Abstract

Contemporary theological discourse often contrasts the crucifixion of Jesus as either God's eternal plan (divine intentionality) or the result of a conspiracy between Satan and humanity (demonic causality). This study analyzes the consistency of Jesus' crucifixion as the fulfillment of God's plan of salvation rooted in the Protoevangelion (Gen 3:15) and proposes a new hermeneutical model to reconcile this dichotomy. The research employs a qualitative method with a systematic-biblical theology approach, conducted through a stage of canonical thematic analysis of key texts (from the Protoevangelion to the New Testament) and patristic sources, followed by a stage of critical hermeneutical synthesis engaging with contemporary theological thought. The study demonstrates that the crucifixion was neither Satan's plan nor merely a response to sin, but rather the consistent realization of God's eternal design. As an original contribution, this research introduces the 'Subversive Fulfillment' model, which asserts that the sovereignty of God's love actively co-opts and reverses evil plans to accomplish His salvific purpose. The findings demonstrate that this model not only resolves the theological dichotomy but also provides a foundation for a theology of the cross that affirms the sovereignty of God's love over history, suffering, and the powers of evil.AbstrakDiskursus teologi kontemporer kerap mempertentangkan penyaliban Yesus sebagai rencana kekal Allah (divine intentionality) versus hasil konspirasi Iblis dan manusia (demonic causality). Penelitian ini menganalisis konsistensi penyaliban Yesus sebagai penggenapan rencana keselamatan Allah yang berakar pada Protoevangelion (Kej 3:15) serta menawarkan model hermeneutik baru untuk merekonsiliasi dikotomi tersebut. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan teologi sistematis biblika, yang dilakukan melalui tahap analisis tematik kanonis atas teks-teks kunci (dari Protoevangelion hingga Perjanjian Baru) dan sumber patristik, serta tahap sintesis hermeneutik kritis dengan pemikiran teologis kontemporer. Studi ini membuktikan bahwa penyaliban bukanlah rencana Iblis atau sekadar respons terhadap dosa, melainkan realisasi konsisten dari rancangan kekal Allah. Sebagai kontribusi orisinal, penelitian ini memperkenalkan model 'Penggenapan Subversif' yang menegaskan bahwa kedaulatan kasih Allah justru mengooptasi dan membalikkan rencana jahat untuk menggenapi maksud penyelamatan-Nya. Temuan ini membuktikan bahwa model tersebut tidak hanya memecahkan dikotomi teologis, tetapi juga menjadi landasan bagi teologi salib yang meneguhkan kedaulatan kasih Allah atas sejarah, penderitaan, dan kuasa kejahatan.

Abstract

Child trauma recovery in Christian orphanages requires a holistic approach integrating psychology and theology. However, practical models that operationally blend these two perspectives remain limited. This qualitative study aims to develop a mentoring model based on the principle of "listening" through a psychotheological approach. Using a literature study method, this research synthesizes theories of humanistic and trauma psychology (particularly from Carl Rogers and Danel Siegel) with a hermeneutical analysis of Biblical texts. The study yields an integrative model comprising three practical steps: unconditional self-acceptance, strengthening self-esteem, and providing space for self-expression. These three steps operationalize the listening principle within a framework combining attentiveness, valuing, empathizing, and loving. This study provides a theoretical contribution to Christian counseling literature by offering a structured psychotheological model. Practically, this model can serve as an applicable guide for orphanage caregivers in creating a restorative environment for child trauma survivors. AbstrakPemulihan trauma anak di panti asuhan Kristen memerlukan pendekatan holistik yang mengintegrasikan ilmu psikologi dan teologi. Namun, model praktis yang secara operasional memadukan kedua perspektif tersebut masih terbatas. Penelitian kualitatif ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan sebuah model pendampingan berbasis prinsip "mendengarkan" melalui pendekatan psikoteologis. Dengan metode studi literatur, penelitian ini mensintesis teori-teori psikologi humanistik dan trauma (terutama dari Carl Rogers dan Danel Siegel) dengan hermeneutika teks Alkitab. Penelitian menghasilkan model integratif tiga langkah praktis, yaitu penerimaan diri tanpa syarat, penguatan harga diri, dan pemberian ruang ekspresi diri. Ketiga langkah ini mengoperasionalisasikan prinsip mendengarkan dalam sebuah kerangka kerja yang memadukan sikap memperhatikan, menghargai, berempati, dan mengasihi. Studi ini memberikan kontribusi teoretis bagi literatur konseling Kristen dengan menawarkan sebuah model psikoteologis yang terstruktur. Secara praktis, model ini dapat dijadikan panduan aplikatif bagi pembina panti asuhan dalam menciptakan lingkungan yang memulihkan bagi anak-anak korban trauma.

