Abstract

Circular Reasoning?: Answering the Problem of Circularity in the Doctrine of Internal Witness of the Holy Spirit. The doctrine of the internal testimony of the Holy Spirit was used by John Calvin to explain why Christians can believe in the Bible as the word of God. However, this doctrine is not free from problems especially related to the problem of circular reasoning, subjectivism, and is considered to ignore evidence and arguments. This paper tries to answer these problems by first discussing the nature and mechanism of the internal testimony of the Holy Spirit. Secondly, it attempts to answer these problems by using the concept of multilevel knowledge and acknowledging the existence of epistemic circularity. With the help of these concepts, the author will show that these problems can be answered well.

Abstract

Building Trinitarian Explanations and Ethical Attitudes Towards COVID-19 as Natural Evil. COVID-19 is a natural evil, namely an evil caused by a natural process that is not functioning properly because of the fall of humans into sins. The existence of COVID-19 as a natural evil will raise the question of why natural evil can exist, what is the purpose of natural evil, and how does this natural evil ends (the metaphysical problem of evil)? Another question is how the response or the attitude of the believers to the existence of this natural evil (the moral problem of evil)? The author tries to answer these two problems by using a trinitarian explanation of Christian metanarrative, namely from the point of God’s providence, the work of Jesus Christ on the cross, and the work of the Holy Spirit in the church. God in his sovereignty permits the natural evil of COVID-19 for the greater good. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, triumph over evil through His ministry on earth and on the cross. The Holy Spirit, sent by the Father and the Son, comforts and empowers the church to continues the mission of Jesus Christ.

Abstract

The rise of postmodernism correlated with the emergence of nonfoundationalist epistemology theory. Nonfoundationalist epistemology theory critiques foundationalism, particularly modern classical foundationalism.  In addition to providing a critique, this theory presents a viable option for Christian theology to be recognized as a legitimate epistemological theory for doing Christian theology. Nonetheless, the question of whether we can embrace nonfoundationalist epistemology in our theology comes up.  To respond to this inquiry, the author will examine the shortcomings of modern classical foundationalism, which led to the development of nonfoundationalism as an alternative, using literature research.  The evaluation of nonfoundationalism's perspectives and the theological issues it raises will follow.
