Pela Gandong through the cross-cultural communication framework of David J. Hesselgrave. The study finds that Pela Gandong embodies three core values — social harmony, conflict mediation, and the instrumentalization of peace — that correspond substantively to Christian teachings on love, reconciliation, and shalom. This correspondence constitutes a theological point of contact through which the Gospel can be communicated contextually and organically, without compromising the integrity of local culture. These findings suggest that Pela Gandong can function as a legitimate cultural bridge in contextual missiological practice in Maluku, while also offering a replicable model for analogous approaches in other pluralistic cultural contexts across Indonesia. Pela Gandong merupakan sistem kekerabatan adat Maluku yang telah terbukti mampu menjaga harmoni sosial dan mediasi konflik lintas komunitas, termasuk antara komunitas Muslim dan Kristen. Meskipun demikian, potensi budaya ini sebagai jembatan komunikasi Injil dalam konteks teologi kontekstual Indonesia belum dikaji secara sistematis melalui kerangka komunikasi lintas budaya yang memadai. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis nilai-nilai yang tertanam dalam Pela Gandong dan mengkaji relevansinya sebagai medium komunikasi Kristus kepada masyarakat Maluku. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif-kualitatif dan metode studi kepustakaan, penelitian ini menafsirkan Pela Gandong melalui kerangka komunikasi lintas budaya David J. Hesselgrave. Penelitian menemukan bahwa Pela Gandong memuat tiga nilai inti — harmoni sosial, mediasi konflik, dan instrumentasi perdamaian — yang selaras secara substantif dengan ajaran Kristen tentang kasih, rekonsiliasi, dan shalom. Keselarasan ini membentuk titik kontak teologis yang memungkinkan Injil dikomunikasikan secara kontekstual dan organik, tanpa mengabaikan integritas budaya lokal. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa Pela Gandong dapat berfungsi sebagai jembatan budaya yang sah (legitimate cultural bridge) dalam praktik misiologi kontekstual di Maluku, sekaligus menawarkan model bagi pendekatan serupa di konteks budaya Indonesia yang pluralistik.

Sacrifice or Victim: A Theology of Offering to a Praxis of Thanksgiving Kurban atau Korban : Teologi Persembahan dari Selebrasi ke Aksi Rachman, Rasid hantaran balasan, kolekte, korban, persembahan, perjamuan Questioning the liturgy of the offering, which has been solemnly carried out but has become so common as a fundraiser for the church, is the starting point of revitalizing this discourse through research. Etymological study, liturgical study, biblical study, and customs, are tools to debunk the hypothesis that sacrifices and sacrifices have their own meanings, so that offerings do not stop only at the delivery of materials and properties at the banquet table. Andrea Bieler and Luise Schottroff, The Eucharist: Bodies, Bread, and Resurrection, inspired the theology of offerings in three forms, namely: vicarious offering and symbolic offering at the altar, and a reasonable offering as offering exchange in a real forms for outside of the church. Sending a gift as an offering of gratitude to God is a returning of gifts to other people and the earth. Kegelisahan mengikuti liturgi persembahan yang selama ini dijalankan dengan khidmat tetapi telah sangat biasa sebagai pengumpulan uang bagi gereja adalah titik berangkat merevitalisasi diskursus ini melalui penelitian. Penelusuran etimologi, kajian liturgis, kajian biblis, dan adat, merupakan alat untuk membutikan hipotesis bahwa kurban dan korban memiliki makna masing-masing, sehingga persembahan tidak berhenti hanya pada hantaran materi dan properti umat di meja perjamuan. Andrea Bieler dan Luise Schottroff, The Eucharist: Bodies, Bread, dan Resurrection, menginspirasi teologi persembahan di altar dalam tiga wujud hantaran: vicarious offering dan symbolical offering, ke luar gereja sebagai hantaran balasan (offering exchange) berwujud reasonable offering. Hantaran balasan adalah persembahan syukur umat kepada Allah yang dikembalikan kepada orang-orang lain dan bumi.