Abstract

The phenomenon of lavender marriage has generally been examined within social and cultural frameworks, while its evaluation from the perspective of Christian dogmatic theology of marriage remains limited. This study aims to analyze lavender marriage through the conceptual framework of Sacramentum–Simulacrum in order to assess the integrity of marital relationships from the perspective of Genesis 1–2, Hosea 1–3, and Ezekiel 16. The analysis is conducted using a qualitative method with a theological-exegetical approach to formulate normative criteria for Christian marriage. The findings indicate that marriage as Sacramentum constitutes a covenantal unity encompassing essential, teleological, ethical, and sacramental dimensions, whereas lavender marriage operates as a Simulacrum that preserves the external form of marriage without embodying its relational meaning, particularly in terms of covenantal fidelity and openness. This distinction highlights the tension between social legitimacy and relational integrity in contemporary marital practices. This study contributes by formulating a systematic model of theological evaluation through the Sacramentum–Simulacrum dichotomy, while also providing a foundation for theological reflection and pastoral response within the church toward non-conventional forms of marriage. AbstrakFenomena Lavender marriage umumnya dikaji dalam kerangka sosial dan budaya, sementara evaluasi dalam perspektif teologi dogmatis perkawinan Kristen masih terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis Lavender marriage melalui kerangka konseptual Sacramentum–Simulacrum untuk menilai integritas relasi perkawinan dalam perspektif Kejadian 1–2, Hosea 1–3, dan Yehezkiel 16. Analisis dilakukan melalui metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan teologis-eksegetis untuk merumuskan kriteria normatif perkawinan Kristen. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa perkawinan sebagai Sacramentum merupakan kesatuan perjanjian yang mencakup dimensi hakiki, teleologis, etis, dan sakramental, sedangkan Lavender marriage beroperasi sebagai Simulacrum yang mempertahankan bentuk perkawinan tanpa menghadirkan makna relasionalnya, khususnya dalam kesetiaan perjanjian dan keterbukaan. Distingsi ini menegaskan ketegangan antara legitimasi sosial dan integritas relasi dalam praktik perkawinan kontemporer. Penelitian ini berkontribusi dengan merumuskan model evaluasi teologis yang sistematis melalui dikotomi Sacramentum–Simulacrum, sekaligus menyediakan dasar bagi refleksi teologis dan respons pastoral gereja terhadap fenomena perkawinan non-konvensional.

Abstract: In contemporary Christian theology, the divine identity of YHWH is often reduced to God the Father, resulting in a fragmented understanding of the relationship between Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the God of Israel. This article investigates YHWH as the single divine identity that grounds the unity of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit within the canonical witness of Scripture. Employing a biblical-theological approach, the study conducts a layered textual analysis of key Old and New Testament passages, including Exodus 3:14–15, Deuteronomy 6:4, Joel 2:28–32, Romans 10:9–13, Philippians 2:9–11, 1 Corinthians 8:6, John 1:1–3, and Hebrews 1:10–12. The findings demonstrate that the oneness of YHWH in the Old Testament functions as a covenantal identity claim rooted in creation and redemptive action. The New Testament consistently applies texts, attributes, and prerogatives of YHWH to Jesus Christ without abandoning Jewish monotheism. The term “single” in the title, therefore, denotes the indivisible unity of divine identity rather than a denial of personal distinction. This study argues that the doctrine of the Trinity represents a canonical articulation of YHWH’s unified and relational identity, firmly grounded in biblical monotheism. Abstrak: Dalam praktik iman Kristen kontemporer, identitas ilahi YHWH sering direduksi hanya kepada Allah Bapa, sehingga relasi Yesus Kristus dan Roh Kudus dengan YHWH Perjanjian Lama tidak terbaca secara utuh. Artikel ini mengkaji YHWH sebagai identitas ilahi tunggal yang menjadi dasar kesatuan Bapa, Putera, dan Roh Kudus dalam kesaksian kanonik. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan teologi biblika dengan analisis berlapis terhadap teks-teks kunci Perjanjian Lama dan Perjanjian Baru, khususnya Keluaran 3:14–15, Ulangan 6:4, Yoel 2:28–32, Roma 10:9–13, Filipi 2:9–11, 1 Korintus 8:6, Yohanes 1:1–3, dan Ibrani 1:10–12. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keesaan YHWH dalam Perjanjian Lama merupakan klaim identitas perjanjian yang konsisten, dan Perjanjian Baru secara sistematis menerapkan teks, atribut, dan prerogatif YHWH kepada Yesus tanpa membatalkan monoteisme Israel. Istilah “tunggal” dalam judul karena itu menunjuk pada kesatuan identitas ilahi yang tidak terbagi, bukan pada penolakan terhadap pembedaan personal. Artikel ini menegaskan bahwa doktrin Tritunggal merupakan artikulasi kanonik atas identitas YHWH yang esa dan relasional dalam kesinambungan monoteisme alkitabiah.

