Abstract

This study discusses the theological analysis of giving belis in marriages for the people of Sumba. This culture or custom has been passed down from generation to generation and always intersects with church marriage. There are many different responses to belis in Sumba community marriages, especially from Christians. The research method used is a literature study. The object of study is the giving of dowries in the marriages of Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob and Rachel, David and Michal, and Shechem and Dina. Theological reflections obtained from this study: First, dowry in the Bible is given as a sign of respect for women and their families. Second, dowry is not coercion but rather the ability of a man to prove his love for a woman who wants to be his wife. Therefore, if it is applied to the belis culture in the Sumbanese people, belis does not conflict with the Christian faith, and belis has positive things that aim to help each other. The implications include: First, belis must be given according to the man's ability. Second, belis may not be held to fulfill the personal ambitions of the bride and groom or their family. Purchase payments must be made for the common good. Third, belis is given in an honorable way. There is no need to justify any means to prove the ability to pay belis at high prices.

Abstract

This study examines the concept of the Intermediate State theologically, particularly in relation to the doctrines of Purgatory and Soul Sleep. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether both doctrines have a strong basis in the Bible. The method used is a qualitative theological approach through literature study and analysis of biblical texts. This study includes the concepts of Sheol, Hades, and interpretations of relevant verses. The results of the study indicate that the doctrine of Purgatory does not have a strong biblical basis and is more developed from church tradition. Meanwhile, the doctrine of Soul Sleep is also inconsistent with the biblical testimony that describes the dead remain conscious in the Intermediate State. Therefore, it is concluded that after death, humans immediately enter a state of consciousness, either in communion with God or in separation from Him, without going through an additional process of sanctification or unconsciousness.

Abstract

Abstract This community service program aims to provide spiritual guidance and character development for the youth and young adults of the church GPR Pandeglang, Banten, through a theological approach based on 1 Corinthians 10:13. This verse emphasizes that temptation is a common human experience, that God is faithful and will not allow individuals to be tempted beyond their capacity, and that He provides a way out so they may endure it. In the context of this program, the verse serves as a reflective foundation for holistic self-understanding: recognizing human limitations, acknowledging God-given strength, and developing a resilient spiritual attitude amid life’s challenges. The methods used in this activity include material presentations, interactive discussions, and group reflections designed to explore the theological and practical understanding of self-identity among participants. The results show an increased awareness of personal value grounded in the Word of God, as well as the emergence of initiatives to build a supportive and faith-centered community. This program has made a positive contribution to the spiritual formation of youth and has equipped them with a contextual and applicable faith perspective for navigating real-life situations.  Abstrak Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pembinaan spiritual dan penguatan karakter kepada remaja dan pemuda gereja GPR Pandeglang, Banten melalui pendekatan teologis berbasis 1 Korintus 10:13.

Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini meliputi penyampaian materi, diskusi interaktif, dan refleksi kelompok yang dirancang untuk menggali pemahaman teologis dan aplikatif peserta terhadap diri mereka sendiri. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan kesadaran peserta akan nilai diri berdasarkan Firman Tuhan, serta munculnya inisiatif untuk membangun komunitas yang saling menopang dalam perjalanan iman.