Historiography of Local Churches in Indonesia: The Urgency of Preserving Archives and Written History of Local Churches Historiografi Gereja-gereja Lokal di Indonesia: Urgensi Preservasi Arsip-arsip dan Penulisan Sejarah Gereja- gereja Lokal Sembiring, William Wahyu Historiography memories local churches formal history pluralistic historiography historiografi memori gereja lokal sejarah formal pluralistik historiografi Local churches in Indonesia hold a rich deposit of theological and historical memory rooted in the founding faith experiences of their communities, yet this deposit is under threat due to limited institutional awareness and capacity for preservation. At the same time, scholarly engagement with the historiography of local Indonesian churches — particularly work that offers a directly applicable methodological framework — remains scarce in the literature of Indonesian Christian theology and history. This article aims to construct a theoretical and practical foundation for local churches in Indonesia to undertake archival preservation and begin writing their church histories in a systematic manner. Drawing on a literature review and conceptual analysis, the article argues that local churches bear a theological and historical responsibility to save and preserve their memories (saving memories), and that this responsibility can be fulfilled through two complementary methodological approaches: formal history and pluralistic historiography. These findings indicate that the application of both approaches enables local churches not only to conserve past memory but also to transform it into historical narrative that contributes to a richer understanding of the development of Christianity in Indonesia. Gereja-gereja lokal di Indonesia menyimpan kekayaan memori teologis dan historis yang tumbuh langsung dari pengalaman iman komunitas pendirinya, namun kekayaan ini terancam hilang akibat minimnya kesadaran dan kapasitas institusional untuk melakukan preservasi. Sementara itu, kajian tentang historiografi gereja lokal Indonesia — khususnya yang menawarkan kerangka metodologis yang dapat langsung dipraktikkan — masih sangat terbatas dalam literatur teologi dan sejarah Kristen di Indonesia. Artikel ini bertujuan membangun basis teoritis dan praksis bagi gereja-gereja lokal di Indonesia untuk melakukan preservasi arsip dan memulai penulisan sejarah gerejanya secara sistematis. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan studi literatur dan analisis konseptual, artikel ini berargumen bahwa gereja lokal memikul tanggung jawab teologis dan historis untuk menyelamatkan serta memelihara memorinya (saving memories), dan bahwa tanggung jawab ini dapat diwujudkan melalui dua pendekatan metodologis yang saling melengkapi: sejarah formal (formal history) dan historiografi pluralistik (pluralistic historiography). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa penerapan kedua pendekatan tersebut memungkinkan gereja lokal tidak hanya melestarikan ingatan masa lalu, tetapi juga mengolahnya menjadi narasi sejarah yang berkontribusi pada pemahaman yang lebih kaya tentang perkembangan kekristenan di Indonesia.

Understanding and Role of Protestant and Catholic Religious Education Teachers in the Ecumenical Movement in Public and Private High Schools Pemahaman dan Peran Guru Pendidikan Agama Protestan dan Katolik dalam Gerakan Ekumenisme di SMA atau SMK Negeri dan Swasta Umum Subali, Yohanes Pangestu, Yanuarius Andhika, Leonardus Ekumenisme Rohkris Rohkat Guru Agama Persaudaraan Teori Perkembangan Iman Ecumenism Rohkris Rohkat Religion Teacher Fellowship Faith Development Theory This research focuses on the ecumenical movement within the scope of public and private senior high schools (SMA/SMK) in Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta. The subjects of this research are Protestant and Catholic Religious Education teachers, identified as initiators of ecumenical encounters. The research topics explored include the teachers' understanding of ecumenism and their role in fostering it through collaboration with Christian and Catholic Spiritual organizations in their respective schools. Drawing on James Fowler's theory of faith development, the study also aimed to evaluate the extent to which this collaboration supports students' faith development in relation to their current stages. The study employed a quantitative data analysis method using questionnaire distribution. The results indicate that the teachers understand the ecumenical movement as a means of promoting brotherhood among Christian students, which is realized through joint activities. This ecumenical movement, while serving as a commendable model, must also be evaluated to achieve the ideal state of students' faith development. Their collaboration should provide a space for sharing experiences and mutual strengthening in the process of faith development toward maturity. Penelitian ini berfokus pada gerakan ekumenisme akar rumput dalam lingkup SMA/SMK Negeri dan Swasta Umum di Kabupaten Sleman, Yogyakarta. Subjek penelitian ini adalah para guru Pendidikan Agama Kristen dan Katolik. Topik penelitian yang ditelusuri mencakup pemahaman para guru mengenai ekumenisme dan peran mereka untuk mengusahakannya dalam kolaborasi organisasi Rohani Kristen dan Katolik di sekolah mereka masing-masing. Penelitian menggunakan metode analisis data kuantitatif melalui penyebaran kuesioner. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa para guru memahami gerakan ekumenis sebagai sarana persaudaraan bagi peserta didik Kristen dan Katolik yang terwujud dalam kegiatan-kegiatan bersama. Dalam bingkai teori perkembangan iman James Fowler, gerakan ekumenis akar rumput ini juga menjadi ruang berbagi pengalaman dan saling menguatkan dalam proses perkembangan iman menuju kedewasaan.