Abstract

This study aims to affirm digital preaching as a theological mandate of the church in the digital era, rooted in the Great Commission and the Missio Dei. The research is motivated by a gap in previous studies that primarily focused on the technical and communicative aspects of digital ministry, without adequately framing them within the church’s theological responsibility. Employing a descriptive qualitative method through a literature-based approach in practical theology and digital media, this study finds that digital preaching plays a strategic role in strengthening the faith of believers, preserving doctrinal purity, and expanding the church’s mission in a contextual manner within online spaces. The findings reveal that social media is not merely a technological adaptation tool, but a new missional arena where the church can embody God’s truth and love in relevant ways for the digital generation. Practically, the study recommends that churches develop sustainable digital ministry strategies that balance theological depth with communicative effectiveness. Hence, digital preaching is understood not only as a medium of spiritual communication but also as a missional and contextual practice of practical theology for the church today and in the future.

Abstract

Jesus' death on the cross presents a paradox between God's eternal nature and the reality of a dying God, sparking intense debate in pluralistic societies. This study analyzes the relationship between Jesus' divinity and death from a soteriological perspective using systematic theology and historical-biblical analysis. The research demonstrates that the doctrines of communicatio idiomatum and Chalcedonian Christology resolve this paradox by maintaining the integrity of both natures in one Divine Person of Jesus. The findings reveal that Jesus' death in human nature constitutes the ultimate expression of God's saving love. Precisely because Jesus is God, His sacrifice is able to redeem all humanity, while His humanity enables this redemptive event to occur. These findings not only strengthen the theological foundation of redemption doctrine but also provide a relevant resolutive framework for contemporary dialectics about Christ's identity. The theological implications require the church to embody cruciform spirituality through practices of kenosis and solidarity with the suffering.

Abstract

Jesus, who deliberately crossed the region of Samaria—an area avoided by the Jews—to meet a Samaritan woman near Jacob’s well in the town of Sychar, raised many questions about the purpose and theological significance of His action. This study investigated the Christological meaning of Jesus’ self-revelation as the Messiah and Savior of the world in the dialogue with the Samaritan woman in John 4:1–42. Using a qualitative method through literature study and textual exegesis, the research found that Jesus’ intentional passage through Samaria, an area traditionally avoided by Jews, carried divine intent as part of God's universal plan of salvation. This act by Jesus reflected the early stage of salvation for non-Jewish nations and served as an example for the disciples prior to receiving His message in Acts 1:8. This study affirmed the importance of an inclusive and missiological Christology in responding to a socially fragmented reality marked by ethnic, gender, and religious divisions.AbstrakYesus yang sengaja melintasi wilayah Samaria yang dihindari orang Yahudi, untuk menjumpai perempuan Samaria dekat sumur Yakub, di kota Sikhar, menimbulkan banyak pertanyaan tentang tujuan dan makna teologis tindakan Yesus. Penelitian ini menyelidiki makna Kristologis dari pewahyuan diri Yesus sebagai Mesias dan Juru Selamat dunia dalam peristiwa dialog dengan perempuan Samaria di Yohanes 4:1-42. Pemakaian metode kualitatif melalui tahapan studi literatur dan eksegesis teks, menemukan bahwa tindakan Yesus yang sengaja melintasi wilayah Samaria, wilayah yang secara tradisional dihindari oleh orang Yahudi, mengandung intensi ilahi sebagai bagian dari agenda keselamatan Allah yang bersifat universal. Tindakan Yesus ini merupakan cerminan awal dari misi keselamatan bagi bangsa-bangsa non Yahudi dan sekaligus menjadi teladan bagi para murid sebelum menerima pesan Yesus dalam Kisah Para Rasul 1:8. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya Kristologi yang inklusif dan misiologi dalam menghadapi realitas sosial yang terfragmentasi secara etnis, gender, dan agama.

