Abstract

The purpose of this article is to answer whether Tamar's actions, which deceived her father-in-law, Judah, in Genesis 38 are justified from the point of view of Christian ethics. Answering this question can help God's people understand what to consider when making ethical decisions. The method used is a qualitative method with a literature study approach. The author collects data from various literature and then compiles systematic arguments related to the topic. The conclusion is that we could not blame Tamar for her actions since she was only trying to fight for her fate which was oppressed by Judah's indifference. This story teaches us that after God's words, the situation faced by the individual is also important to consider in ethical decision-making. AbstrakTujuan penulisan artikel ini adalah untuk menjawab pertanyaan apakah tindakan Tamar, yang mengelabui mertuanya, Yehuda, dalam Kejadian 38 dapat dibenarkan dari sudut pandang etika Kristen.

Abstract

This research focuses on the exposition of Job's failure in educating his children, as reflected in Job 1:4-5, with an analysis of weaknesses in terms of communication and spiritual approach. This research aims to explore how education that focuses more on rituals and less directly involves children in the spiritual learning process can impact their moral and spiritual development. This study uses a qualitative method with an exposition approach to the biblical text and combines references from the latest literature on child education and Christian parenting. The research results show that Job's weakness in communicating with his children caused them to lack understanding of personal responsibility for their sins and spiritual life. Job relied more on sacrifices to atone for his children's sins rather than directing them directly to understand their sin and repent. This research concludes that good communication, integration of spiritual values into daily life, and teaching about personal responsibility are the keys to building children's spiritual character. Thus, this research provides a practical contribution to Christian education, especially in facing the modern challenges faced by today's generation.

Abstract

This paper specifically described the issue of initiating the study of Christianity based on missiology. This topic was reviewed because factually Christian education based on missiology was still not fully encouraged in religious learning in classes. This topic was discussed considering that there were still a lot of various tribes who had not been reached in missionary services. Obviously, this should not be the responsibility of missionary institutions alone, but religious institutions in the context of Christian education should also make a contribution and pay attention to it. In discussing this topic, the researchers used qualitative methods with a literature study approach. The description in discussing this article started with the Curriculum of Christian Religious Education leading to missiology. Then, the practice of mission-based learning was carried out for students in the classrooms. This was done to instill the concern of the Great Mandate from an early age. Besides, Christian Educators should live up to their missionary activities as their responsibility of their vocation as educators chosen by God to encourage the missionary movements. It was done to emulate the way how Jesus and the apostles taught but framed in missionary Tulisan ini secara spesifik menguraikan perihal menggagas pembalajaran agama Kristen berbass misiologi. Topik ini diulas karena secara faktual pembelajaran agama Kristen berbasis misiologi masih belum sepenuhnya digalakkan dalam pembelajaran agama di kelas. Topik ini dibahas mengingat masih banyak ditemukan berbagai suku belum terjangkau dalam pelayanan misi. Tentunya tanggung jawab itu tidak hanya dibebankan kepada lembaga misi, namun lembaga keagamaan dalam konteks pendidikan Kristen turut ikut andil memerhatikannya. Di dalam menguraikan topik ini peneliti menerapkan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi literatur. Uraian pembahasan pada artikel ini dimulai dari, kurikulum Pendidikan Agama Kristen itu sendiri mengarah pada misiologi. Kemudian praktik pembelajaran berbasis misiologi dilakukan di dalam kelas bagi naradidik. Ini dilakukan untuk menanamkan sejak usia dini, kepedulian pada mandat Amanat Agung. Disamping itu, Pendidik Agama Kristen menghidupi kegiatan bermisiologi, sebagai bentuk tanggung-jawab panggilannya sebagai pendidik yang dipilih oleh Tuhan untuk ikut menggalakkan gerakan bermisiologi. Hal itu dilakukan untuk meneladani jejak Yesus dan para rasul yang mengajar namun terbingkai dalam gerakan misiologi.

Abstract

Abstract: The focus of this article is the phenomenon of remarriage among church leaders, particularly male and female pastors who have lost their spouses. Although the experience has a significant impact on the personal lives and individual ministries of the pastors, this research is based on the lack of comprehensive studies regarding the socio-theological aspects of that experience. The main research question of this article is, how does the socio-theological context of marriage influence church leadership? This article is written using a qualitative methodology with a multiple-case study. The findings of this article reveal that the remarriage of church leaders often elicits a range of responses from the congregation, from acceptance to rejection. This also affects the social relations and leadership authority of the pastor in the church. Additionally, church leaders face spiritual and emotional pressure when deciding to remarry. Therefore, the church must create more empathetic and inclusive pastoral guidelines to support leaders in the remarriage process while they are in a state of mourning. Furthermore, the church should provide opportunities for theological discussions on this issue. Abstrak: Fokus artikel ini adalah fenomena pernikahan ulang di kalangan pemimpin gereja, khususnya pendeta pria dan wanita yang kehilangan pasangannya. Meskipun pengalaman tersebut memiliki dampak yang signifikan pada kehidupan pribadi dan pelayanan individu kepada para pendeta, penelitian ini didasarkan pada kurangnya studi komprehensif mengenai aspek sosio-teologis dari pengalaman tersebut. Rumusan pertanyaan utama artikel ini adalah, bagaimana konteks sosio-teologis perkawinan dalam kepemimpinan gereja? Artikel ini ditulis menggunakan metodologi kualitatif dengan studi kasus. Temuan artikel ini mengungkapkan bahwa perkawinan ulang pemimpin gereja sering menimbulkan respons yang beragam dari jemaat, mulai dari menerima hingga menolak. Ini juga memengaruhi relasi sosial dan otoritas kepemimpinan pendeta di gereja. Selain itu, pemimpin gereja menghadapi tekanan spiritual dan emosional saat memutuskan untuk menikah kembali. Oleh sebab itu, gereja harus membuat pedoman pastoral yang lebih empatik dan inklusif untuk mendukung para pemimpin dalam proses perkawinan ulang saat mereka dalam keadaan duka. Selain itu, gereja harus memberikan kesempatan untuk adanya diskusi teologis tentang masalah ini

