Abstract

The global Christian mission faces the pervasive context of secularism, presenting challenges and opportunities that require robust theological engagement. Charles M. Taylor categorizes secularism into three definitions: (1) separation between the sacred and the secular realm, but religion is axiomatic; (2) declining religious adherence in the purportedly neutral public sphere; and (3) a plurality of options is available for humans to construct the meaning of life. How does biblical theology respond to these three forms of secularism according to Taylor’s proposed taxonomy? This article proposes a “cosmic sanctuary mission” as a biblical theology framework for addressing the challenges in each of Taylor’s definitions of secularity. Employing the thematic-intertextual exegesis, it analyzes the biblical motifs of Eden and New Jerusalem, which bookend the biblical metanarrative. The intertextual links between Eden, New Jerusalem, and the temple highlight God’s dwelling place among His people. This biblical theology of cosmic sanctuary implies a theology of mission: to expand God’s holy place, beginning from Eden (Gen. 2) and consummating in New Jerusalem, which encompasses the whole cosmos (Rev. 21-22). This cosmic temple theology provides a holistic biblical framework for Christian mission, offering responses to each of Taylor’s definitions of secularism.

Abstract

This article examines the phenomenon of the virtual church in the postmodern era marked by pluralism, relativism, and digitalization. It explores the extent to which virtual church practices are compatible with sixteenth-century Reformation ecclesiology. Drawing on the ecclesiological principles of Martin Luther and John Calvin, the study finds that both Reformers understood the church as a visible community constituted through the proclamation of the Word and the administration of the sacraments, which inherently presuppose physical fellowship. Even so, digital technology holds significant instrumental value for teaching, pastoral care, and congregational communication. Consequently, virtual church expressions may serve as supplementary means of ministry but cannot replace the physical church as the true ecclesial community. The study highlights the need for a discerning and theologically grounded integration of technology in contemporary church practice.

Abstract

There has been debate over the phrase “υἱοῦ τοũ θεοῦ” (Son of God) in Mark 1:1, which some textual critics believe is not original and was added later (known as the shorter reading). Conversely, other textual critics still argue that this phrase is original (known as the longer reading). This study will demonstrate that the presence of the phrase υἱοῦ τοũ θεοῦ in Mark 1:1 is justified. Considering external evidence, I find that although various witnesses support both the shorter and the longer readings and are evenly distributed across ancient manuscripts, examining the genealogical relationship provides strong evidence for the phrase’s existence. The omission of υἱοῦ τοũ θεοῦ in some majuscules should be understood as a homoioteleuton error made by scribes. Additionally, internal evidence also strongly supports the phrase’s presence, as seen in the frequent use of this phrase, which is closely related to the Messianic Secret and inclusio. This evidence leads to the firm conclusion that the phrase υἱοῦ τοũ θεοῦ truly appears in Mark 1:1. The inclusion of this phrase at the start of Mark’s Gospel conveys an extraordinary message that contrasts sharply with what first-century readers in Judaism, Hellenism, and the Roman Empire would have expected.

Abstract

Human beings are indeed made in God’s image as destined seekers of truth and in their multifaceted if fragile efforts to attain and communicate in both thought and action an element of correctness, certitude, consensus, coherence, commensurability, and fertile and liberating knowledge. Therefore, peace activists cannot be separated from the struggle to critically and introspectively apply the truth, with arguments ready to be tested.

Abstract

Mazmur Ratapan pasca-pembuangan merefleksikan pengalaman umat Israel yang kehilangan tanah dan pusat ibadahnya, sekaligus mengekspresikan duka mendalam atas krisis identitas kolektif akibat keterasingan dan penderitaan. Walaupun tidak memuat silsilah literal, Mazmur Ratapan berfungsi sebagai memori kovenantal yang secara implisit menegaskan pentingnya genealogi iman—hubungan spiritual dengan para leluhur perjanjian—sebagai landasan pembentukan dan pemeliharaan identitas komunitas dalam situasi diaspora. Artikel ini mengeksplorasi Mazmur Ratapan sebagai teks liturgis yang menguatkan umat yang mengalami pengusiran dan penganiayaan dengan mengaitkannya pada konteks kontemporer komunitas imigran korban perang dan pengungsi kemanusiaan di Asia. Secara khusus, artikel ini menyoroti Mazmur Ratapan—terutama Mazmur 74, 79, dan 137—agar dapat menjadi sumber pengharapan dan identitas genealogis bagi komunitas diaspora yang menghadapi trauma, dislokasi, dan pencarian makna di tanah asing. Dengan demikian, Mazmur Ratapan bukan hanya refleksi sejarah umat Israel, tetapi juga relevan sebagai sumber spiritual dan identitas bagi pengungsi dan imigran korban konflik di dunia modern.

Abstract

In its historical development, objections have been raised that the Heidelberg Catechism is not adapted to children, either in their intellectual capacity or religious experience. Therefore, the writer analyzes the theological and pedagogical aspects of the Heidelberg Catechism in Christian Education, along with modern pedagogy critiques. From the analysis, the writer concludes that the Heidelberg Catechism possesses strong significance for Christian Education. Its content not only fosters a love for doctrinal instruction but also shapes students’ critical and spiritual awareness to respond to God’s covenant through faith and repentance, and to grasp the true meaning of living as Christians. This conclusion brought us to see the further reflection on the pedagogical significance inherent in embracing the Heidelberg Catechism within educational contexts. In this article, the writer deals with two Heidelberg Catechism’ pedagogical significances, Christ-centered teaching, and consistent Reformed instruction.

Abstract

In this article, the writer is responding critically the saying of Benjamin Jowett who assume that the Bible is an ordinary book and should be read as an ordinary book. With historical theological argumentation and dialogue between the tension of sciences, the writer defended that the bible is truly the Word of God and that the Holy Spirit witness within it. Therefore, the Bible cannot be read as an ordinary book.?

Abstract

In this article, the writer deals with the origin of covenant of works doctrine which, according to the writer, was started at the Reformation era. The writer believes that this doctrine is originated by Bullinger and Calvin. However, in its development, there are dissenting views within Reformed Theologians on whether the covenant of works doctrine is taught in the scripture. Therefore, the writer then analyzes the arguments given by those who disagree with the doctrine of covenant of works. From the analysis, the writer concludes that their given arguments are not in line with the teaching of the scripture. This conclusion brought us to see the further doctrinal implication that entails when we receive the doctrine of covenant of works. In this article, the writer deals with two doctrinal implications, the transmission of sin and the sinlessness of Christ.