Ethical Boundaries of AI Users: The Philosophical Approach of Utilitarianism, Deontology, and Nicomachean Ethics in the Context of Education Batas-batas Penggunaan AI: Pendekatan Filsafat Utilitarianisme, Deontologi, dan Nicomachean Ethics dalam Konteks Pendidikan Wahyudi, Antono happiness pleasure appregate consequentialism maxim categorical imperative virtue activity rationality experience machine authentic experience kebahagiaan kenikmatan agregat konsekuensialisme maxim imperatif kategoris aktivitas kebajikan rasionalitas experience machine pengalaman otentik The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) through outline-based prompt engineering, referred The emergence of outline-based prompt engineering — referred to in this study as Prompting Outline Production — has produced troubling phenomena in academic environments, such as claims of “writing 300 pages in three weeks, ready to publish.” Despite growing concern, the ethical dimensions of this practice have not yet been examined systematically through a comprehensive framework of ethical philosophy. This study aims to analyze the ethical limits of Prompting Outline Production through three philosophical perspectives: utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics. Drawing on a literature review and Gadamer’s philosophical-hermeneutical method of horizon fusion applied to the thought of Jeremy Bentham, Immanuel Kant, and Aristotle — and reinforced by Robert Nozick’s concept of the experience machine — the study finds that utilitarianism and deontology yield neutral verdicts on Prompting Outline Production and are therefore insufficient as determinants of its ethical limits. Virtue ethics and the experience machine concept, by contrast, identify two essential ethical boundaries: rationality as the natural function of the human person, and authentic experience as existential meaning-making. From these two boundaries, the study identifies three distinct areas of AI use — reference searching, data processing, and outline development — each carrying a different ethical categorization. These findings offer a conceptual foundation for revising AI use policies in educational institutions, particularly in building a regulatory framework rooted in the values of human formation rather than mere productive efficiency. Kemunculan teknik prompt engineering berbasis kerangka tulisan — yang dalam penelitian ini disebut Prompting Outline Production — telah menghasilkan fenomena yang mengkhawatirkan di lingkungan akademik, seperti klaim “menulis 300 halaman dalam tiga minggu, siap publish.” Meskipun demikian, diskursus etis tentang praktik ini belum dikaji secara sistematis melalui kerangka filsafat etika yang komprehensif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis batas-batas etis Prompting Outline Production melalui tiga perspektif filsafat etika: utilitarianisme, deontologi, dan etika keutamaan. Dengan menggunakan studi literatur dan metode hermeneutika-filosofis fusi horizon Gadamer terhadap pemikiran Jeremy Bentham, Immanuel Kant, dan Aristoteles — diperkuat oleh konsep experience machine Robert Nozick — penelitian ini menemukan bahwa utilitarianisme dan deontologi bersifat netral terhadap Prompting Outline Production sehingga tidak memadai sebagai penentu batas etisnya. Sebaliknya, etika keutamaan dan konsep experience machine mengidentifikasi dua batas etis yang esensial: rasionalitas sebagai fungsi kodrati manusia, dan pengalaman otentik sebagai pemaknaan eksistensial. Bertolak dari kedua batas ini, penelitian mengidentifikasi tiga area penggunaan AI — pencarian referensi, pengolahan data, dan pengembangan outline — dengan kategorisasi etis yang berbeda untuk masing-masing area. Temuan ini menawarkan landasan konseptual bagi revisi kebijakan penggunaan AI di lembaga pendidikan, khususnya dalam membangun kerangka regulasi yang berakar pada nilai-nilai pembentukan manusia, bukan sekadar efisiensi produktivitas.

