Abstract

The theology of inclusivism is one of the three theological approaches in the study of religion. This approach was proposed by Alan Race in his discourse on the relationship between religions. Inclusivism holds a concept of salvation that combines or reconciles the concept of salvation from two other theological approaches, namely exclusivism and pluralism. Exclusivism takes a firm stance and asserts that salvation is only through Jesus as mentioned in the Scriptures. On the other hand, pluralism believes that all religions are valid, and none is superior to the other. Inclusivist theology brings both together by stating that salvation is only possible through Jesus Christ; thus, the requirement for belief is to believe in Jesus. However, other religions can also receive salvation because they have access to Jesus through general revelation. People who attain salvation without believing in Jesus but have access to him through general revelation are called anonymous Christians, namely, brothers at the very margins. This concept is highly demanded by many people, including Christians, as it is more reasonable and tolerant. How does this concept of inclusivity in salvation align with the biblical perspective? This research is a qualitative study that will examine the truth of the concept of inclusivism based on the exegesis of three verses, namely John 14:6, Acts 4:12, and 1 Timothy 2:15.

Abstract

The implementation of Christian Education must be based on correct theological principles, so as not to deviate from Bible truth, and glorify the Lord Jesus, the giver of the task of Christian Education itself. One of the main and important texts on this subject is Matthew 28:16-20 which is known as the Great Commission of the Lord Jesus for all believers, and the task of teaching part of it. Therefore, it is very important to understand the principles of Christian Education theology according to this text. Based on the exegesis study of Matthew 28:16-20, several Christian Education theological principles are put forward in it, namely: (1) Actors of Christian Education must have a loyal character, and be taught about the Bible first so they have teaching skills later; (2) The content or material taught in Christian Education is the teachings of the Lord Jesus; (3) Christian Education must be carried out by all believers, namely they have all the conditions in the first point; (4) Christian Education must function as a means of discipling every new believer (new disciple) to mature their faith; (5) Christian Education must be given to all believers of all ages; (6) Christian Education is the task from the Lord Jesus, the Owner of all power in heaven and on earth, therefore, it is a task that must be carried out; (7) Christian Education must aim to form every believer to become obedient to the teachings of the Lord Jesus; (8) Christian Education actors will be accompanied by the Lord Jesus; (9) Christian Education must be carried out on the basis of the authority of the Lord Jesus.

Abstract

Inclusivism is defined as a mindset that recognizes that Jesus' liberation mission is addressed to every human being without exception. As a result, each and every person has the right to salvation and release. This theology does not want to be viewed as cruel by exclusivism, but neither does it want to be regarded as rejecting Christ's uniqueness by pluralism, thus it chooses the middle ground, namely inclusivism. This study employs qualitative special literature on verses like as John 3:8, 1 Timothy 2:4, 1 John 4:7-8, and Acts 10:22, which are utilized by Inclusivism as the foundation for their Christological beliefs. The Inclusivist Trinitarian Christology undermines the idea of Christ as a Special Revelation because it obscures the privilege of Christ as Revelation (John 1:1) and the Bible as a Special Revelation by the Holy Spirit's inspiration by 'perpetuating the News of Christ' in order to remain available to everyone throughout all centuries.
