Abstract

Recent studies of Paul as a tentmaker tend to emphasize its applications to frontlier missions and entrepreneurship. In this paper, using historical-grammatical exegesis and biblical theological observations, I argue that these emphases are difficult to justify. Luke potraits Paul as a tentmaker in the context of his tabernacle theology that was closely intertwined with Paul's apostolic mission.

Abstract

The cross is a central symbol in Christian theology that contains fundamental meaning. The meaning of the cross in the letters of the Apostle Paul has strong doctrinal and historical substance. Letter 1 Corinthians is the main focus, in this study. Paul faced various issues and conflicts in the Corinthian church, responding by referring to the meaning of the cross as the center of his teaching. For Paul, the meaning of the cross was profound; through the cross, God revealed His love to redeem His people from their sins. This study aims to deeply explore Paul's thoughts on the meaning of the cross, how his views provide significant theological insights for human life. The method used is qualitative with a thematic analysis approach. The author of Paul's thoughts on the cross is based on textual searches and hermeneutical patterns. The results show that the cross provides a way of redemption, forgiveness, salvation, justification, becomes the center of solutions to various conflicts, and human problems. This research also contributes to the understanding and development of spirituality in the context of modern life where Christians can realize sincere love for others.

Abstract

The unwritten standard of beauty for women is white and clean. As a result, women face more emotional distress to achieve ideal beauty, but this standard of beauty is challenged in Song of Songs 1:5-6, which calls black and beautiful. This study is motivated by the gap in researchers who provide an understanding of the opposition to emotional distress from the standard of beauty from the perspective of women who say I am black but beautiful. The method used in writing this journal is qualitative with a literal study approach. In this writing, the author attempts to see and provide an understanding of the existence of self-acceptance beyond beauty standards based on Song of Songs 1:5. Thus, this research found that a false perspective of beauty can affect women's emotional disorders if it is not accompanied by self-acceptance and self-love.

Abstract

The book of Proverbs is a collection of wise sayings or wisdom that should be pondered and applied in life. Wisdom itself can be obtained through learning from teachers of wisdom and the upbringing and example of parents and by living wisely, one should have a better life, and achieve success. But what happens in Proverbs 6:1-11 is the opposite, the child becomes entangled in his words (verse 2), falls into the grasp of others or debt (verse 3), is labeled lazy (verse 6) and finally becomes poor (verse 11). Looking at the above problems, the question arises: "Why does the writer of Proverbs advise children to learn from the lives of ants? Was the wisdom of the teachers of wisdom and the parenting of the parents at that time no longer able to shape the character of the child to live better and think about his future? This is what the author is interested in discussing. So, to overcome the above problems, it is necessary to apply the right (biblical) parenting to children and learn wisdom by paying attention to good things in the surrounding environment such as the way ants live. So that children can avoid laziness, and poverty and can achieve success in the future according to their God-given potential. In researching Proverbs 6:6-11, the author used a qualitative descriptive method through the sources of wisdom books, commentaries, journals, the Bible, dictionaries, and other books. Through this research, it was found that there are three parenting patterns in shaping children's character through learning wisdom from ants, namely: First, avoiding laziness. Second, hard work and discipline. Third, wise time management.

Abstract

Transformation means change in relation to what Jesus Christ did. According to some theologians, Jesus lived in Palestine in the context of slavery at that time, but there is no information that Jesus forbade slavery. For this reason, the author examines using a historical study approach to provide answers to these problems. In this study, the authors find that slavery during the time of Jesus' ministry was not as understood by the world in today's context because slavery at that time was one of the options for survival. Slavery, cruelty, murder, abortion, end when the seed of the gospel is sown and that is what changes the human heart to love. There are many transformations that occur due to the influence of Christ's teachings, such as the social status of women before and after Jesus and so on. This research aims to convey to the world about the transformation that occurs due to the influence of the teachings of Jesus Christ that change everyone's hearts to love one another as fellow bearers of God's image and only with such awareness will bring people to one point of view that all people are valuable in God's eyes and When that consciousness is present in every human life then the act of theft, Robbery, murder and various crimes will come to an end. It is the teachings of Jesus Christ that can bring about this kind of transformation.

Abstract

Man is God's noblest creation with specific graces, namely free will and reason. However, this free will has led man to sin, believing that all of man has fallen into sin. Originally, man was created in the image of God with a consciousness of transcendence. In Christianity, sin has a contagious force that is difficult to contain. This research uses qualitative methods with a descriptive approach to answer research problems with literature sources such as books, journals, and articles. The aim is to provide an overview of how digitization affects the beliefs and practices of Christianity. The transformation of hamartology in early Christianity shows a change in views about sin during the development of Christianity. Early understanding was influenced by Jewish tradition with the Torah as a way of obtaining forgiveness of sins. Augustine saw original sin as coming from Adam and Eve, inherited by every human being. The nature of sin is thought to be rooted in man's free will conditioned to sin. Augustine recognized the importance of free will but stated that human will is conditioned by original sin. Redemption is possible only through God's grace and faith in Christ.

Abstract

Integrity is a subject of human life involved in acts of leadership in general, and acts of service in particular. In fact, the application of integrity does not always go smoothly. Two faces appear in a person: hypocritization and good work performances. Also the spread of various actions that are not in line with the Bible in the world of servant of God's ministry, is part of the fading of integrity. This study aims to present the strengthening of understanding of integrity through the discourse of integrity philosophy in three categories, namely: configuration, spectrum, and dimensions in the service of servants of God. The use of qualitative methods is carried out by combining data in various literatures to provide significant points in the three categories of integrity philosophy. The results showed that the philosophy of integrity presents the quality of understanding, knowledge, and strengthening of the configuration, spectrum, and dimensions of integrity. This research also contributes to Christians to endure the test and pass on integrity, thus having an impact on the pollination of the configuration, spectrum, and dimensions of integrity in the future.
