Abstract

Leviticus is difficult for Christians to interpret today. The book is often considered irrelevant to the life of the church today. This causes some Christians do not study Leviticus carefully. Chapter 19 is the main idea of the book of Leviticus. A careful examination at Leviticus 19:1-8 points to the fact that the passage contains an intertextual connection with Exodus 20:1-11. This article records an intertextual analysis of Leviticus 19:1-8 with Exodus 20:1-11. The form of the intertextual relationship between the two texts is allusion. Therefore, the writer uses the allusive interpretation technique to find the meaning of the intertextual relationship between the two texts. The regulations in Leviticus 19: 1-8 are to be understood in light of God's covenant with Israel. The rules that God revealed to Israel in Leviticus 19: 1-8 are God's way of maintaining His relationship with Israel. Christians can study this passage to find principles for keeping a holy life before God.

Abstract

The suffering theology is not an interesting topic of discussion in the Christian ministry. However, Christians must realize that suffering in the ministry is an unavoidable event. Jesus became the typology of suffering for Christians. Although the theology of suffering is often voiced in various spaces such as sermons, mission oration or in seminary classes, the facts show that Christians will avoid suffering caused by challenges in Christian ministry. This paper describes Paul's perspective on the suffering he experienced in the ministry he did. Through the method of biblical analysis it has been found that suffering is the price to be paid for the gospel being proclaimed.

Abstract

This article discusses the reconstruction of theologia religionum from an Asian postcolonial perspective as a foundation for developing a contextual Evangelical dialogue in Indonesia. The study departs from a critique of Western paradigms, exclusivism, inclusivism, and pluralism, which are considered insufficient to fully explain the reality of Asian religious plurality. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach based on library research, this study analyzes the thoughts of several Asian theologians, particularly Aloysius Pieris, C. S. Song, and R. S. Sugirtharajah. The findings reveal that Asian theology of religions is constructed not primarily through philosophical speculation, but through the historical experiences of plural societies, poverty, colonialism, and local cultural struggles. This study proposes a model of “Asian postcolonial Evangelical dialogue” grounded in three main principles: Christocentricity, contextuality, and dialogicality. This model maintains the particularity of Christ without falling into hegemonic exclusivism or syncretistic pluralism. Therefore, this research offers a new conceptual framework for the development of interreligious dialogue in Indonesia that is more contextual, non-hegemonic, and transformative.

Abstract

This article discusses digital discipleship as a praxis of Christian practical theology in shaping congregational spirituality in the post-pandemic era. The transformation of church ministry during the COVID-19 pandemic shows that digital space no longer functions merely as a temporary tool, but has become part of the ecology of ecclesial ministry. The main issue examined is how the church can develop digital discipleship that remains biblical, relational, transformative, and pastorally responsible. This article uses a practical theology review method with a literature study approach. The analysis is structured through a dialogue between the reality of digital ministry, practical theology theory, and recent research findings on discipleship among the digital generation. The findings show that digital discipleship is effective when the church does not understand it as a substitute for the fellowship of the body of Christ, but as an extension of the space for faith formation. Digital discipleship needs to integrate doctrinal teaching, spiritual accompaniment, small communities, spiritual practices, digital literacy, and pastoral accountability. This article offers an integrative digital discipleship model that connects online and offline spaces to shape congregational spirituality that is mature, missional, and resilient.

Abstract

Flexing culture on social media has become a visible phenomenon in contemporary digital society. This behavior refers to the display of wealth, luxury goods, lifestyle, achievements, or symbolic status to gain attention and social recognition. This article analyzes flexing culture through the perspective of behavioral theory, especially operant conditioning, social reinforcement, and reward learning. Using a conceptual literature-based approach, this article argues that flexing can be understood as a learned and repeated behavior because the digital environment provides immediate social feedback. Likes, comments, shares, followers, and visibility may function as social rewards that reinforce repeated self-presentation. Recent studies show that social media engagement follows reward-learning mechanisms, while online social feedback, influencer exposure, fear of missing out, materialism, and social comparison are related to conspicuous consumption. However, behavioral theory also has limitations because it tends to focus on observable behavior and does not fully explain symbolic meaning, class inequality, platform algorithms, and digital consumer culture. Therefore, flexing culture should be understood as both reinforced behavior and a socio-cultural practice shaped by social media logic, status competition, and conspicuous consumption.

