Abstract

The Holy Communion is one of two sacraments recognized by the Evangelical Christian Church in Timor.  In order for congregations to take part in the Holy Communion feast, GMIT sets conditions or criteria, one of which is that congregations whose status is temporarily subject to church discipline cannot participate in Holy Communion.  This provision is not excessive because GMIT is a Calvinist church which in principle enforces discipline.  This article is intended to take a closer look at how church discipline is implemented before the Holy Communion is held.  To be able to complete this manuscript, the author used a library study approach in which the topic discussed by the author was discussed.  In the end, through this article, readers, especially the GMIT congregation, can be educated in understanding what Holy Communion is, the importance of church discipline as a moment to evaluate oneself before participating in Holy Communion.

Abstract

To support all its service activities, the Evangelical Christian Church in Timor has established five ministries to become instruments for GMIT to determine programs that can touch the congregation's struggles. This is important because GMIT is struggling with many humanitarian issues such as poverty, human trafficking, problematic climate and nature and many other problems. In carrying out this task, the church must be fair and act correctly so that the entire series of services is not biased. This task is framed upon Micah 6:8. Therefore, it can be said that this article is the result of an elaboration between text interpretation and a social theological approach which shows the practical side of the biblical text used as a reference. The conclusion of this article is that it can serve as material for reflection for GMIT in carrying out all its service activities while remaining faithful to the Bible, and full of justice, faithfulness and humility.