Abstract

This article discusses how the New Age Movement (NAM) began, who the figures are, what are the points of the NAM teachings, and how is the Bible's perspective on this NAM. The New Age Movement is a religious movement that combines all religious beliefs and sects in the world. The emergence of NAM is suspected because formal religions cannot seem to provide an answer or a kind of inner peace when humans are faced with problems. Not to mention formal religions claiming each other whose religious teachings are superior and true. The method used in writing this article is descriptive and analytical methods. The ideology of the New Age Movement rejects the finality of the authority of the Scriptures, does not accept the claim of the Savior, penance as taught by formal religion including Christianity not trusted by NAM. The NAM doctrine lecturing that God is Pantheistic because it is based on the universe and humans there are supernatural divine elements. The New Age Movement must be watched by every Christian because what is taught by NAM is a contradiction to the principle of what the Bible teaches Abstrak Artikel ini membahas bagaimana awal munculnya Gerakan Zaman Baru (GZB), siapa saja tokoh-tokonya, apa yang menjadi butir-butir dari ajaran GZB serta bagaimana persfektif Alkitab mengenai GZB ini. Gerakan Zaman Baru adalah gerakan keagamaan yang menggabungkan semua kepercayaan agama dan sekte-skte di dunia ini. Kemunculan GZB ditenggarai karena agama-agama formal seakan tidak bisa langsung memberikan jawaban atau semacam perasaan ketenangan batin saat manusia diperhadapkan dengan masalah. Belum lagi agama formal saling mengklaim satu sama lain ajaran agama siapa yang lebih unggul dan benar. Metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan artikel ini adalah metode deskriptif dan analitis. Ideologi Gerakan Zaman Baru menolak finalitas otoritas Kitab Suci, tidak menerima pengklaiman juruselamat, penebusan dosa sebagaimana yang diajarkan oleh agama formal termasuk di dalamnya kekristenan tidak dipercayai oleh GZB. Doktrin GZB yang mengajarkan bahwa Allah itu bersifat Panteis karena didasarkan pada alam semesta dan manusia terdapat unsur-unsur ilahi yang supranatural. Gerakan Zaman Baru harus diwaspadai oleh setiap orang Kristen, karena apa yang diajarakn oleh GZB ini bertentangan dengan prinsip ajaran apa Allkitab.

Abstract

The development of toll road infrastructure in Indonesia represents one of the national government's strategic priorities to accelerate economic growth, improve connectivity, and enhance regional mobility. Nevertheless, the success of toll road investment projects cannot be measured solely from government policies or investor commitments, but also relies heavily on the involvement and active participation of the community as key stakeholders. Community participation plays a vital role in ensuring the transparency, accountability, legitimacy, and sustainability of toll road projects, particularly considering their significant social, economic, and environmental impacts. This study aims to examine the necessity of regulating community participation elements in the toll road investment process in Indonesia. The research employs a normative juridical method, combining a statutory and case approach, with a focus on legal provisions, policy frameworks, and practical experiences. The findings indicate that the current regulatory framework governing public participation remains fragmented, sectoral, and insufficient in guaranteeing inclusivity and fairness. Therefore, more precise, comprehensive, and enforceable regulations are urgently needed to strengthen public involvement mechanisms. These should include structured consultation forums, open and timely access to information, as well as adequate protection of rights and compensation for affected communities. By institutionalizing such participatory mechanisms, toll road investments can be developed within an inclusive legal framework that not only ensures justice for communities but also fosters investor confidence and project sustainability. Ultimately, embedding community participation in toll road investment regulations will contribute to the long-term success of infrastructure development and support Indonesia’s vision of equitable, sustainable, and participatory economic growth.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of leverage and profitability on carbon emissions disclosure among financial sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020-2022. A quantitative approach was employed using secondary data obtained through purposive sampling methods. Of the 105 companies, only 64 met the criteria. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS 30. The findings revealed that both leverage and profitability have a significant influence on carbon emissions disclosure. Companies with higher leverage and greater profitability tend to disclose more information related to carbon emissions. This behavior is likely driven by the perceived strategic benefits of environmental transparency, particularly in enhancing investor appeal and reinforcing competitive advantage. These results highlight the role of financial performance indicators in promoting environmental accountability in Indonesia’s financial sector.

Abstract

Feng shui was a part of the cultural heritage of ancient Chinese society mainly used to design buildings and spaces according to the birth date or the basic elements of the owner or the person who occupied a building to achieve harmony and balance with the environment aimed to bring peace and prosperity. Feng shui practices had become a matter of debate among Christians. The question was whether feng shui practices such as calculations in building construction, determining the direction a tomb should face, or finding a date to start a business did not conflict with God's Word. From a non-theological point of view,  feng shui was well accepted because it seemed reasonable. This article discussed feng shui from a theological perspective by referring to Colossians 2:8. In the research of this article, the researchers used a qualitative descriptive method with an exposition approach where data collection was obtained from literature studies and interviews. The results of the discussion on this topic showed that theologians concurred that feng shui did not correspond with God's Word, while the Bible interpreted feng shui as a false philosophy. The conclusion drawn was the rejection of feng shui practices by theologians and the Bible.
