Abstract

Masyarakat Kristen jawa masih ada yang melakukan peringatan kematian baik 3 hari, 7 hari, 40 hari, 100 hari, 1 tahun, 2 tahun dan 1000 hari. Selamatan ini tidak bias lepas dari adat dan budaya orang jawa. Perlu dilihat bagaimana perspektif iman Kristen terhadap selamatan kematian tersebut. Penelitian ini deilakukan dengan studi pustaka maupun wawancara dengan orang Kristen pelaku selamatan. Pelaksanaan acara seamatan sebenarnya tidak menjadi masalah asalkan hanya sebagai peringatan dan penghiburan dari kedukaan. Hal ini akan salah jika dikaitkan dengan kepercayaan dan roh-roh orang yang meninggal.

Abstract

Christian Religious Education plays a strategic role in shaping the character and spirituality of students as an integral part of the national education system. However, in the context of education policy in Indonesia, Christian Religious Education is often marginalised due to the dominance of secular and cognitive approaches that neglect the dimensions of values and morality. This article aims to analyse the urgency of repositioning Christian Religious Education in national education policy through a qualitative approach based on literature review. The findings indicate that Christian Religious Education not only serves as a means of transferring religious knowledge but also plays a role in building students' personalities that are inclusive, compassionate, and socially responsible. The main challenges faced by Christian Religious Education include inconsistencies between regulations and implementation in the field, a shortage of Christian Religious Education teachers with civil servant status, a curriculum that is not contextual, limited resources, and negative perceptions towards Christian education. The repositioning of Christian Religious Education proposed in this study includes six strategic steps: strengthening inclusive policies, developing a contextual curriculum, improving the quality and quantity of teachers, providing supporting facilities, integrating Christian values into the Pancasila student profile, and strengthening collaboration between churches, schools, and the government. By systematically and sustainably repositioning Christian Religious Education, it can play a more significant role in realising holistic, meaningful, and values-based national education. This repositioning is important not only for the benefit of Christians but also to enrich Indonesia's educational heritage in shaping future generations who are moral, inclusive, and have high integrity.

Abstract

The manifestation of Jesus' politics is a politics rooted in justice, love, liberation, and solidarity with the oppressed values that serve as a reference for the Imanuel Taripa Congregation in practicing their own approach to politics. Talking about politics refers to governance, whether in society or within the church, and also involves discussions about politicians, strategies, and power. This study employs a qualitative methodology to gain a deep understanding of the issues at hand. The choice of this approach is based on its relevance to the nature of the research topic, which focuses on interpretation and existing social dimensions. To strengthen the analysis, the author uses two data collection techniques: field research through interviews and literature studies. The political process within the church at the Imanuel TaripaCongregation takes place silently, including the regulation of church leadership structures, eventually leading to dominance over church governance. The state represents a form of power, and the government is a manifestation of developed authority. Therefore, the Imanuel Taripa Congregation, which is also part of the village community, inevitably interacts with the government. Although many events show politics being used selfishly to gain power, this paper seeks to reveal how Jesus’ politics should function within the congregation so that no individual acts as if they hold greater authority.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat kesadaran dan peran murid dalam upaya penanganan perubahan iklim di SMA Kristen Menara Tirza. Perubahan iklim merupakan isu global yang berdampak luas terhadap kehidupan manusia dan lingkungan. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk menumbuhkan kesadaran dan keterlibatan generasi muda, termasuk murid sekolah menengah atas, dalam penanganannya. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah survei kuantitatif melalui penyebaran kuesioner kepada para murid. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara umum murid memiliki pemahaman yang baik tentang perubahan iklim, termasuk dampak-dampaknya dan tanggung jawab manusia terhadapnya. Kesadaran ini banyak dipengaruhi oleh pelajaran di sekolah dan informasi dari media sosial maupun internet. Namun, kesadaran ini belum sepenuhnya diwujudkan dalam tindakan nyata. Masih banyak murid yang belum secara aktif berperan dalam upaya penanganan, seperti berbagi informasi atau melakukan tindakan ramah lingkungan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Hal ini menunjukkan adanya kesenjangan antara kesadaran dan aksi nyata. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan pendekatan pembelajaran yang tidak hanya menekankan teori, tetapi juga mendorong murid untuk mengambil tindakan konkret. Upaya ini sejalan dengan tujuan SDG 13, yaitu penanganan perubahan iklim dan dampaknya melalui pendidikan dan keterlibatan generasi muda.

