Abstract

Christian Religious Education (CRE) plays a significant role as a means of character formation for students within the complex multicultural context of Indonesia. CRE not only emphasizes understanding Biblical teachings but also instills values such as love, tolerance, and moral responsibility, which are relevant to cultural and religious diversity. In a diverse society, character education through CRE aims to shape individuals who respect differences, are able to live harmoniously, and serve as "salt and light" in society. Through an inclusive and dialogical approach, CRE teaches students to appreciate diversity without losing their Christian identity. This study employs a literature review method to identify the challenges and opportunities in implementing CRE as a character-building tool in a multicultural society. The results show that a multicultural approach in CRE creates space for interfaith dialogue, helps prevent intolerance, and shapes a generation committed to values of peace and love. Thus, CRE not only plays a role in students' faith formation but also in building the tolerant character needed in a pluralistic society

Abstract

This article discusses the importance of teaching Christian love amid the cultural and religious diversity in Indonesia. Diversity, which is a national treasure, should be nurtured through inclusive humanitarian values, where every individual is viewed as a fellow being worthy of love and respect. In this context, Jesus' teachings about love for one another and Martin Buber's concept of "I and Thou" play a significant role in fostering mutual respect.The article emphasizes that the biblical teachings on love, particularly in 1 Corinthians 13, serve as a foundation for creating positive and inclusive social interactions. By applying Christian values, society is expected to reduce prejudice and discrimination, as well as prevent conflict. The importance of instilling these values from an early age, both in families and educational institutions, is highlighted as a means to build a generation that is sensitive to differences. Through love and understanding, it is hoped that a harmonious and prosperous Indonesian society can be created, where every individual feels valued regardless of their background.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the life and influence of Simon Petrus, one of the closest disciples of Jesus Christ, in the context of Christian theology. From an ordinary fisherman, Petrus underwent a significant transformation into an early Church leader, marked by the change of his name to "Petrus," meaning "rock." This study explores Petrus important role in the spread of the gospel and the development of Christian doctrine, as well as the impact of his teachings on the understanding of Christian faith today. The method used is a qualitative approach with an analysis of literature, including biblical texts and relevant theological sources. The findings show that Petrus experience of denying Jesus and his restoration after Jesus' resurrection reflect human vulnerability and the power of forgiveness. Petrus teaching on salvation through faith is the basis for many Christian doctrines, including the concepts of redemption and eternal life. This study concludes that a deeper understanding of Petrus authority and role in various Christian traditions can provide valuable insights for modern church practice, as well as emphasize the importance of forgiveness and perseverance in faith for Christians today.
