Abstract

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk meninjau tentang meditasi New Age Movement secara teologis, sehingga memberikan wawasan dan mendorong orang Kristen untuk memiliki sikap kritis terhadap meditasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian integratif (teologi integratif). Praktik meditasi bagi New Age Movement meniadakan wahyu dan penebusan Yesus Kristus, selain itu meniadakan fakta manusia berdosa. Orang Kristen yang memberlakukan meditasi dalam kekristenan perlu merekonstruksi pemahaman secara teologis.

Abstract

Abstract: This article explores the Torah through two perspectives, namely socio-political and theocratic-theological, using a literature study approach. Socio-politically, the Torah is understood as a historical document that reflects the social and political context of ancient Israel, while the theocratic-theological perspective sees it as a divine revelation that governs moral and spiritual life. The research methodology involves a literature analysis of academic sources related to the history, social structure, and theological values in the Torah. The results of the discussion show that these two approaches complement each other in providing a comprehensive understanding of the Torah, both as legal guidance and divine revelation. The article concludes that combining the two perspectives can enrich the theological discourse and relevance of the Torah in the modern context. Abstrak: Artikel ini mengeksplorasi Kitab Torah melalui dua perspektif, yaitu sosio-politis dan teokrasi-teologis, dengan pendekatan studi kepustakaan. Secara sosio-politis, Kitab Torah dipahami sebagai dokumen historis yang mencerminkan konteks sosial dan politik bangsa Israel kuno, sementara perspektif teokrasi-teologis melihatnya sebagai wahyu ilahi yang mengatur kehidupan moral dan spiritual serta merupakan bagian dari karya keselamatan Allah. Metodologi penelitian melibatkan analisis literatur dari sumber-sumber akademis terkait sejarah, struktur sosial, dan nilai-nilai teologis dalam Torah. Hasil pembahasan menunjukkan bahwa kedua pendekatan ini saling melengkapi dalam memberikan pemahaman yang komprehensif mengenai Torah, baik sebagai pedoman hukum maupun wahyu ilahi. Artikel ini menyimpulkan bahwa penggabungan kedua perspektif dapat memperkaya diskursus teologis dan relevansi Torah dalam konteks modern.

Abstract

This research explores the concept of theocracy in the Book of Hosea as a principle of pastoral loyalty in ecclesiastical ministry. Using content analysis, it examines the relationship between God and His people under His direct rule. The study identifies three key aspects of theocracy in Hosea: warning, message, and restoration. The warning highlights the consequences of sin and deviation from theocracy, the message emphasizes God's unwavering love despite betrayal, and restoration reflects God's hope to restore broken relationships through repentance. The research also addresses the relevance of theocratic principles in modern ministry. Ideally, pastors should act as extensions of God, modeling faithfulness and integrity. However, challenges such as a lack of commitment and faithfulness under ministerial pressures are evident. Based on Hosea's theocratic principles, the study recommends that pastors strengthen their loyalty to God, focusing on integrity, obedience, and devotion to their congregation. The research confirms that ministry grounded in theocracy positively impacts the congregation's faith and glorifies God.

Abstract

The saving work of Jesus Christ on the cross is a central pillar in Christianity, affirming that human salvation can only be obtained through faith in Him. So the purpose of writing this article is to criticise the progressive Christian understanding of salvation, this research uses a qualitative approach with content analysis, which is concerned with the progressive Christian understanding, the doctrine of salvation. When paying attention to the correct doctrine of salvation, it can be concluded that the progressive Christian understanding of salvation is inclusive, so researchers can say that this movement is not in accordance with biblical truth and even contradicts the truth of God's word. The conclusion of this article is that salvation in Christ is exclusive, this cannot be changed by humans, because exclusive salvation is a great gift for every believer..

Abstract

Abstract: The right of religion freedom is one of the rights that cannot be reduced or eliminated. Every human being has the same right to determine his freedom, this right includes the freedom to adopt and accept a religion and belief of his own choice. The goal of the Indonesian nation will not be achieved if freedom of religion has not been realized. Disruption to religiom freedom in Indonesia is inseparable from disruption to the integrity of the State and the ideology of Pancasila. The church has an important role in promoting and maintaining religious freedom in accordance with Pancasila values; provide insight and form a complete understanding of religious freedom. Ideally, as written in Article 29 Paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution states that every citizen has the freedom to embrace religion and worship according to their respective beliefs. This constitutional guarantee is a solid foundation for protecting individual rights to practice their religion without pressure or discrimination. Various articles have discussed the importance of Pancasila for the State, but none have discussed the role of the church in religious freedom based on Pancasila. Through this research, we hope to provide insight and contribution to the church so that it can play a role in relation to religious freedom based on Pancasila. This research is a qualitative research approach with content analysis methods, then makes valid conclusions from the text with the context used. Abstrak: Hak atas kebebasan beragama termasuk salah satu hak yang tidak dapat dikurangi atau dihilangkan. Setiap umat manusia memiliki hak yang sama untuk menentukan kebebasannya, hak ini mencakup kebebasan untuk menganut dan menerima suatu agama dan kepercayaan atas pilihannya sendiri. Tujuan bangsa Indonesia tidak akan mungkin tercapai, apabila kebebasan beragama belum terwujud. Gangguan terhadap kebebasan beragama di Indonesia tidak terpisahkan dengan gangguan terhadap keutuhan Negara dan ideologi Pancasila. Gereja memiliki peran penting dalam rangka mempromosikan dan menjaga kebebasan beragama sesuai dengan nilai-nilai Pancasila; memberikan wawasan dan membentuk pemahaman kebebasan beragama yang utuh. Idealnya sebagaimana yang tertulis dalam Pasal 29 Ayat 2 UUD 1945 menyatakan bahwa setiap warga negara memiliki kebebasan untuk memeluk agama dan beribadah sesuai dengan keyakinan masing-masing. Jaminan konstitusional ini merupakan dasar yang kuat untuk melindungi hak-hak individu dalam menjalankan agama mereka tanpa tekanan atau diskriminasi. Berbagai artikel tentang membahas mengenai pentingnya Pancasila bagi Negara namun belum ada yang membahas mengenai peran gereja terhadap kebebasan beragama berdasarkan Pancasila. Melalui penelitian ini, kiranya memberikan wawasan dan kontribusi terhadap gereja agar dapat berperan dalam kaitannya dengan kebebasan beragama berdasarkan Pancasila. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis isi, kemudian membuat kesimpulan yang valid dari teks dengan konteks yang digunakan.