Abstract

The study arises from the contextual reality of churches facing tensions between their missional calling, limited resources, and the demand for sustainable diaconal ministry. However, diaconal studies in Indonesia still lack an integrative theological framework that connects normative reflection with contextual strategic planning. This research employs a qualitative conceptual approach within the framework of practical theology, using critical analysis of literature on diaconal theology, missio Dei, and strategic church planning. The findings indicate that determining the focus of diaconal ministry should not be understood merely as a managerial consideration, but as a theological decision in interpreting God’s calling amid concrete limitations. Through a contextual analysis of Callahan’s principle of focused ministry, this study argues that strategic planning gains theological significance when situated within the framework of the missio Dei. Accordingly, strategic diaconal theology is proposed as a practical theological framework that guides churches in shaping diaconal ministry that is contextual, focused, and sustainable.

Abstract

The current problem in biblical studies is a methodological crisis caused by modern hermeneutics that tends to eliminate the author's role, leading to interpretive relativism, while classical intentionalism remains overly focused on authorial psychology. However, no reconstructive model has yet integratively bridged these two poles within an applicable methodological framework. This study aims to offer a reconstruction of author intended meaning through a communicative approach based on Speech Act Theory. The method used is qualitative library research analyzing classical and modern hermeneutical literature. The findings show that critiques of classical intentionalism successfully correct author-centered models, but the complete elimination of the author's role risks relativism. The novelty lies in formulating three theoretical propositions that go beyond Hirsch's psychological model while avoiding Barthesian relativism: meaning as illocutionary act, the dialogical relationship between author, text, and reader, and methodological criteria for distinguishing meaning from significance. This model provides a middle path between textual objectivity and the dynamics of the modern reader, as seen in the exegesis of Amos 5:21-24 and Philemon 17-22. The study acknowledges limitations regarding apocalyptic texts, poetic genres, and its theoretical nature requiring further empirical testing.AbstrakPermasalahan studi Biblika kini adalah krisis metodologis akibat pergeseran Hermeneutika modern yang cenderung menghapus peran author sehingga berpotensi melahirkan relativisme interpretasi, sementara pendekatan intentionalisme klasik dianggap terlalu berpusat pada psikologi pengarang. Namun, belum ada model rekonstruktif yang secara integratif menjembatani kedua kutub tersebut dalam kerangka metodologi studi Biblika yang aplikatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menawarkan rekonstruksi Author Intended Meaning melalui pendekatan komunikatif berbasis Speech Act Theory. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif kepustakaan dengan menganalisis literatur Hermeneutika klasik dan modern. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa kritik terhadap intentionalisme klasik berhasil mengoreksi model yang terlalu berpusat pada author, tetapi penghapusan total peran author berisiko relativisme. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada formulasi tiga proposisi teoretis yang melampaui model psikologis Hirsch sekaligus menghindari relativisme ala Barthes, yaitu makna sebagai illocutionary act, relasi dialogis antara author, teks, dan pembaca, serta kriteria metodologis pembeda meaning dan significance. Implikasinya, model ini memberikan jalan tengah antara objektivitas teks dan dinamika pembaca modern, sebagaimana terlihat dalam eksegesis Amos 5:21-24 dan Filemon 17-22. Penelitian ini mengakui keterbatasan pada teks apokaliptik, genre puisi, serta sifat teoretisnya yang perlu diuji lebih lanjut.
