Abstract

Tulisan ini secara khusus hendak memberikan sebuah pemahaman dan penerapan tentang bagaimana orang percaya seharusnya memiliki kehidupan yang memuliakan Tuhan menurut 1 Petrus 4:7-11. Penulis melakukan penulisan dengan pendekatan kualitatif yaitu metode observasi dengan pendekatan deskriptif analitis berdasarkan hermeneutik yakni interpretasi teks dengan analisis tekstual untuk mendapatkan makna dari teks. Sehingga dapat diketahui bahwa Kehidupan memuliakan Tuhan adalah cara perseorangan maupun kelompok orang percaya yang menunjukkan kemuliaan Tuhan melalui doa yang benar, mengasihi dengan tulus, dan melayani sesuai karunia yang dianugerahkan agar kemuliaan Tuhan dinyatakan menjelang kedatangan Tuhan dengan semakin bersatu sekalipun dalam penderitaan. Memuliakan Tuhan itu sendiri berarti sikap hati dan tindakan yang benar di hadapan Tuhan setiap saat untuk selalu menampilkan Kristus. Namun, masih banyak kehidupan orang percaya yang belum secara optimal memuliakan Tuhan baik setelah pandemic covid-19 saat ini maupun di masa sebelumnya yang hidup sesuai dengan pola-pola ilahi yang dibenarkan dalam Kitab Suci, salah satunya yang terdapat dalam 1 Petrus 4:7-11.

Abstract

Perpuluhan merupakan bagian yang tidak terpisahkan dari kehidupan kekristen di masa lalu hingga sekarang ini, perpuluhan merupakan bukti nyata umat peduli terhadap kegiatan penatalayanan di lingkup gerejawi dan masyarakat. Tetapi Dewasa ini ada begitu banyak orang Kristen yang memiliki konsep perpuluhan yang keliru, konsep perpuluhan yang keliru ini tentu dapat menghambat pekerjaan penatalayanan di gereja sehingga pelaksanaan penatalayanan yang dilakukan dalam lingkup gereja tidak lagi efektif sesuai dengan nilai dan prinsip Alkitabiah. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui seperti apa konsep perpuluhan yang terdapat dalam Alkitab dan seperti apa penerapannya bagi Gereja Kemah Injil Indonesia dan secara khusus Jemaat Silo Kalunan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah agar dapat memberikan pemahaman yang benar bagi jemaat dan gereja dalam hal memberikan perpuluhan kepada TUHAN. Adapun metode yang digunakan dalam karya ilmiah ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif. Adapun hasilnya adalah agar orang Kristen dapat mengerti dengan benar konsep perpuluhan menurut perspektif Alkitab dan penerapannya bagi gereja dimasa kini.

Abstract

The background of the problem is the lack of enthusiasm in early childhood and the lack of parental ability in accompanying early childhood into bad habits and also the lack of God's word to early childhood so that mistakes occur in bad behavior, for example shouting, cursing, like hitting, not wanting to worship, and likes to fight parents.

Second, understand religion, such as religious values, the introduction of the Lord Jesus, the procedures for worship and prayer, and the implementation of religion in life. Third, early childhood can pray, memorize, sing, and testify about Jesus. Description of Theological Study of Early Childhood Education in the Bible consists of: First, the Old Testament. Spiritual education and formation in the Old Testament world usually took place at home, in the context of worship and at court. Of course there is no education that is ready for everyone as in the present era. In general, the family context is the most central place for education and coaching. Second, the New Testament. The role of parents in building perseverance in early childhood, fathers in Christian families are expected to start introducing perseverance as early as possible since children can communicate or respond when spoken to or taught something, for example, perseverance in praying is taught to early childhood, namely praying before going to bed, wake up, and every time you want to eat. Third, Bible Analysis. Moses warned the Israelites to teach the word of God to children from an early age from every generation. How important is God's word to be an inheritance for early childhood according to the Torah, even early childhood must understand the confession of faith. God's church must do the same, which is to teach children from an early age as a new generation. The gospel is the good news of knowing the person and work of redemption of the Lord Jesus that must be taught to children from an early age from every generation.

Abstract

The development of the times in the country's leadership alone cannot be separated from social criticism which is inserted in the creator's content messages in the form of jokes or poetry or also parodies of songs as a form of resistance to the arbitrariness of the authorities. This article aims to instill anti-critical Christian leadership in Christian ethical values which can be the answer for Christian leaders to dedicate themselves to being in servant leadership. Using a descriptive qualitative method with a literature study approach where the Bible is the primary source, it can be concluded that grounding anti-critical Christian leadership in Christian ethical values is first, leaders can clearly understand the Nature of Good Leadership in Christian Leadership based on Christian ethical values. This becomes the foundation and basis for actualizing leadership with the character of Servant leadership, so Anti-Criticism is something that can be well received and of course it is in line with the values and responsibilities of leadership based on the Bible. Therefore, called believers are expected to be able to instill anti-criticism Christian leadership in Christian ethical values so that they have leadership attitudes and responsibilities in the Circle of Criticism that can be dedicated to church ministry and ministry holistically.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze the strategy of local churches, in this case, tribal churches that exist in GKE Resort Tewah, for sustainability and financial independence by building businesses owned by the church. The method used is exploratory qualitative with observation, interview, and documentation study techniques. This paper concluded that the church, as a non-profit organization, can build a business to support church finances. Local churches build businesses as one of the church's financial management strategies sourced from the empowerment of church assets. Empowerment of local church assets is classified as a business in the form of investment in property assets included in non-current assets. Income from church-owned businesses is recognized and recorded as general church income so that the income is used to fund church operations. Business ownership by local churches today can be one of the strategies to achieve the financial independence of the church and the sustainability of local churches that depend on the offerings given by the congregation.
