Abstract

This research examines the participation of Generation Z in the Eucharist and its implications for fostering peace within the context of the Protestant Church in the Mollucas (GPM). The background of this study is rooted in the social conflicts experienced in Maluku, which have impacted Generation Z and necessitate their preparation to avoid replicating the traumas of the past. Through the Eucharistic liturgy, this generation can discover the meaning of reconciliation and cultivate harmonious relationships with God, oneself, others, and the natural world. This research employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methodologies, and involves Generation Z from the Rehoboth and Ameth congregations. The focus of the study is on how Generation Z understands the meaning of the Eucharist, their participation in worship, and its effects on the preservation of peace in Maluku. The findings suggest that while Generation Z acknowledges the Eucharist as a sacred sacrament, the meanings and values it embodies are often not integrated into their daily lives. This study aims to formulate a contextual liturgy of the Eucharist that can respond to the voices and needs of Generation Z in creating peace as peace builders.

Abstract

This article discusses the Book of Revelation, which is often perceived as a frightening book due to its abundance of apocalyptic symbols and confusing, terrifying end-time narratives. Such interpretations have caused fear and confusion, particularly among modern readers, regarding the concept of the end times. This article addresses this issue with the aim of re-examining the core message of Revelation by analyzing Revelation 21:1–8. This passage is understood as the climax of the revelation, emphasizing God’s promise of salvation and renewal. The method used in this study is a literature review combined with a historical-critical exegetical approach to explore both the historical context and the theological meaning of the text. The findings reveal that Revelation 21:1–8 presents an eschatological vision filled with hope, affirming that salvation is the central message of the Book of Revelation. Therefore, although the book begins with seemingly frightening symbols and narratives, readers should not remain trapped in fear. Instead, they are encouraged to understand the entire book as a progressive unveiling of God's love and salvation for humanity. In this way, the end times should no longer be seen as a terrifying event, but rather as the beginning of the salvation that God offers to humankind.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the cosmological idea of the Manusa community as “guardians of Nunusaku” in relation to ecological and theological perspectives in responding to global warming. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study examines the understanding and practices of the Manusa community that emphasizes the spiritual relationship between humans, nature, and God. The concept of mara’a nunue ai welu reflects the ancestral responsibility to preserve the ecosystem through traditional practices rich in spiritual and ecological values. The findings of the study indicate that the behavioral patterns of the Manusa community contribute to maintaining ecological balance through respect for nature and wise management of resources. This perspective is in line with organic theology and the concept of Imago Dei, where humans are divinely mandated to treat, not exploit, nature. Thus, an ecological understanding of humans can enrich ecological theology in fostering ethical awareness for environmental sustainability.

Abstract

People always imagine “the day of the Lord” as matters that have relation with the second coming of Jesus Christ, a day of judgment, and the future. But, the concept of the day Lord as witnesses in the book of Amos is always related to the present time of Amos, not the future, as we had been imagining before. The purpose of this article is to examine the meaning of Amos 5:18-20 using the critical historical interpretation. The result shows  us that the meaning of the day of the Lord in Amos 5:18-20 is about the social justice renewal in society. This spirit of Amos’s prophecies enables  Christians, the church, and society to understand social justice renewal as the call of faith that must be continuously internalised and practised.

Abstract

This article develops a pastoral theology that is suitable for the lifestyle and context of individuals in Manado, serving as contextual pastoral counselling. Similar to how theology is influenced by its context, pastoral theology is similarly shaped by its specific context. Despite its inclusion within Indonesia, the background of Manado diverges from that of other locations in the country. Consequently, the pastoral theology perspective that is formulated will also vary. By employing the techniques of observation and literary analysis from a lived religion perspective, it was determined that the pastoral approach developed in Manado originates from the setting of a prominent consumerist lifestyle, which is characteristic of the people in Manado within the larger Indonesian society. The commonly repeated statement that is said to support this lifestyle is "biar kalah nasi mar jang kalah aksi" (even if you don't eat, you have to be stylish). This extravagant lifestyle has the potential to create issues within the family and give rise to numerous other familial problems, as it is associated with excessive spending or squandering of significant amounts of money.

