Abstract

This article talks about the truth of God as the foundation of the existence of Judaism. The article aims to reveal the Jewish understanding of the truth of God that underlies the existence and continuity of Christianity. The study uses a descriptive qualitative method through literary analysis. The primary data for the study are texts from the Old Testament related to the truth of God and their connections in various texts of the New Testament. The selected texts are then analyzed using Dilthey's hermeneutic circle and Gadamer's horizon fusion techniques. The results of the analysis show that the understanding of the truth of God in Judaism is centered on God's faithfulness to the covenant, but due to Israel's acute violation, the concept of truth shifted towards God's never-ending love and faithfulness. This understanding has a dimension of continuity in the New Testament and implications for the mission of the Church. This research helps readers gain an in-depth understanding that enriches evangelical theological research, helping to deepen understanding of God's character, nature, and plan in human salvation history. Through in-depth research, the church can also discover continuity between the Old and New Testaments to better understand how God's message and mission.

Abstract

This study investigates the transformation and adaptation processes of gondrang sipitu-pitu music within Simalungun society in response to social, cultural, and technological dynamics. Originally serving as a medium for ritual and spiritual communication in the context of Simalungun customs, gondrang sipitu-pitu has undergone significant changes in its musical structure, social function, and performance style due to the influence of religion, modernization, and external cultural forces. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, drawing upon Margaret Kartomi theory of transformation and adaptation, Jeff Todd Titon theory of musical style, and William F. Ogburn theory of socio-cultural change. The findings reveal that although modern instruments have begun to challenge the dominance of traditional ones, key musical elements such as rhythm, sarunei melodies, and ensemble structure remain preserved. The emerging musical style reflects the creative adaptation of traditional artists to contemporary performance contexts. However, this transformation is also accompanied by critical issues, including the erosion of sacred meaning, the influence of modern aesthetic pressures, and the commodification of local culture. The shift from sacred ritual to popular entertainment raises concerns regarding the authenticity and sustainability of cultural values. Thus, this transformation must be understood not merely as an adaptive process, but as a contested arena of meaning, identity, and cultural power within Simalungun society.
