Abstract

This paper is aimed to determine the appropriate Christian attitude towards the practice of belis (dowry) in Sumba Island. The biblical, anthropological, and sociological concepts of dowry are the conceptual framework for understanding and analyzing the concept of belis. Based on systematic reviews and asymmetric comparisons of the Sumbanese belis concepts and biblical concept of dowry, it is found that rejection of the practice of belis is unnecessary. Belis can be practiced by Sumbanese Christians with a critical attitude. The goal is the transformation of the belis culture. Transformation is achieved through several actions: doing belis principles that do not conflict with biblical principles; rejecting the principles that conflict with biblical principles; and avoiding the practices of belis which have been distorted by deviating motivations either from the biblical or the rights belis principles. Keywords: Belis; Dowry; Marapu; Sumba; Cultural Transformation.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze and critique the Third Pentecostal Movement based on the Reformed theological concepts of continuity and discontinuity of the work of the Holy Spirit. This research was conducted using narrative analysis as an approach to discover and analyze the assumptions behind the narratives presented by supporters of the Third Pentecostal Movement. Through this approach, this research found that there is no continuity between the Third Pentecost and the true Pentecost in the Book of Acts, and even the nature of the Third Pentecost contradicts the nature of the true Pentecost, because this movement ignores objective efforts in the form of strict exegesis of the Bible to understand Pentecost and the various accompanying phenomena. The hope for true spiritual revival must always be accompanied by objective efforts in the form of strict biblical exegesis, which is reflected in apostolic preaching and rigorous doctrinal teaching. Because apostolic preaching and strict doctrinal teaching are the means of grace used by the Holy Spirit to protect the church from the spirit of revivalism and to produce genuine revival.
