Abstract

John B. Cobb Jr., a well-known theologian, philosopher, and environmentalist in the United States, has developed his participatory ecological theology from process philosophy to process theology. Some scholars believe it belongs to a distorted form of anthropocentrism, while others suggest it belongs to biocentrism. This study seeks to explore how participatory ecological theology from the perspective of John B. Cobb, Jr. based on a participatory ecological approach to the discourse of environmental ethical methods, especially from a theological perspective. However, through Cobb’s attention to and exploration of environmental crises and interactions with other environmentalists, his ecological theology is shown to be a new form of participatory ecological theology that recognizes the intrinsic value of all existence and affirms the participatory ecological order of nature. He challenges the traditional Christian doctrine of “dominion”. He points to a more responsible concept for humanity, that is, to serve all parts of the natural world as responsible creations, just as serving God.

Abstract

Death is a very close thing in human life, even a certain thing. It is impossible to predict when this death will occur. Therefore, death is also part of a mysterious phenomenon that occurs repeatedly with the same subject, namely people. The saying that the closest friend is dead. Sooner or later, willingly, or not, every human being will experience death that no one can avoid. When it comes to reacting to death, some people are afraid, some are worried, and some sincerely accept it. This article uses descriptive – analysis using Zur Theologie des Todes – ‘On the Theology of Death,’ published in 1958. Karl Rahner developed his theological approach to death. Death, according to Rahner, is an event that affects the whole human being, not just the body, while the immortal soul remains fundamentally intact. According to the Buddhist concept, death is the end of suffering. Birth, dissatisfaction, pain, and dissatisfaction, are suffering in life. So, death is a possible way to reduce pain Death, which is seen as the end of one's life, should be seen as an act in itself. Rahner interprets fulfillment as belonging to death itself. Nonetheless, Rahner's theory, like Augustine's, continues to evolve, and his treatment of the "liberty of the sick," if wrong, offers an important addition to moral meditation on the issue of the end of life. Kematian adalah hal yang sangat dekat dalam kehidupan manusia, bahkan hal yang pasti. Mustahil untuk memprediksi kapan kematian ini akan terjadi. Oleh karena itu, kematian juga merupakan bagian dari fenomena misterius yang terjadi berulang kali dengan subjek yang sama, yaitu orang. Ungkapan yang mengatakan bahwa sahabat terdekat adalah kematian. Cepat atau lambat, rela atau tidak, setiap manusia akan mengalami kematian yang tidak dapat dihindari oleh siapa pun. Ketika datang untuk bereaksi terhadap kematian, beberapa orang takut, beberapa khawatir, dan beberapa dengan tulus menerimanya. Dalam Zur Theologie des Todes – On the Theology of Death, diterbitkan pada tahun 1958, Karl Rahner mengembangkan pendekatan teologisnya sendiri terhadap kematian. Kematian, menurut Rahner, adalah suatu peristiwa yang mempengaruhi seluruh manusia, bukan hanya tubuh, sementara jiwa yang tak berkematian secara fundamental tetap utuh. Menurut konsep agama Buddha, kematian adalah akhir dari penderitaan. Kelahiran, ketidakpuasan, rasa sakit, ketidakpuasan, adalah penderitaan dalam hidup. Jadi kematian adalah cara yang mungkin untuk mengurangi rasa sakit. Kematian yang dipandang sebagai akhir dari kehidupan seseorang, harus dilihat sebagai tindakan itu sendiri. Rahner menafsirkan pemenuhan sebagai milik kematian itu sendiri. Meskipun demikian, teori Rahner, seperti teori Agustinus, terus berkembang, dan perlakuannya terhadap "kebebasan orang sakit", jika salah, menawarkan tambahan penting bagi meditasi moral tentang masalah akhir hayat.

Abstract

This paper aims to construct the church's response in facing the reality of migration in Batak land with the church's starting point as a community (communal ecclesiology). Communal ecclesiology requires an understanding of the cultural context and local wisdom of the community where the church grows. The context of the Christian community and churches in Batak land is characterized as communal life and thickened to the local wisdom. It is concluded that Christianity and churches in Batak land could adopt communal ecclesiology in response to the current migration reality. This article overviews the life of the early church in Acts. 2:41-47 as communal ecclesiology shows the Church's nature in celebrating personal faith communally within the faith community in three ways, namely daily labor, fellowship labor, and God's labor.

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to discover the use of the progressive-genetic method in the task of Old Testament Theology. This method is understood as the exposition or explanation of God’s Revelation as presented by the Bible, more specifically in the sense that Devine Revelation is centered on some covenant made by God with Noah, Abraham, Moses, and through Christ which all shows the organic existence of the Bible and biblical anatomy. In conclusion, in carrying out the task of Old Testament Theology, genetically progressive methodology can be used as a model in addition to other methodologies, which reveal God’s ever-evolving Revelation as revealed in the Bible that God gave or revealed to certain people named specifically by God self.

Abstract

Women in Meto culture have a uniqueness that can only be understood if they understand the construction of Meto culture. In general, many people always associate women's issues with patriarchal culture whose assumptions are oppressive and unfair to women. Women are often seen as marginalized. This paper aims to build a new understanding of women's identity in Meto culture that is more positive in patriarchal culture. There are discussions of women's identity in the Meto culture and its approach through Christian education. This positive understanding is then formed in dialogue with the appropriate biblical texts. Furthermore, the process of seeding this understanding can be carried out in the Christian education space with the Contextual Teaching and Learning learning model. This research was carried out using a literature study that is relevant to the issue of women’s identity in the Meto culture and the results found as content in the Christian education space are that the identity of women in the Meto culture is unique, relational, collective, and cosmic.