Philosophical Analysis of Absurdism and Christian Hope in the Context of Church Closures in Indonesia - Analisis Filsafat Absurdisme dan Harapan Kristen pada Kasus Penutupan Gereja di Indonesia Manalu, Musdodi absurdisme Camus diskriminasi Kristen Indonesia filsafat eksistensial intoleransi beragama revolt Sisyphus teologi penderitaan Camus’s absurdism Christian discrimination Indonesia contextual theology of the cross existential philosophy religious intolerance revolt Sisyphus theology of suffering Religious intolerance against Christians in Indonesia — ranging from prohibitions on worship to the destruction of church buildings — raises urgent existential questions about how recurring suffering can be understood and responded to theologically. While the theology of the cross offers a framework for making sense of such suffering, its dialogue with absurdist philosophy, which confronts suffering directly and without recourse to transcendent hope, remains underexplored in Indonesian contextual theology. This article aims to analyze the points of convergence and divergence between Albert Camus’s absurdism, particularly the figure of Sisyphus, and the theology of the suffering of Christ’s cross as a reflective framework for oppressed Christians. Drawing on a library research method and philosophical-theological discourse analysis applied to Camus’s writings, theological literature on the suffering of Christ, and documentation of intolerance cases, the article identifies three points of both convergence and divergence: both acknowledge suffering as a recurring and unavoidable burden; both require active consciousness in bearing it; yet they differ fundamentally in their ultimate orientation — Sisyphus chooses revolt without transcendent hope, while Christian faith endures in the hope of salvation. Rather than cancelling each other out, absurdism and the theology of the cross function as a dialogical mirror that sharpens theological understanding of suffering while offering concrete ethical and existential resources for oppressed Christian communities in Indonesia. Fenomena intoleransi beragama terhadap umat Kristen di Indonesia — mulai dari pelarangan beribadah hingga perusakan gereja — menimbulkan pertanyaan eksistensial yang mendesak tentang bagaimana penderitaan yang berulang dapat dipahami dan direspons secara teologis. Meskipun teologi salib menawarkan kerangka untuk memaknai penderitaan semacam ini, dialognya dengan filsafat absurdisme yang secara langsung menghadapi penderitaan tanpa harapan transenden belum banyak dieksplorasi dalam teologi kontekstual Indonesia. Artikel ini bertujuan menganalisis titik-titik persinggungan dan perbedaan antara absurdisme Albert Camus, khususnya figur Sisyphus, dan teologi penderitaan salib Kristus sebagai kerangka reflektif bagi umat Kristen yang tertindas. Dengan menggunakan studi pustaka dan analisis wacana filosofis-teologis terhadap karya Camus, literatur teologis penderitaan Kristus, dan dokumentasi kasus intoleransi, artikel ini menemukan tiga titik persinggungan sekaligus perbedaan: keduanya mengakui penderitaan sebagai beban yang berulang dan tak terelakkan; keduanya mensyaratkan kesadaran aktif dalam menanggungnya; namun berbeda secara fundamental dalam orientasi akhir — Sisyphus memilih revolt tanpa harapan transenden, sementara iman Kristen bertahan dalam pengharapan akan keselamatan. Absurdisme dan teologi salib, alih-alih saling meniadakan, berfungsi sebagai cermin dialogis yang mempertajam pemahaman teologis tentang penderitaan sekaligus menawarkan sumber daya etis dan eksistensial yang konkret bagi komunitas Kristen yang tertindas di Indonesia.

Prayer as a Form of Life: Clement of Alexandria Beyond Ritual Practice Doa sebagai suatu Bentuk Kehidupan: Klemens dari Aleksandria Melampaui Praktik Ritual Sendjaja, Hendri Mulyana Clement of Alexandria Christian spirituality gnōsis life transformation Logos Paedagogos prayer Stromateis theōria Patristic Spirituality Prayer Clement of Alexandria doa gnōsis Klemens dari Aleksandria Logos Paedagogos spiritualitas Kristen Stromateis theōria tranformasi hidup Spiritualitas Patristik Doa Klemens dari Aleksandria This article explores Clement of Alexandria’s understanding of prayer by examining the Paedagogos and Stromateis VII as an integrated theological body of work. Using a historical-hermeneutical approach and textual-theological analysis, it argues that Clement views prayer as a formative spiritual habitus that combines self-discipline, relational knowledge, and contemplative stillness. In the Paedagogos, prayer functions as a pedagogical dynamic that shapes desire and cultivates virtue through the Logos’s presence in the rhythms of daily life. In Stromateis VII, prayer is depicted as an ongoing inner conversation with God, marking spiritual maturity through participation in divine life. Consequently, prayer is not merely a ritual practice but an existential transformation that heals and restores personal integrity while deepening the believer’s engagement with love in the world. Artikel ini mengkaji pemahaman Klemens dari Alexandria tentang doa dengan menganalisis Paedagogos dan Stromateis VII sebagai karya teologis terintegrasi. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan historis-hermeneutis dan analisis teks-teologis, artikel ini berargumen bahwa Klemens memandang doa sebagai habitus spiritual yang formatif, yang menggabungkan disiplin diri, pengetahuan relasional, dan keheningan kontemplatif. Dalam Paedagogos, doa berfungsi sebagai dinamika pedagogis yang membentuk hasrat dan menumbuhkan kebajikan melalui kehadiran Logos dalam ritme kehidupan sehari-hari. Dalam Stromateis VII, doa digambarkan sebagai percakapan batin yang berkelanjutan dengan Allah, menandai kedewasaan spiritual melalui partisipasi dalam kehidupan ilahi. Sebagai konsekuensinya, doa bukan sekadar praktik ritual, melainkan transformasi eksistensial yang menyembuhkan dan memulihkan integritas pribadi sambil memperdalam keterlibatan diri orang beriman dengan kasih di dunia.
