Abstract

The existence of Jesus in the world at the past time has raised many questions about who He really is. He has the power to carry out powerful and miraculous services that other ordinary human beings cannot possibly do. Pluralists and Liberals question the existence of Jesus; is he really the God who has descended from heaven and become human. To see the existence of the two, it is known the Christology from above and below. This article aims to criticize that theory. The method used is descriptive, using related variables to explain the ratio of both theories of Christology. Abstrak: Kehadiran Yesus di dalam dunia pada masa lalu telah memunculkan banyak pertanyaan tentang siapakah Dia sesungguhnya. Ia berkuasa melakukan pelayanan yang penuh kuasa dan mujizat yang tidak mungkin dapat dilakukan oleh manusia biasa lainnya. Kaum Pluralis dan aliran Liberal mempersoalkan keberadaan Yesus; apakah Ia benar-benar Tuhan yang telah pernah turun dari surga dan menjadi manusia. Untuk melihat keberadaan yang dua itu dikenallah teori Kristologi atas dan bawah. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengkritisi teori tersebut. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif, menggunakan iteratur yang terkait untuk menjelaskan nisbah kedua teori kristologi tersebut.

Abstract

The diversity of the Indonesian population on the one hand is the strength of the Indonesian nation, but it can also be a trigger for the disintegration of fellow nation's children. The number of SARA conflicts that occurred after the reformation gave rise to superiority in various levels of society to the superiority of religion. Through this paper, the writer describes reducing superiority and practising just and civilized human precepts. Using descriptive qualitative research methods, it can be concluded that in order to reduce superiority and also in practising the precepts and norms contained therein, what needs to be done as follows: First, every child of the nation must be able to eliminate the sense of superiority from all sides towards respect for others by reducing the wrong paradigm of the nature of humanity. Second, continue to strengthen and continue to practice unity and integrity as the basis of the nation and state. Third, believers can see the human side from a Christian perspective which can be a guide in actualizing the Christian faith in upholding human values. Abstrak Keberagaman penduduk Indonesia di satu sisi merupakan kekuatan bangsa Indonesia, namun juga dapat menjadi pemicu disintegrasi sesama anak bangsa. Banyaknya konflik SARA yang terjadi setelah reformasi, menimbulkan superioritas diberbagai lapisan masyarakat sampai kepada superioritas agama. Melalui tulisan ini penulis mendeskripsikan tentang mereduksi superioritas seba-gai pengamalan sila “Kemanusian yang adil dan beradab”. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif deskritif, dapat disimpulkan bahwa untuk mereduksi superioritas dalam mengamalkan sila dan norma yang terkandung di dalamnya maka yang perlu dilakukan sebagai berikut: Pertama, setiap anak bangsa harus dapat menghilangkan rasa superior atas sikap menghargai sesama dengan mere-duksi paradigma hakikat kemanusiaan yang salah. Kedua, tetap memperkokoh dan terus meng-amalkan persatuan dan kesatuan sebagai dasar hidup berbangsa dan bernegara. Ketiga, orang percaya dapat melihat sisi kemanusiaan dalam perspektif Kristiani yang dapat menjadi tuntunan untuk mengaktualisasi iman Kristen dalam menjunjung tinggi nilai kemanusiaan.

Abstract

Hearing about the word "logos" often causes people to been set of leading their thoughts to the confusing Greek philosophy. Indeed for Greek philosophers, the word refers to the group of angels they know by the name demiourgos. This demiourgos angel according to Greek philosophy became human. If this thought is followed, then what turns into a person is not God but angels. For this reason, the notion of logos according to Christianity differs from the beliefs of philosophers. Christian logos are God's incarnated Word. Abstrak: Mendengar kata “logos” seringkali orang terjebak yang mengarahkan pikirannya ke filsafat Yunani yang membingungkan itu. Memang bagi filsuf Yunani, kata itu mengarah kepada kelompok malaikat yang mereka kenal dengan nama demiourgos. Malaikat demeourgos inilah menurut filosofi Yunani yang menjadi manusia. Jikalau pemikiran ini diikuti, maka yang menjelma menjadi manusia itu bukkan Allah tetapi malaikat. Karena itulah, pengertian logos menurut Kekristenan berbeda dengan keyakinan para filsuf. Logos orang Kristen adalah: Firman Allah yang menjelma.

Abstract

The Bible is a Christian holy book and is believed to be the word of God, even though there is a lot of technical controversy with its terminology. The Bible is written in two major languages, Hebrew and Greek, besides some parts in Aramaic. In the process of becoming an Indonesian-language holy book, there are controversies that invite a lot of disputes, even some of the most correct claims. This includes the use of the word "Allah", which some groups consider inappropriate, because it is not the true identity of the Creator. The use of the word God to show the Creator is considered a fatal act, including the identity of other gods, so the use of YHWH or Yahweh is what the Bible should use. This article is a qualitative review of the literature using descriptive methods. In conclusion, the use of the word God in the Bible is not wrong, because it is a legacy from the apostles in the New Testament. Abstrak Alkitab merupakan kitab suci orang Kristen dan diimani sebagai firman Allah, sekalipun ada banyak kontroversi secara teknis dengan pengistilahannya. Alkitab ditulis dalam dua bahasa besar, Ibrani dan Yunani, selain beberapa bagian dengan bahasa Aram. Dalam prosesnya menjadi kitab suci berbahasa Indonesia ada hal-hal kontroversi yang mengundang banyak perselisihan, bahkan tidak sedikit klaim yang paling benar. Termasuk di dalamnya pengunaan kata “Allah”, yang oleh sebagian kelompok dianggap tidak pantas, karena bukan identitas Sang Pencipta yang sejati. Penggunaan kata Allah untuk menunjukkan Sang Pencipta dianggap tindakan yang fatal, memasukkan identitas allah lain, sehingga penggunaan YHWH atau Yahweh itulah yang seharusnya digunakan Alkitab. Artikel ini merupakan kajian kualitatif literatur yang menggunakan metode deskriptif. Kesimpulannya, penggunaan kata Allah dalam Alkitab bukanlah sesuatu yang salah, karena itu merupakan warisan dari para rasul di Perjanjian Baru.

Abstract

The Indonesian people live in various differences, ethnicity, culture, language, religion. This difference is a priceless wealth of the nation. However, if it is not managed properly, it will turn into an enormous threat to the unity and integrity of the nation. Religious harmony is a relationship among religious communities based on tolerance, mutual understanding, mutual respect, respect for equality in the practice of their religion and cooperation in social, national and state life within the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. To realize this harmony, the state makes laws and regulations regarding the maintenance of religious harmony. UUD 29 of the 1945 Constitution states that the state is based on Belief in One Almighty God and guarantees the freedom of the population to embrace religion and practice worship according to their beliefs. The government as the leader of the country has provided a number of laws and regulations which, if obeyed by the public, will become a means of unifying a nation that is rich in diversity. The government cannot work alone to create and maintain this harmony, bearing in mind that this involves a lot of issues of beliefs and principles that the community adheres to. The government must partner with: Religious leaders, whose role is to provide understanding to their respective followers in fostering and preserving inter-religious harmony in accordance with their religious teachings. Community leaders as people who are imitated by certain community groups act as facilitators to bridge communication and interests within diverse community groups. Maintenance of religious harmony is a joint effort made between religious communities and the government in the field of service, regulation, and empowerment of religious communities through inter-religious dialogue