Abstract

This study seeks to describe how the teachings of Jesus Christ in Mark 10:13–16 are applied in the spiritual education of children by Sunday School teachers at the Central North Region (RPU) Baptist Church in Jakarta. This passage illustrates Jesus’ deep love and attention toward children, serving as an example for Christian educators to guide children's spiritual growth.The study uses a qualitative approach with data gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation. The informants consist of Sunday School teachers and church leaders actively serving in the RPU environment. The data was analyzed through reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions.The findings indicate that the teachings of Jesus have been implemented through unconditional acceptance of children, living as role models, and delivering biblical lessons using age-appropriate approaches. However, challenges remain, such as limited resources, lack of training, and weak communication between teachers and parents.This research recommends regular training, consistent spiritual support for teachers, and improved collaboration between the church, teachers, and parents to foster an environment that supportsholistic faith development in children.

Abstract

This article examines the implementation of the Apostle Paul’s teaching-oriented mission pattern in Romans 11:11–24 and its relevance to missionary ministry among children, particularly those who have not yet come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Through a theological approach, the study finds that Paul’s missionary strategy reveals the inexhaustible grace of God, wherein God provides salvation for all who are willing to believe and repent. Believers are commissioned by God to proclaim the salvation that has been accomplished by God Himself through and in Jesus Christ, and it is now the responsibility of believers to proclaim this salvation to those who have not yet believed.Due to the reality of human sin and total depravity, humanity is no longer capable of pursuing virtue; instead, human beings are wholly inclined toward sin, experience moral corruption, do not do good, and have become spiritually unprofitable. It is therefore evident that humanity is in need of the Gospel—that is, of God Himself as Savior—since only the power of God brings salvation to everyone who believes (Romans 1:16–17). Jesus Christ has become the reconciler and redeemer of humanity from sin, and everyone who believes in Him will receive eternal life in Christ Jesus.

Abstract

Social media and teenagers are inseparable. It is undeniable that the sophistication of features found on various devices has made all thoughts and activities at least in contact with devices. The spiritual life of Christian congregations, including teenagers, is often influenced by various external factors, including social media, therefore research is needed to determine the intensity of Christian social media interactions on the character development of students. This research is a quantitative descriptive research with primary data sources obtained from the results of questionnaires from the sample, namely all Christian students at SMPN 01 Cikampek, data obtained from questionnaire entries were analyzed by testing validity, reliability, and correlation between research variables. The results showed that a total of 22 (61%) samples often accessed Christian content. The correlation results show a result of 0.369 with a significance value of 0.027, this shows a weak and significant relationship that students who often access Christian content have good character development. If social media is used wisely and directed sufficiently to Christian content then character development will be good.

Abstract

This article discusses the importance of Jesus' teaching strategy in the Gospel of Matthew for the formation of house congregations. Strategy comes from the Greek word stratogos, which means a method, procedure, or trick applied to achieve a goal and to shape the character of its mature members. In improving the quality of Jesus' teaching, Jesus used strategy and it became very effective in the Gospel of Matthew. The problem in this study is how Jesus' teaching strategy for house congregations based on the Gospel of Matthew actualizes their faith in the midst of the majority. Through a qualitative approach with theological analysis and biblical studies of chapters such as Matthew 4:19-20, Matthew 9:35, Matthew 5:2, Matthew 14:29, and Matthew 28:19-20. This article emphasizes that in Jesus' teaching, He prepared His disciples through a personal approach. The Lord Jesus not only chose disciples but also took responsibility for teaching them to prepare them to become teachers for others in spreading the Gospel. Jesus trained His disciples by involving them in real and active actions such as Jesus telling Peter to walk on water.  The Lord Jesus performed signs and miracles before them with the sole purpose of training His disciples. The Lord Jesus also trained and taught them how to truly pray (Matthew 6:5-13). A house congregation is a group of people who gather and learn the truth of God's Word and participate in the proclamation of the Gospel. This means that the congregation is involved in spreading the good news about Jesus Christ, and the congregation perseveres in prayer and makes prayer a lifestyle. Therefore, Jesus' teaching in the Gospel of Matthew emphasizes the formation of a close community, experiential teaching, commissioning for ministry, and leading by example in daily life. Jesus not only taught in formal meetings but also built a close community with His disciples, who became models for the house congregation. Jesus chose, taught, trained, educated, and discipled His disciples by sending them out to serve directly. Jesus taught spiritual values through concrete actions, which confirms that the formation of a congregation is not only based on doctrine but also on living examples.

This article aims to analyze the ethical and moral implications of using technology in missiology and provide ethical and moral principles that can guide the use of technology in mission. The article uses a qualitative approach by conducting a literature review from several sources relevant to missiology and technology. Ethical and moral principles must be integrated into the use of technology for mission to avoid potential issues and produce positive results in mission efforts
