Abstract

Tithing is God's holy, in recognition that God is the owner and man is the servant. But in Deuteronomy 14:22-29 the fact is found that God's holy tithing can be used to buy everything he wants including intoxicating drinks, and even God ordered that the Israelites eat them together with the priests before God. The purpose of the study was to examine the history of the second tithing and its use in Deuteronomy 14:22-29 to find out the true purpose of God's commandments about spending tithing for whatever is desired, spending tithing on intoxicating beverages, and whether this is the legitimacy of God so that His people can currently consume liquor. Research methods are documentary research methods. This is done by evaluating various historical literature in the discussion of tithing festivals and their use. This researcher will conclude research to answer these questions. First of all, in the Bible there are three types of tithing.

Abstract

The practice of hermeneutics has become an inseparable part of human history. Hermeneutics as human activity arises from the need to interpret thoughts or texts written by others. A historical search reveals that there have been some changes in the principles of biblical hermeneutics. This paper aims to find out what are the principles of hermeneutics that developed from the early church up to the postmodern era. This paper is a historical approach using documentary research method. The results of this study state that there are at least three principles of biblical interpretation from the early church to postmodern times. First, the literal hermeneutics of the Bible was agreed upon by all early church Fathers, although contextual, grammatical, and historical interpretation of the Bible was emphasized by two church Fathers, namely Theodore and Chrysostom. This literal hermeneutics was used until the reform era. Second, modern hermeneutics refers to reason rather than the literal principle. This is the emerge of hermeneutics of relativism which bases truth on the senses and reasons. This principle agrees the application of rationalism to the Bible which leads to historical-critical. Third, contemporary (postmodern) hermeneutics is more towards a process of understanding that is temporary. This means that understanding has no clear boundaries, and that interpreters cannot reach a fully certain understanding. Thus, contemporary biblical hermeneutics is full of subjectivism, relativism, pluralism and is temporary.

Abstract

 Since Charles Darwin wrote his book on the theory of human evolution in 1859, the paradigm of Christians and even Christian theologians have partially endorsed it or at least tried to reconcile ideas about biblical creation and the theory of evolution. Attempts have been made in literary form by Christian theologians who strongly believe in the Bible but at the same time believe in evolution, in their effort to reconcile both. This paper attempts to examine the writings of several theologians on evolution and biblical creation, and then provide rebuttals regarding the views of those who try to reconcile six-day biblical creation with the millions of years of evolutionary theory, but override the authority of Scripture. The expected result in this paper is that the biblical authority and its validity in the story of God’s creation during the six days is literal and cannot be reconciled with the theory of evolution. This paper using a documentary research method, in which the primary resources are the theologians who believe in God and simultaneously believe in the theory of evolution. Secondary resources are needed as a comparison and provide input in connection with this research. AbstrakSejak Charles Darwin menulis bukunya tentang teori evolusi manusia pada tahun 1859, paradigma orang Kristen dan bahkan para teolog Kristen pun sebagian telah mendukungnya atau setidaknya mencoba menyelaraskan ide tentang penciptaan alkitabiah dan teori evolusi. Berbagai upaya telah dibuat dalam bentuk literatur oleh para teolog Kristen yang sangat memercayai Alkitab tapi di saat yang sama juga memercayai evolusi, dalam upaya mereka untuk menyelaraskan keduanya. Makalah ini mencoba untuk menelaah tulisan beberapa teolog sehubungan dengan hal tersebut dan memberikan sanggahan sehubungan dengan pandangan mereka yang mencoba menyelaraskan penciptaan alkitabiah selama enam hari dengan teori evolusi yang berlangsung jutaan tahun, namun dengan mengesampingkan otoritas Kitab Suci. Hasil yang diharapkan dalam makalah ini bahwa otoritas Alkitab dan keabsahannya dalam kisah penciptaan Allah selama enam hari literal adalah benar dan tidak dapat diselaraskan dengan teori evolusi. Makalah ini menggunakan metode studi literatur, di mana sumber utama adalah tulisan para teolog yang memercayai Allah dan secara bersamaan memercayai teori evolusi. Sumber sekunder diperlukan sebagai pembanding dan memberikan masukan sehubungan dengan penelitian ini.

Abstract

After God created plants, animals, and light objects, God created humans. The first man (Adam) was formed from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life to become a living man. After that, God formed a woman (Eve) from the rib of a human (Adam), both of them lived happily in their relationship with God in the garden of Eden, until finally they were tempted by the serpent and expelled from the garden of Eden. This study aims to find out what relationships exist in the Garden of Eden, from the creation of man to his fall. This paper argues that four types of relationships exist. First is the relationship between the Creator and humans, fellowship and worship by humans to God the Creator. Second, the relationship between humans and other created beings, where God's original purpose is for humans to control and manage other created beings. Third, the relationship between humans (Adam) and humans (Eve) symbolizes God's love for humans so that humans must love each other both horizontally and vertically. Fourth, the relationship between humans and snakes, where they were tempted by the serpent and were eventually expelled from the Garden of Eden, but there was a promise of redemption that God gave them. This paper uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach. The literature used is the main source regarding the fellowship between God the Creator and His human creation and the various relationships that existed in the Garden of Eden. Secondary sources are needed to compare and provide input in connection with this research.

Abstract

Controversies regarding Christology have occurred for centuries from the post-apostolic era to the present day, in which the main controversy lies in the nature of Christ, and not in the function of Christ. This article aims to find out the nature of Christ related to soteriology so that we can be sure that Jesus is the Savior that is fitting for human beings. This is a qualitative approached article using a descriptive historical and documentary research method. By considering a Bible reading on Hosea 13:4 explained that there is no Savior besides God, thus only a divinely perfect being could be a perfect offering to redeem human beings. Both divinity and humanity are needed for Christ to be an effective Savior because the Bible presents for Christ to be a substitutionary sacrifice, to unite with humanity, and for him to be humanities’ representative as the second Adam, to be their example and finally to be their mediator and priest.AbstrakKontroversi mengenai Kristologi telah terjadi selama berabad-abad dari era pasca-apostolik hingga saat ini, di mana isu utama adalah pada sifat Kristus, bukan pada fungsi Kristus. Kontroversi tentang kodrat Kristus selama inkarnasi-Nya selalu terkait dengan fungsi-Nya sebagai Juruselamat. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sifat Kristus yang berkaitan dengan soteriologi, sehingga dapat dipastikan bahwa Yesus adalah Juruselamat yang cocok untuk manusia. Artikel ini merupakan pendekatan kualitatif yang menggunakan metode deskriptif historis serta penelitian dokumenter. Dengan mempertimbangkan pembacaan pada Hosea 13:4 yang menjelaskan bahwa tidak ada Juruselamat selain Tuhan, maka hanya sosok ilahi yang sempurna yang bisa menjadi persembahan sempurna untuk menebus manusia. Baik keilahian dan kemanusiaan diperlukan bagi Kristus untuk menjadi Juruselamat yang efektif karena Alkitab menyajikan bagi Kristus sebagai korban pengganti, untuk bersatu dengan umat manusia, dan baginya untuk menjadi perwakilan umat manusia sebagai Adam kedua, untuk menjadi teladan mereka dan akhirnya menjadi mediator dan imam mereka.
