Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis figur Santo Longinus melalui pendekatan multidisipliner yang mencakup dimensi historis, teologis, hagiografis, dan devosional. Meskipun narasi Injil hanya menyebut seorang prajurit dan centurion tanpa identitas personal dalam kisah sengsara, tradisi Gereja kemudian mengembangkan sosok “Longinus” sebagai saksi penyaliban yang mengalami pertobatan dan akhirnya dihormati sebagai santo. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa konstruksi figur Santo Longinus terbentuk melalui interaksi antara teks kanonik, tradisi apokrif, elaborasi hagiografis, serta penerimaan liturgis dan devosional dalam Gereja Timur dan Barat. Secara teologis, tindakan penusukan lambung Kristus dipahami sebagai momen pewahyuan misteri keselamatan, terutama melalui simbolisme darah-air yang sejak tradisi patristik dikaitkan dengan sakramen Baptisan dan Ekaristi serta gagasan Gereja yang lahir dari sisi Kristus. Dari perspektif historis–kultural, perkembangan legenda, ikonografi, dan devosi, termasuk venerasi relikui Holy Lance, memperlihatkan bagaimana memori kolektif Gereja membentuk identitas spiritual umat melalui figur Santo Longinus. Analisis kritis penelitian menegaskan bahwa signifikansi Santo Longinus tidak terletak pada kepastian historis, melainkan pada  daya  simbolisnya   sebagai  teladan  pertobatan, saksi iman dan representasi informasi rohani yang bersumber dari misteri salib. Dengan demikian, Santo Longinus dipahami bukan sekedar tokoh historis, melainkan konstruksi spiritual yang memadukan fakta biblis, tradisi, dan refleksi teologis serta berfungsi sebagai model pastoral yang menampilkan teladan pertobatan dan kesaksian iman Kristiani.

Abstract

Gender equality has become a major concern in Indonesia’s religious life, influenced by patriarchal social structures and diverse interpretations of women’s roles. This study explores the theological foundations of gender equality in six official religions: Islam, Protestantism, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, and examines the gap between doctrinal ideals and socio-religious practices. Using a qualitative approach through literature review and interreligious comparative analysis, data were drawn from sacred texts, institutional documents, and academic works, analyzed through theological hermeneutics and sociological perspectives. Findings show that all religions recognize theological principles of gender equality, yet implementation is limited by patriarchal norms and historical traditions. Egalitarian values are often constrained by gender-biased structures. Inclusive theological reinterpretation is essential to align religious teachings with modern contexts and strengthen women’s participation in public and religious spheres. Achieving gender equality requires critical interfaith reflection to promote social justice and uphold human dignity.

Abstract

The study explores the role of the Personal Evangelization School (PES) as a structured model of lay formation in fostering apostolate spirituality within the contemporary Church, particularly in the Indonesian context and the digital era. Rooted in the ecclesiology of the Second Vatican Council, the study responds to challenges such as secularization, limited lay formation, and the expansion of digital culture. Using a qualitative descriptive approach based on literature review and supported by observational data from PES activities in the Suffragan Diocese of Bogor, the study analyzes the theological foundations and pastoral practices of PES. The findings show that PES effectively cultivates lay apostolate spirituality by integrating personal encounter with Christ, communal participation, and missionary engagement. A key contribution of the study lies in demonstrating how digital platforms, such as Zoom, reshape the nature of ―personal encounter‖ through mediated, dialogical, and reflective interactions. While these digital encounters foster authentic forms of communion, They remain distinct from the embodied presence required in sacramental life. In conclusion, PES emerges as a strategic pastoral instrument that bridges theological reflection and pastoral praxis, forming missionary disciples capable of engaging both physical and digital spaces.

Abstract

The study examines the theological meaning of the symbols of water, wine, and blood in the Gospel of John and their interrelation within the perspective of Catholic theology. Grounded in John’s distinctive use of symbolism as a medium of revelation, the study treats these three symbols not as isolated narrative elements but as an integrated theological sequence. The study employs a qualitative method, utilizing a literature-based approach and biblical-theological exegesis of key texts. The findings indicate that water signifies the renewal of life originating from divine grace and is closely associated with Baptism; wine expresses joy and abundance within the new covenant, finding its resonance in the Eucharist; while blood marks the culmination of divine love manifested in Christ’s redemptive sacrifice. Together, these symbols form a progressive dynamic of revelation: from renewal, to communion, and ultimately to redemption. In the light of sacramental theology, these symbols not only reveal the identity of Jesus as the incarnate Word but also mediate a concrete experience of faith within the life of the Church. Thus, the Gospel of John demonstrates that God’s salvific work unfolds in an integral and continuous manner, remaining relevant for the contemporary practice of Christian faith.