Abstract

The development of digital technology and social acceleration in the modern era has significantly transformed human lifestyles, ways of thinking, and character formation. However, behind this progress emerge various moral and spiritual crises such as instant culture, digital narcissism, post-truth relativism, identity fragmentation, and existential exhaustion. This study aims to examine the character of Christ as a theological-ethical paradigm in responding to the crisis of character in the era of digital disruption. The research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach through theological analysis of biblical texts, theological literature, and empirical data related to contemporary digital social phenomena. The findings reveal that the character of Christ, centered on kenosis, integrity of truth, love, and relational spirituality, provides a relevant ethical foundation for modern humanity experiencing identity disorientation and character degradation. Christ is not merely a moral example, but the model of true humanity who restores the meaning of the imago Dei within human beings. This study affirms that the formation of Christlike character is an urgent necessity for the church and modern society so that individuals may live authentically, maintain integrity in digital spaces, and grow in spiritual maturity amid disruptive cultural changes.

Abstract

Many contemporary churches experience a significant gap between quantitative growth and the depth of ecclesiological quality, owing largely to pastoral ministry models that have become predominantly administrative-institutional in character and increasingly detached from their biblical roots. This study aims to examine the life patterns of the apostolic community as depicted in the book of Acts and to formulate an ecclesiological-pastoral framework applicable to the contemporary church. The approach employed is biblical hermeneutics through narrative-theological analysis of key texts in Acts 2:42–47, 4:32–35, and 6:1–7, supplemented by a systematic review of theological literature in systematic theology and practical ecclesiology. The analysis identifies four integrative dimensions of the apostolic community: (1) perseverance in apostolic didachē as the doctrinal foundation of communal life; (2) koinōnia that transcends formal fellowship toward genuine socio-economic solidarity; (3) communal worship centered on the breaking of bread and prayer as the formative ground of shared spirituality; and (4) organic martyria as the natural outgrowth of the community's integrity of life. Together, these four dimensions constitute a missional ecclesiology that inseparably unifies internal spiritual growth with external communal impact. This study contributes to the discourse of practical ecclesiology by proposing the apostolic community model not merely as a historical reference, but as an operational theological paradigm for the reconstruction of contextual pastoral ministry in contemporary Indonesian churches.

Abstract

This article examines the relationship between the concept of Logos in the Prologue of the Gospel of John (1:1–18) and the concept of Logos in the Greek philosophical tradition, particularly in the thought of Heraclitus and Stoic philosophy. The primary focus of this study is to investigate whether the Gospel of John merely adopts a Greek philosophical term or instead introduces a fundamental transformation in its meaning. Using a comparative-historical analysis and theological hermeneutics, this study finds that although there are terminological similarities between the Heraclitean Logos, the Stoic Logos, and the Logos in the Gospel of John, they differ significantly at the conceptual level. In Greek philosophical tradition, the Logos is understood as a cosmic rational principle or an impersonal force that orders the universe. In contrast, the Gospel of John presents the Logos as a divine person who becomes incarnate God present in human form. This concept reflects a radical theological transformation not found in earlier Greek philosophical traditions. The study concludes that while John employs terminology familiar within the Jewish-Hellenistic world, he simultaneously redefines it by giving it a new and profound ontological meaning. Thus, the Logos in the Gospel of John functions not only as a contextual theological medium of communication but also affirms the uniqueness of the doctrine of the Incarnation in Christianity without compromising its theological identity.