Abstract

The theocracy that introduced Jesus in Luke was more about the principles of God's government based on love. The book of Luke says the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost. He came not to condemn the world but so that the world, through Him, could be saved. This study explores the theocratic principles underlying Jesus Christ's missionary ministry, focusing on His efforts to seek and rescue the lost, as illustrated in Luke 19:10. The research method used is hermeneutics with a historical analysis and text context analysis approaches. Through a historical approach, this study aims to explore the principles of theocracy in Christ's missionary service throughout time. Analysis of texts and historical context will help identify changes, consistency, and continuity in the understanding and implementation of theocratic principles. The results are expected to provide deep insight into how theocratic principles played a key role in Christ's missionary service, taking into account changes and adaptations throughout history. The practical implications of this research include guidance for mission practitioners and church leaders in developing ministry strategies that take into account the historical course of theocratic principles in Christ's mission.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between maintaining a good name and the prevalence of corruption behavior in Indonesia. By conducting an exegetical analysis of Proverbs 22:1, which emphasizes the value of a good name, the research explores its relevance to the issue of corruption in the Indonesian context. The research explores the socio-cultural significance of a good name in Indonesian society and its impact on individual and collective behavior. It examines the perception of integrity and the role of reputation in shaping ethical conduct among public officials, business leaders, and citizens. The study also reviews existing literature, case studies, and empirical evidence related to corruption in Indonesia. Drawing insights from Proverbs 22:1, which states that "A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold," the research highlights the moral and spiritual dimensions of reputation and their potential influence on mitigating corruption. The findings provide valuable insights into the relationship between a good name, ethical behavior, and the prevalence of corruption in Indonesia. The study emphasizes the importance of fostering a culture of integrity, accountability, and transparency to effectively combat corruption. It also offers recommendations and strategies for individuals, institutions, and policymakers to promote and uphold a good name in the Indonesian context, to reduce corruption and its detrimental effects on society. This study contributes to the existing literature on corruption and ethics by examining the significance of a good name in addressing corruption behavior in Indonesia. It serves as a foundation for further research, policy development, and initiatives aimed at promoting integrity and combating corruption in the country.

Abstract

This study aims to uncover the secret of the plan of salvation that lies in the genealogy of Jesus Christ recorded in Matthew 1:1–17, especially in the context of the presence of foreign and sinful women in Jesus' lineage. In this effort, the method of theological analysis was used to understand the theological significance and moral message contained in the inclusion of women such as Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Uriah's wife in the genealogy of Christ. This research delves into the historical and cultural context of Matthew's writing and analyzes how the inclusion of these women complements and illustrates the fulfillment of God's all-encompassing and gracious promise. The findings of this study will deepen understanding of the redemptive narrative woven into the genealogy of Jesus Christ, provide deep insight into the inclusiveness of God's plan of salvation, and offer an evocative testimony of His infinite love and mercy to all mankind.

Abstract

Analyzing the similarities between Dani women and Jewish women who are bound by patriarchal culture, the author will use an integrative approach to the second principle of Pancasila and Genesis 38:1–30 to prove that both care for women who are oppressed by patriarchal culture. By using Farnsworth's approach, the author proves that even though the context is different, both the second principle of Pancasila and Genesis 38:1–30 have common ground that supports each other in protecting women from patriarchal injustice. The most important contribution of this approach is providing strong support for the struggle to protect women who are vulnerable to patriarchal domination, both in the context of the Dani tribe and Jewish women as depicted in Genesis 38:1–30. By strengthening cooperation between the values of Pancasila and the principles expressed in the holy book, this approach provides a solid foundation for advocacy and real action to protect women's rights and end injustice caused by patriarchal culture. Menelaah kesamaan situasi antara perempuan suku Dani dengan perempuan Yahudi yang terikat oleh belenggu budaya patriarki, penulis akan menggunakan pendekatan integrasi antara sila kedua Pancasila dan Kejadian 38:1-30 untuk membuktikan bahwa keduanya mempunyai kepedulian terhadap pembelaan perempuan yang tertindas dan terbelenggu oleh budaya patriarki. Dengan pendekatan integratif Farnsworth terhadap sila kedua Pancasila dan Kejadian 38:1-30, penulis membuktikan bahwa meskipun mempunyai konteks masing-masing, namun baik sila kedua Pancasila maupun Kejadian 38:1-30 mempunyai titik temu yang saling berhubungan dan saling melengkapi dalam bentuk sebuah kesatuan fokus untuk memberikan perlindungan kepada perempuan yang mengalami ketidakadilan akibat belenggu budaya patriarki.

Abstract

Online romance scams have emerged as a pervasive and emotionally devastating form of fraud in the digital age. These scams exploit individuals emotionally, financially, and psychologically, leaving victims traumatized and financially crippled. Online romance scams involve perpetrators assuming false identities to establish fake romantic relationships with unsuspecting individuals, ultimately leading to financial exploitation. This research delves into the concept of pastoral care as a holistic approach to mitigating the risk of online romance scams and supporting victims. Online romance scams represent a modern challenge with profound emotional and financial consequences. Internet love scams are a sort of organized crime that takes place on the internet. It may be viewed as a crime involving a deliberate breach of the law using deceit in order to obtain monetary advantage from specific victims. Many examples of Internet love scams go undetected. Pastoral care, with its holistic approach, offers a promising avenue for prevention and support. By addressing emotional, psychological, spiritual, and financial aspects, pastoral care can empower individuals and communities to guard against these scams and provide much-needed solace and recovery for victims. Additionally, the impact of pastoral care contributes to the resilience of communities in the face of this evolving threat.