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the meaning of the calling as a pastor in the context of the GKI Kemtuk Gresi in Papua. A pastor is called and sent by God to serve the congregations. Service to the congregation is holistic, encompassing all dimensions of human life. However, this service cannot be fully implemented if the pastor is not in the midst of the congregation's struggles full time. This study discusses the phenomenon of weekend pastors, who visit the congregation only on Saturdays and Sundays. With a qualitative approach and using a holistic and transformative Christian spirituality perspective, this study describes the reality of weekend pastors, and constructs the concept of a pastor's spirituality. The study revealed that love for the calling is the main foundation that supports pastors amidst the pressures of ministry. However, separation from family, emotional exhaustion, and lack of support from the church community can erode this sense of calling. Thus, pastor spirituality must be fostered holistically, including relationships with God, self, family, and congregation. Referring to the insights of Henri Nouwen and Flora Slosson Wuellner, this article emphasizes the need for soul care, inner healing, and community support to maintain authentic and liberating ministry. Holistic and transformative spirituality not only prevents spiritual burnout but also strengthens the transformative impact of ministry on the lives of the congregation.

Abstract

Environmental degradation, particularly of marine ecosystems, has become a pressing global concern. This is particularly true for the Maluku archipelago, which is deeply connected to the sea. All forms of ecological destruction should be a shared concern, including for the church and its theological perspectives. Using the qualitative method and contextual theology approach, this study explores the cosmological values of the Hulaliu community as a way for Christian theology to contribute meaningfully to sea conservation in Hulaliu.  This research also expresses concern about the ecological crisis in the sea at Hulaliu and proposes cosmology as an alternative framework to shift from human-centered thinking toward a more profound care for the sea. The primary result of this research is that people of Hulaliu, in their cosmological idea, emphasize that the sea is more than just a source of livelihood; it is a space where local customs, rules, and social norms are formed. The community’s cosmological view understands the sea and the land as one interconnected whole, offering a form of local wisdom that supports environmental protection, including of forests, land, sea, and the wider ecosystem

Abstract

Living together in diversity in Indonesia is still a problem that is sometimes not noticed and can trigger riots regardless of race, class or religion. The same thing is also found in Deuteronomy 25:17-19 which shows the relationship betweenAmalek and Israel as a nation fullofwar, sothat ifnot interpretedcritically it cancauseadestructive attitude towardsevery people who live side by side with the other. This article aims to interpret using ideological criticism. The ideological criticism attempts to find the author's meaning and the reader's ideology which are included in the interpretation system. The law of Deuteronomy 25:17-19 is an ideology of resistance to the other, so that there is a dominant mode that makesAmalek a representation of the indigenous people who are specifically described by D source’s as having power in terms of religion, economy and politics. Therefore, the ideology of liberation as a counter ideology to free people from the power of the elite. The ideology of GOD's universal love for all nations is a counter ideology to YHWH's theology of liberation which does not limit itself to every nation. This understanding gives birth to an awareness of people who live in diversity not to act militantly/aggressively to achievetheinterests of individuals or certain communities. Rather, it is important to have an awarenessoflifethatcancreateanattitudeof mutualacceptance toward the other and living in an attitude of tolerance

Abstract

This research was conducted within the religious context of one of the indigenous tribes in Maluku, located in Siwalalat District, Central Maluku. This research examines the social changes in the spiritual patterns of the Naulu people following their adoption of the Abrahamic religions, specifically Islam and Christianity. Using qualitative research methods, this study aims to observe and understand the phenomenon of social change in the religious patterns of the Naulu Tribe after they adopted the Abrahamic religion, and to analyze it with a scientific approach, resulting in academic findings. The study's results show that the presence of the Abrahamic religions has altered the pattern of faith and community life. There is a process of growth and development of new cultures, new ways of life, and new mindsets in appreciating various values, including the influence of money, goods, education, and strong government politics. However, the Naulu people still maintain their traditional values, such as living simply, wearing cloth tied around their heads, and living dependent on forests and customary land as a true and fundamental way of life. They still hold fast to the traditional belief that land and forests are the cosmos of the original Naulu people. It is in the forests and customary land that they maintain the integrity of the Naulu Tribe's life, which is always connected to their ancestors. This finding represents the connection between the Samawi religion and the local cosmology of the Naulu people, which must be preserved as a contextual aspect of their religion.

Abstract

The Baduy community upholds an ecological philosophy that emphasizes harmony with nature, reflected in their prohibitions against excessive exploitation and their respect for maintaining a balance in the ecosystem. This principle aligns with the concept of environmental stewardship in Genesis 1:26-28, which underscores humanity’s responsibility to manage the earth wisely. Integrating these two perspectives can serve as a model for sustainable ecological ethics in Christian education. This study employs a theological and ethnographic approach to explore the alignment between Baduy ecological wisdom and biblical principles. The findings reveal that this model can enrich Christian education by fostering an eco-theological awareness that balances dominion over creation with responsibility for it. By adopting Baduy sustainability principles, Christian education can promote a more inclusive and contextually relevant ecological mindset among learners. This integration offers an ethical solution to the environmental crisis, emphasizing that Christian faith must be manifested in sustainable ecological practices.