Abstract

The study examines the symbolic meaning of the “Bread of Life” in John 6 through an exegetical-theological approach, using intertextual and narrative-semiotic perspectives. It uncovers the dynamics of Johannine Christological revelation, which moves from miracle as sign, through theological discourse, and culminates in the sacramental understanding of the Eucharist. The Gospel of John is read as a text that employs symbolism and patterns of misunderstanding to lead readers from a literal reading toward deeper faith in Jesus as the source of true life. In this framework, the “Bread of Life” functions not merely as metaphor but as a revelatory symbol integrating Christological, soteriological, and ecclesiological dimensions. Findings show that this symbol is rooted in Old Testament motifs such as manna, Exodus, and wisdom, reinterpreted Christologically in Jesus. The feeding miracle points beyond physical sustenance to divine revelation, culminating in the statement “I am the Bread of Life.” John 6:51b–58 intensifies this sacramental meaning, forming the basis for Eucharistic theology, where participation in Christ’s body and blood signifies existential communion with God. The study concludes that John integrates Christology and sacramental theology, portraying faith as movement from sign to reality, recognition to participation, and revelation to communion with Christ.

Abstract

The study examines John 15:1–8, highlighting its Christological, ecclesiological dimensions, and pastoral implications in a contemporary context, particularly in West Kalimantan. Employing an exegetical approach integrated with theological reflection, the metaphor of the “true vine” is understood as a declaration of Jesus’ identity as the source of authentic life and the relational foundation of the community of disciples. The concept of “abiding” is interpreted as an ongoing existential connectedness with Christ, expressed through practices of faith such as engagement with the Word, prayer, and love. Meanwhile, “bearing fruit” is not merely ethical output but an authentic manifestation of life grounded in this relational union. Furthermore, the study argues that Johannine ecclesiology is organic in nature, portraying the church as a living community deriving its existence from and in Christ, rather than a purely institutional structure. The pastoral implications of this metaphor are significant in addressing local challenges such as individualism, ecological crisis, religious plurality, and the spiritual formation of youth. Using a praxis–reflection–praxis framework, the text is integrated into theological education as a model linking faith reflection with concrete action. The findings affirm that Christ-centered spirituality fosters personal and communal transformation relevant to the contemporary church.

Abstract

The study critically examines the Gospel of John as a theological text integrating the incarnate Logos and sacramental symbolism. Using a qualitative, library-based approach with historical-critical and hermeneutical analysis, it shows that John’s Gospel not only narrates Jesus’ life but constructs a symbolic, existential, and transformative theological reflection. The Logos shifts from a metaphysical principle to a personal reality in history through the incarnation, enabling a concrete encounter between God and humanity. Within this framework, symbols such as water and bread function as media of revelation guiding individuals toward a living, relational faith experience. Furthermore, sacramental symbolism in the Gospel of John is ontologically grounded in the incarnation of the Logos. Faith is thus understood not merely as intellectual assent but as participation in divine life that transforms human existence. The integration of Christological and sacramental dimensions indicates that faith is holistic, encompassing spiritual, material, and relational aspects. Thus, the Gospel of John presents a theological vision of faith as a concrete and dynamic existential encounter, relevant for contemporary theological reflection.

Abstract

The expression “I am” (egō eimi) constitutes one of the most distinctive and theologically significant elements in the Gospel of John and plays a central role in the revelation of Jesus’ identity. Far from functioning merely as a linguistic marker of self-identification, this expression serves as a medium of self-revelation through which Jesus discloses His relationship with God and the salvific meaning of His mission for humanity. This study aims to examine the theological significance of the “I am” sayings in the Gospel of John by exploring their biblical context, their roots in Old Testament tradition, and their christological and soteriological implications. Employing a qualitative approach through library research, this study applies an exegetical–theological method to the Johannine text, supported by relevant biblical-theological and exegetical literature. The findings indicate that the “I am” sayings with predicates portray Jesus’ role in the work of salvation through symbolic and relational language, while the absolute (without predicate) “I am” sayings explicitly affirm Jesus’ divine identity by echoing the revelation of the divine name in the Old Testament tradition. Consequently, the Gospel of John presents a high-level Christology that situates Jesus as the center of divine revelation and the source of salvation. This study affirms that the “I am” sayings carry not only doctrinal significance but also existential implications, inviting a response of faith and a lived relationship with Christ in the contemporary life of believers.
