Abstract

Abstract:Human life with God's other creations has a mutually beneficial relationship, but humans often cause crises that threaten the safety of other creations due to anthropocentric thinking. The author uses Paul Knitter's theory of soteriocentrism, which affirms the primacy of the cosmic aspect while emphasizing a multi-normative approach or correlational dialogue in interfaith cooperation based on soteriocentrism, namely efforts to take global responsibility for the welfare of humans and the environment. The responsibility to improve and prevent the crisis requires awareness and real action from every human being, including church members, including the Protestant Church in Western Indonesia (GPIB). This research uses a library research approach and interviews. The results showed that GPIB has genuinely lived the work of God's salvation bestowed to save all creation and believes in the importance of working with all parties to realize the wholeness of all creation. Thus, GPIB has implemented the principle of soteriocentrism, whose indicators are contained in the Confession and GPIB's work program, which is seriously oriented towards the salvation of creation. The basic formulation of the good Confession can strive to continue to be aligned with the practice of sustainable action that does not stop at implementing an activity or work program for environmental care alone. Instead, action is seriously directed at ensuring that awareness of the importance of seeking the salvation of all creation is strongly internalized in all members of the congregation and GPIB ministers.

Abstract

Abstract:Evangelising ethnic groups that have long lived within traditional belief systems requires a contextual approach that is aligned with the culture and values of the communities receiving the Gospel. However, the church often faces challenges in preserving the purity of Christian doctrine when new believers remain strongly connected to ancestral traditions. This phenomenon is also evident among Dayak Meratus Christians in Loksado Village. This study aims to provide a conceptual framework for churches in Loksado and other regions with strong ancestral traditions to develop contextual approaches that help believers avoid syncretism without ignoring valuable cultural heritage. Using a qualitative approach through literature-based research, this study identifies a risk of syncretistic tendencies during the process of embracing Christianity among communities previously shaped by traditional belief systems, which may weaken doctrinal purity and spiritual growth. Therefore, the church must place God and His Word above all human cultural expressions and take concrete measures through contextual biblical teaching, exemplary leadership, holistic pastoral care, and continuous discipleship
