Abstract

The phrase “Fear of the Lord” that repeatedly appears in the Book of Proverbs, particularly in Proverbs 1:7 which reads, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,” carries deep theological significance in the Christian tradition. This phrase not only affirms the beginning of divine wisdom, but also describes the heart attitude that believers should have in knowing and worshipping God. However, in the context of modern Christianity, the relevance and application of this concept is often a matter of discussion, given the cultural shifts and spiritual challenges faced by Christians today. This study aims to analyze the meaning of the phrase “fear of the Lord” in the context of modern Christianity, as well as explore how views and practices related to this phrase are applied in contemporary Christian life. In addition, this study also highlights how the concept of “fear of the Lord” undergoes changes or adjustments in line with the dynamics and challenges of the evolving times. This study uses a method with a theological and hermeneutic analysis approach to the biblical text, particularly Proverbs 1:7, to explore the meaning of the phrase “fear of the Lord” in the context of modern Christianity. Through textual analysis, the study examined classical and modern interpretations of relevant biblical passages, in order to understand how the phrase is translated and applied in contemporary Christian life. Thus, the results of this study show that the “fear of the Lord” is defined as reverence, awe, and obedience to God, not just literal fear. This understanding is manifested in life attitudes that reflect integrity, ethics, and morality according to the teachings of Christ. Thus, it can be implemented in various forms of spiritual and social activities, including religious education, worship, and daily spiritual practices such as prayer and meditation. This research also shows that the concept of the “fear of the Lord”, when properly understood and consistently applied, has the potential to deepen the spiritual life of Christians. Moreover, a proper understanding of this concept can be a source of strength and guidance for Christians in facing the challenges of daily life.

Abstract

God is a living, independent person who is fully sovereign over all of His creation. Meanwhile, human beings and the rest of creation are completely dependent on Him. Without God's providence and control, all things would perish. Within the framework of His providence, God actively carries out His will to fulfill the divine purpose. This study is motivated by the importance of understanding how divine action and human responsibility work synergistically, especially in the narrative of the Book of Joshua. This study aims to examine the relationship between God's providence and human responsibility theologically and narratively, and examine its implications for the understanding of contemporary Christian faith. It uses a qualitative approach with theological and narrative analysis methods, which allow for an in-depth exploration of the text of the Book of Joshua in its historical and theological context. The results show that God's providence does not negate the role of humans, but rather invites people to be actively involved in His plan. God's promises in the Book of Joshua were fulfilled through the concrete actions of the obedient and believing people of Israel. Thus, the synergy between God's sovereignty and human responsibility is key in understanding how God's plan of salvation is carried out. This narrative affirms that true faith is always manifested in action, and that human participation is not only essential, but also desired by God in His covenant relationship.

Abstract

Character in the New Testament perspective is closely related to a person who has accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. Character is the main concern of Jesus Christ and the apostles because it reflects the growth of faith and the ability to implement His teachings in daily life. Character formation creates a person who fears God, lives in harmony with God's love, and follows the rules taught by Jesus. People who fear God tend to have a ritualistic attitude, love the truth, and are firm in moral principles. In contrast, people who do not fear God exhibit the opposite attitude. Christian character affects not only the number of believers, but also the quality of life in accordance with God's word. Christians are expected to exert a positive influence through their faith and good character, bear witness to Christ through their actions, and encourage others to follow Jesus' example. This study aims to explain the importance of Christian character in the New Testament as a foundation for believers to be role models, both for unbelievers and for the Christian community. In addition, Christian character has an important role in cultivating the traits of Christ in daily life. This research uses a qualitative research method with a Christian theological and ethical study approach, namely to understand the meaning and interpretation of experiences, beliefs, and practices.

