Abstract

The research objectives are to find the principle of mourning for death according to the text of 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-14, analyze the dynamics of the congregation in the context of mourning, and describe the role of the church towards congregations who mourn death. Based on the research objectives, this research will present data in the form of a description of a theoretical concept, hypothesis questions regarding the status of the research subject, namely the verse text. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method to analyze the role of the church towards congregational mourning. This research uses the exegesis approach of Bible study, Bible software, and theological literature review. The research found that the church, as a spiritual and social entity, plays an important role in supporting the congregation in dealing with the grief of death. The church has the capacity to provide the necessary guidance and support in dealing with mourning. .  Paul in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 provides teaching on the hope of the resurrection of the dead in Christ at the coming of Jesus, as a basis for comfort over the death of a believer. Challenges in mourning can make believers lose hope as believers. It is hoped that this research will guide the Church in understanding and responding to the needs of mourning believers so that it can provide better support according to their context and needs.

Abstract

This research aims to explore and understand the meaning of social togetherness in the community carried out by followers of Ugamo Malim and the Protestants. Social togetherness is defined as the interaction, involvement, and relationship between individuals in a community group. Through a field research method with a descriptive qualitative approach, this research focuses on two different communities, namely Ugamo Malim followers and the Protestants. The methodological steps involved data collection through in-depth interviews as the main instrument. Interviews were conducted with three resource persons from each of the Ugamo Malim and the Protestants parties to gain an in-depth understanding of the concept of social togetherness. The qualitative data collected will be carefully analyzed to identify patterns, values, and beliefs that shape the meaning of social togetherness in the two communities. The results of the study are expected to provide a deep insight into how Ugamo Malim followers and the Protestants interpret and experience social togetherness. The comparison between the two groups is expected to identify similarities and differences in perceptions, practices, and values that underlie social togetherness. The implications of this research are expected to contribute to a cross-cultural understanding of the importance of social togetherness in shaping community solidarity and cohesion.

Abstract

This research uses qualitative methods with a focus on retelling the story of Cain killing Abel. Qualitative methods are used to deepen understanding of the symbolic role of Cain and Abel in the biblical text, especially in the Book of Genesis. The data collection technique used in this research is through analysis of various scientific journals that are relevant to the topic studied. Researchers identify and collect information related to the story of Cain and Abel from trusted and quality scientific sources. The main approach applied in this research is a semiotic approach. Through this approach, the author carries out an in-depth analysis of the symbolism contained in the story of Cain and Abel. The semiotic approach allows researchers to explore theological meanings and concepts that may be hidden behind the biblical narrative. During the research process, the author critically analyzed the symbolic meanings found in the biblical text, and the main goal was to support a richer understanding of the theological concepts contained in the story. The results of this research provide deep insight into the symbolic relationship between Cain and Abel, and contribute to theological understanding within a Biblical framework. This analysis also highlights the relevance of symbolic meaning in the context of theology and spiritual life, making an important contribution to theological literature and biblical understanding.

Through an interdisciplinary approach, this research tries to identify the factors that influence changes in understanding of religion, as well as how science contributes to these dynamics. This writing explores how religion and science meet in the context of modern society, outlining the challenges, conflicts, and potential for collaboration between the two. It will also look at the impact of these dynamics on understanding religion, science and humanity more broadly. This research will analyze the role of contemporary society in shaping the relationship between religion and science, and how it impacts individual values, ethics and identity. The main aim of this research is to provide in-depth insight into the role of religion and science in modern society and the way these dynamics continue to evolve as times change. It is hoped that the results of this research can provide deeper insight into the complex relationship between religion and science in contemporary society, as well as its implications for social and cultural changes that continue to develop.

Abstract

This research explores the importance of prayer in human life as a path to inner purity and a closer relationship with God. By aiming the prayer as an important life practice to open the path of reconciliation between man and God, the researcher uses a literature research method that examined the writings of the Syrian Fathers as a reference. The author synthesizes the book "The Syriac Fathers on Prayer and Spiritual Life" by Sebastian Brock as a theoretical foundation in discussing prayer life. In this article, the author elaborates on the thoughts of the Syrian Fathers to deepen the understanding of prayer life. A pleasing prayer life is one that unites thoughts, feelings, and desires to be directed towards Christ. To reach this level, there needs to be a deep and silent experience of prayer, where all aspects of human existence: body, soul and spirit can be united. Through this process, man can experience deep repentance, where a broken and tearful heart can be renewed and purified by the divine presence.

Abstract

This article explores theological school students’ perspectives on the Book of Ecclesiastes (Qoheleth) which influences the formation of their work ethic. Research reveals how understanding the Book of Ecclesiastes influences their attitudes and views toward work, calling, and spiritual ministry. The Book of Ecclesiastes is sometimes misunderstood as a book that emphasizes pessimism, but analysis shows that the message conveyed is actually realistic. The Book of Ecclesiastes actually teaches the importance of responsibility, discipline and integrity at work. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach but is accompanied by interviews with 30 seminary students to provide a rich diversity of student perspectives on the Book of Ecclesiastes in the context of student work ethic. The results show that many students face challenges in developing a good work ethic due to laziness, procrastinating, and other unethical actions. The discussion in this article illustrates how a correct understanding of this book can form a strong and responsible work ethic for theology students. Concrete steps such as coaching, establishing a conducive learning culture, curriculum review, and education about the importance of theological education are proposed to improve student work ethic. It is hoped that a correct understanding of the message of the Book of Ecclesiastes will help theological school students to develop a strong work ethic, integrity, and responsibility in carrying out their duties.

Abstract

The image of God as Mother in the Bible is a very interesting topic to be studied in depth. In the patriarchal context of the Bible, the image that is often used in understanding God is “Father.” God is always referred to as Father, even in His role as Father to His children, not Mother. This view has quite an impact on the way believers view God today, who see God as Father, and are known and addressed only as Father. For this reason, this study aims to explore the revelation of God's maternal side through the narrative of Genesis Chapter 3:1-24, which departs from a feminist perspective to see God from a Motherly perspective. Using a biblical studies approach and hermeneutical text analysis, this study seeks to reveal the image of God as Mother, as well as its implications for theological understanding in the contemporary context. Through in-depth analysis, this study identifies several elements that reflect God's motherhood, including God's great love and care for humans, the discipline and rebuke given, and the promise and hope offered. This image of God as a Mother provides a new perspective in understanding the character and nature of God who is not only a Father, but also a Mother who is compassionate, disciplining, and full of mercy and forgiveness.
