Abstract

Perkembangan teologi Kristen di Indonesia dalam beberapa dekade terakhir menunjukkan dinamika yang kompleks, terutama dengan adanya polarisasi di antara komunitas Kristen. Polarisasi ini sering kali dipicu oleh perbedaan pendekatan terhadap teks Alkitab, tradisi liturgi, dan respons terhadap isu-isu sosial-politik. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi faktor-faktor yang melatarbelakangi polarisasi tersebut, termasuk pengaruh sejarah kolonial, interaksi dengan budaya lokal, serta dampak globalisasi dan modernitas. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan holistik dan studi literatur, tulisan ini menggali bagaimana polarisasi ini memengaruhi kesatuan komunitas Kristen dan persepsi masyarakat luas terhadap kekristenan. Selain itu, penelitian ini menawarkan kebaharuan melalui analisis mendalam terhadap potensi dialog dan rekonsiliasi di antara kelompok konservatif dan progresif. Peran organisasi ekumenis, seperti Persekutuan Gereja-Gereja di Indonesia, juga dibahas sebagai upaya menjembatani perbedaan. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi signifikan terhadap studi teologi di Indonesia, baik dalam konteks akademik maupun praktis, dengan menawarkan langkah-langkah konkret untuk memperkuat kesatuan dan relevansi kekristenan di tengah masyarakat pluralistik.

Abstract

This article explores the interaction between environmental theology and leadership in the context of Pope Francis' "Laudato Si'", with a particular focus on the role of Christian leaders in addressing environmental issues. Using descriptive qualitative methods, the study analyses the encyclical "Laudato Si'" and related Catholic Church documents. The article finds that theological concepts such as "Salvation and Liberation,""Obedience to God the Creator," and "Social and Ecological Justice" play an important role in shaping Christian leaders' attitudes and actions towards the environment. This article provides insights into how Christian leadership can inspire and mobilise environmentally responsible action, showing that this responsibility is not only a moral imperative, but also an expression of deep Christian faith.

Abstract

This article explores the theological paradox found in the Passion narrative of Christ as foretold in Gospel of Mark 8:31–33. The central focus of this study is to examine how the crucifixion of Jesus an event that outwardly appears to be an evil act inspired by the Devil and executed by sinful human hands can simultaneously be understood as Opus Dei, the supreme work of God for the salvation of humanity. This research applies a qualitative method using historical-critical exegesis combined with narrative theological analysis to uncover the deep theological meaning within the text. The analysis demonstrates that Mark intentionally portrays the tension between God’s sovereign redemptive plan and satanic opposition to emphasize the paradoxical character of a suffering Messiah. Through Peter, Satan attempts to divert Jesus from the path of suffering, but Jesus firmly rejects the temptation, affirming the cross as the will of the Father. Therefore, the crucifixion becomes the decisive moment where the forces of darkness are paradoxically employed by God to bring about His plan of redemption. This event embodies both Opus Diaboli and Opus Dei a point in salvation history where the greatest evil is ultimately overcome by the greatest love.

Abstract

Augustine's thinking on sin is one of the pillars of Christian theology, but it is often narrowed down to merely a moral transgression, rather than the existential condition of humanity after the Fall. In the modern context, marked by materialism and an increase in the intensity of worldly desires, this theological understanding needs to be re-examined. This study aims to analyze the relationship between Augustine's theological anthropology and the classification of three forms of sin in 1 John 2:16: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. Using a theological-hermeneutic qualitative analysis of patristic and biblical theology literature, this study presents a hermeneutic integration between Augustine's theology and John's hamartology. The results show that Augustine understands sin as misdirected love, namely the reversal of the human heart from God toward oneself (incurvatus in se), in line with the description of epithumia in 1 John. This study concludes that sin is an existential corruption of human nature manifested through disordered love. The novelty of this study lies in its integrative explanation of the relationship between Augustine's ordo amoris and the three categories of desire in 1 John 2:16, which enriches the theological understanding of the existential nature of sin in contemporary theological discourse.