Abstract

Kitab Ayub merupakan salah satu teks paling kompleks dalam Alkitab yang mempertanyakan fondasi teologis tradisional mengenai penderitaan, keadilan ilahi, dan nasib orang benar. Di tengah dominasi pemikiran retributif dalam konteks kebudayaan Ibrani kuno yang memandang penderitaan sebagai konsekuensi dari dosa narasi Ayub menghadirkan pergulatan eksistensial yang tajam: mengapa orang benar bisa menderita tanpa sebab yang jelas. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menganalisis secara teologis konsep penderitaan dan penghiburan melalui pendekatan studi naratif-kualitatif terhadap Kitab Ayub. Metode ini menelusuri struktur narasi, respons karakter, serta simbolisme yang terkandung dalam teks, sambil memperhatikan dimensi historis dan reflektif dalam pembacaan teologis. Temuan utama penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa penderitaan dalam Kitab Ayub tidak dapat dijelaskan secara simplistik melalui hukum tabur-tuai atau retribusi moral. Sebaliknya, penderitaan menjadi arena di mana iman diuji, dimurnikan, dan diperdalam melalui relasi yang jujur dan terbuka dengan Allah. Peran Allah, Iblis, serta ketiga sahabat Ayub menampilkan dinamika kompleks antara keheningan ilahi, penghakiman manusia, dan pemulihan anugerah. Kesimpulannya, Kitab Ayub menegaskan bahwa penderitaan bukanlah bentuk hukuman ilahi yang otomatis, melainkan dapat menjadi sarana pematangan iman dan pewahyuan karakter Allah yang melampaui logika manusia. Penelitian ini menawarkan kontribusi terhadap pemahaman teologi penderitaan yang lebih mendalam dan relevan dalam konteks pastoral dan spiritualitas kontemporer.

Abstract

Abstract: The news of salvation in the Bible is one of the doctrines that is very important to be understood and understood well and believed by every person who believes. In fact, almost all religions teach about salvation, in fact all religions have claims about all the ways and rules on how someone can be saved. In Christianity itself the teaching about salvation is a very important and essential teaching. The Bible teaches how people can be saved through Jesus Christ, the purpose of being saved, how to convey the news of salvation to all other people which is the duty and calling of believers or the church. Even the most important thing is how believers have a firm belief that when someone makes the decision to believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, they have the certainty of eternal salvation.

Abstract

The lack of access to learning in schools leads to a decline in children's interest in studying. This has become a problem experienced by the children of Dusun Bulaya, Ilan Batu Uru Village, West Walendrang District, Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi Province. As a result, many children drop out of school. The lack of guidance and counseling at home and in school causes a decrease in children's motivation to continue learning. This issue underlies the activities that will be carried out by the community service program; these activities are conducted to educate and shape children's character so that they become more independent and optimal during their early educational years. Early childhood education plays an important role in forming the foundation of children's character and academic abilities. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of tutoring and counseling programs in improving the quality of education and the character of children at TK KRISTEN SETIA Bulaya. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach, with the technique Observation, interviews, and documentation are used as data collection instruments. The research results indicate that tutoring programs can enhance students' basic academic understanding, while counseling services help develop positive attitudes, empathy, and discipline from an early age. Collaboration between teachers and parents is key to the success of this program. In conclusion, the integrated combination of tutoring and counseling significantly contributes to improving the quality of education and the character development of kindergarten children.

