Abstract

The issue of euthanasia presents a serious ethical, theological, and pastoral challenge within contemporary Christian communities. Congregants facing terminal illness, chronic suffering, and loss of dignity often experience deep psychological distress, spiritual confusion, and existential despair. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method through literature review, theological-biblical reflection, and integration of pastoral counseling approaches. The research aims to construct a pastoral theological framework that helps congregants process suffering without losing their sense of meaning, dignity, and faith. The findings demonstrate that an integrative pastoral approach rooted in the theology of grace, imago Dei, and redemptive suffering can provide effective emotional, spiritual, and relational support. The study concludes that the church is called to become a community of accompaniment that upholds life while offering compassionate care amid moral and existential dilemmas.

Abstract

Substance addiction is a multidimensional issue that not only damages physical and psychological well-being but also disrupts a person's identity, relationships, and spiritual life. From a Christian theological perspective, such damage reflects a distortion of the Imago Dei, the human vocation to mirror God’s character and will. This study aims to examine the restoration of the Imago Dei as a theological foundation for formulating a Christian counseling approach that can support holistic recovery from substance addiction. This research employs a qualitative approach through a literature study by reviewing theological works, Christian counseling literature, and studies related to addiction, which were then analyzed to identify principles relevant to identity and behavioral restoration. The findings indicate that recovery from addiction requires spiritual renewal and identity reconstruction through the work of Christ and intentional pastoral care. These insights suggest that Christian counseling grounded in the restoration of the Imago Dei may be oriented through spiritual assessment, spiritual reframing, emotional healing, behavioral transformation, relapse prevention, and supportive faith communities. This study concludes that the restoration of the Imago Dei provides a robust theological and practical framework for developing Christian counseling approaches that promote holistic human recovery, particularly in the areas of identity and spirituality.

Abstract

Covenant Theology is one of the important pillars in Reformation theological thought that seeks to understand the relationship between God and His people through a consistent covenant framework throughout the biblical narrative. This paper examines the development of the concept of Covenant Theology in the Reformation tradition, especially as developed by figures such as John Calvin and post-Reformation theologians, and how this concept has been renewed in dialogue with contemporary theological and social contexts. This study uses a historical-theological and hermeneutic approach to trace the continuity and dynamics of change in the understanding of the covenant, both in the Old and New Testaments. It also emphasizes the contribution of Covenant Theology to the formation of Christian soteriology, ecclesiology, and ethics doctrines within the Reformation framework. The results of the study show that although the traditional roots of Covenant Theology are very strong, there is significant room for theological renewal that remains faithful to Reformation principles such as sola scriptura and sola gratia, without losing the richness of its historical heritage. Thus, Covenant Theology in the Reformation perspective continues to be relevant and dynamic as a bridge between the heritage of faith and the challenges of the modern era.

Abstract

Anxiety is a multidimensional psychological phenomenon, encompassing emotional, cognitive, physical, and spiritual aspects. In psychology, anxiety is understood as an adaptive response to life's pressures, but it can develop into a disorder if it hinders an individual's functioning. Meanwhile, Christian theology views anxiety not only as a psychological issue, but also as something related to human relationships with God, the meaning of life, and dependence on faith. Therefore, Christian pastoral counselling is seen as a relevant holistic approach to dealing with anxiety. This study aims to examine the application of Christian pastoral counselling with a Solution-Focused Brief Counselling (SFBC) approach in helping individuals overcome anxiety. The method used is library research by reviewing books and scientific articles that discuss anxiety, pastoral counselling, and SFBC. The analysis was conducted systematically to obtain a comprehensive theoretical understanding. The results of the study indicate that the integration of SFBC in pastoral counselling is effective in helping counselees to concretise their anxiety problems, recognise their spiritual strengths and resources, and build hope oriented towards recovery. The SFBC approach, which focuses on solutions and the future, is in line with Christian theological values that emphasise hope, restoration, and God's presence. It is concluded that SFBC-based pastoral counselling is an applicable and theological approach to treating anxiety holistically.