Abstract

This study explores the Christological dimension of Ecclesiastes 3:11 through a systematic hermeneutical approach to the concept of divine wisdom in the Old Testament context. The focus of the analysis is on the phrase “He put eternity in their hearts” as a starting point for the prefiguration of the concept of Logos in John's Gospel. By combining Hebrew textual studies, intertextual studies with New Testament Christological texts, and systematic theological synthesis, this study puts forward four main findings: (1) the term haolam in Ecclesiastes 3:11 exhibits a conceptual relationship with the Logos; (2) the anthropological structure in the phrase provides the basis for the reception of Christological revelation, formulated as the “principle of ontological correspondence”; (3) the tension between temporality and eternity in the text anticipates the paradox of the incarnation; and (4) a dialectical structure is found in the passage that parallels the pattern of classical Christology. Overall, this study contributes a new hermeneutical model to Ecclesiastes in the light of Christology, and introduces the framework of a “theology of temporal beauty” as an attempt to bridge between the beauty of time and the reality of the incarnation.     Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi dimensi kristologis dari  Pengkhotbah 3:11 melalui pendekatan hermeneutik sistematis terhadap konsep hikmat ilahi dalam konteks Perjanjian Lama. Fokus analisis tertuju pada frasa “Ia menaruh kekekalan di dalam hati mereka” sebagai titik awal prefigurasi terhadap konsep Logos dalam Injil  Yohanes. Dengan memadukan kajian tekstual Ibrani, studi intertekstual dengan teks-teks Kristologis Perjanjian Baru, dan sintesis teologis sistematis, penelitian ini mengemukakan empat temuan utama: (1) istilah haolam dalam  Pengkhotbah 3:11 memperlihatkan hubungan konseptual dengan Logos; (2) struktur antropologis dalam frasa tersebut memberikan dasar bagi penerimaan wahyu Kristologis, dirumuskan sebagai “prinsip korespondensi ontologis”; (3) ketegangan antara temporalitas dan kekekalan dalam teks ini mengantisipasi paradoks inkarnasi; dan (4) ditemukan struktur dialektis dalam ayat ini yang sejajar dengan pola kristologi klasik. Secara keseluruhan, penelitian ini menyumbangkan model hermeneutika baru terhadap  Pengkhotbah dalam terang Kristologi, serta memperkenalkan kerangka “teologi keindahan temporal” sebagai upaya menjembatani antara keindahan waktu dan realitas inkarnasi.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis ketegangan teologis antara kehendak bebas manusia dan kedaulatan ilahi melalui telaah sistematik terhadap narasi monarki dalam kitab 2 Raja-Raja. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif-kontekstual yang mengintegrasikan hermeneutika biblika dan teologi sistematik, penelitian ini mengkaji paradoks-paradoks teologis seperti perubahan keputusan Allah terhadap doa Hiskia dan ketidaksesuaian nubuat Hulda dengan kematian tragis Yosia. Melalui analisis naratif-sistematik dan sintesis dengan pemikiran teolog Reformed seperti Calvin dan Berkhof, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa paradoks-paradoks tersebut tidak menunjukkan keterbatasan atau inkonsistensi ilahi, melainkan mengungkapkan dimensi relasional Allah yang berkarya melalui struktur waktu dan sejarah tanpa kehilangan atribut kekal-Nya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sistem monarki dalam 2 Raja-Raja, meskipun ditandai kegagalan moral dan spiritual, tetap menjadi instrumen providensial di mana Allah menggenapi maksud kekal-Nya melalui konsep secondary causes dan relational mutability. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa ketegangan antara kehendak bebas dan kedaulatan ilahi dalam narasi monarki Israel bukan kontradiksi yang menggugurkan konsistensi teologi sistematik, tetapi justru menjadi ruang di mana kompleksitas providensia Allah termanifestasi secara autentik, menegaskan bahwa Allah berdaulat penuh atas sejarah sambil memungkinkan partisipasi manusia yang bermakna dalam rencana keselamatan-Nya.

Abstract

The interpretation of the phrase “a divine being coming up out of the earth” has long been a subject of debate among biblical scholars, particularly due to the use of the term ’ĕ·lō·hîm in the sense of “divine.” The diversity of interpretations has often obscured the original meaning of this phrase. This study aims to examine and provide a clear and comprehensive interpretation of the phrase. Employing a hermeneutical approach through literature study, this research identifies two key findings: first, from a historical-cultural perspective, the term ’ĕ·lō·hîm in this context does not refer to the LORD (YHWH), but can also denote other divine or supernatural beings, including deities or objects of worship; second, within the biblical framework, anything associated with the LORD is not depicted as emerging from the earth, but rather from above (heaven), symbolizing the divine realm.The novelty of this study lies in addressing the interpretive gap concerning the meaning of “the divine” in 1 Samuel 28:13. The findings are expected to contribute to the development of biblical studies, particularly in clarifying and evaluating various interpretations of this narrative.

Abstract

Holiness is the absolute standard for believers. A holy God requires His people to live in holiness. There are many studies that discuss holiness, but this paper finds that there is a deep meaning and special emphasis in Leviticus 19:2 that should be considered and explored further. Based on the descriptive method, literature study and exegetical analysis, this research finds two implications for believers regarding holiness, namely being born again as the basis for every believer to experience cleansing from the old life, and avoiding uncleanness as a commitment to live pleasing to God. This research encourages all believers to continue to live righteously and maintain holiness so that their lives become an example and have an impact.
