Abstract

Fostering comprehensive spiritual growth was both facilitated and complicated by the rapid integration of digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) in contemporary church ministry. Digitalization enhanced ministry effectiveness, involvement, and communication, yet research indicated that technological advancement did not necessarily foster spiritual maturity. Many churches used AI-generated sermons, devotionals, and media without a theological framework to ensure that such content strengthened faith rather than merely boosting visibility. Grounded in the moral and theological precepts of Philippians 4:8, this study sought to develop a strategic model for AI use in church ministry. It employed a qualitative literature-based method and synthesized empirical studies on digital churches, reports on AI-enabled ministry, and contemporary theological scholarship to evaluate how the chapter’s eight virtues could guide content filtering and digital governance. The results identified five pillars: mission-oriented design, theological oversight, discernment-based curation, ethical-aesthetic coherence, and spiritual impact assessment. Through Spirit-led digital stewardship, this study presented a biblical value-anchored AI paradigm that positioned AI as a servant of the Gospel.

Abstract

This study explores the biblical and theological foundations of servant leadership as revealed in Mark 10:43-45 and examines its application within the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Rooted in the teachings of Jesus Christ, servant leadership presents a countercultural model of authority centred on humility, love, and sacrifice. The research integrates biblical exegesis with theological reflection, emphasizing how the principles of servant leadership are affirmed and expanded through the writings of Ellen G. White, particularly in her discussions on character formation, spiritual influence, and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Utilizing an applied theology methodology, this paper analyses how Christ’s paradigm of leadership can strengthen spiritual growth, increase member participation, and promote sustainable community development within the Adventist context. The study concludes that servant leadership, when faithfully practiced, transforms not only organizational structure but also the spiritual DNA of the church—turning it into a living reflection of Christ’s humility and selfless love.

Abstract

This article critically examines liberation theology’s perspective on the Church's political involvement, with a particular focus on its Latin American origins, hermeneutical foundations, and theological implications. Rooted in the socio-political struggles of the mid-20th century, liberation theology emerged as a response to systemic poverty, oppression, and injustice, advocating for the Church’s active engagement in transforming unjust social, economic, and political structures. Drawing on key theologians such as Gustavo Gutiérrez, Leonardo Boff, and Jon Sobrino, this study analyses the movement’s use of biblical narratives—particularly the Exodus—and its interpretation of Jesus’ ministry as inherently political. Employing a descriptive-evaluative methodology through library research and critical analysis of primary and secondary sources, the article explores how liberation theology redefines salvation as historical praxis and the Kingdom of God as a call to revolutionary justice. While affirming the movement’s prophetic emphasis on the preferential option for the poor, the article also critiques its potential reductionism in biblical hermeneutics and its tension with traditional ecclesial understandings of Christ’s apolitical mission. The discussion concludes that while liberation theology offers a necessary corrective to ecclesiastical detachment from suffering, its political framework requires careful integration with broader theological themes such as sin, grace, and eschatology to avoid ideological captivity. This evaluation contributes to contemporary theological discourse by offering a balanced assessment of liberation theology’s enduring relevance and limitations.

Abstract

The three angels’ messages (3AM) in Rev 14:6–13 are worldwide in scope. They contextually fit in the COVID-19 pandemic and other challenging situations. The message, media, and mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church are embedded in the 3AM. The identity of the target addressees, proclaiming angels, timing, and meaning of the 3AM are investigated in connection to the message, media, and mission of the church through the lens of the biblical-historical method of exegesis and historicism. The proclamation of the 3AM to the target fivefold group (“the earth-dwellers” and “every nation, tribe, tongue, and people”) is significantly relevant to the current pandemic and troublous times in preparation for the impending punitive judgment and the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Abstract

The development of Church liturgical music today cannot be separated from the development of Church music over time. It is commonly understood that attempting to describe the over 2000-year history of the Church's music in a single tract is impractical. As a result, the breakdown is broad, allowing us to see the progression of Church music from one epoch to the next. Church music is influenced or exists in the context of history as a whole, as well as the context of music history as a whole. This paper focuses on the systematic review and examination of published primary sources that are kept in various collections, libraries, and record centers. The bibliography digs deeper into these sources as well as archival collections. The history of liturgical music has its unique musical style in every era. There is Baroque music (17th century), Renaissance music (15-17th century), Classical music (18th century), Romantic music (19th century), Impressionist music (late 19th century) but faded after World War I, and various modern music of the 20th century, both profane (such as jazz, tango, pop, rock, and so on) and religious. Today, music is regarded as an integral aspect of the Church's liturgy. Keywords: Church, Church Music, Liturgy, Music History

Abstract

Different concepts and motifs have been studied from the book of Daniel by expositors and interpreters without much consideration to the Aramaic terms that have worship nuances, undertones, and connotations. Through a contextual study, this paper contends that the Aramaic שׁבח highlights worship and its implication as integral to the book of Daniel. The study argues that שׁבח is an Aramaic worship expression and its contextual use emphasizes the sovereignty of God. The term’s usage in Daniel highlights the milieu of worship and uplifting either a deity or gods and the God of heaven. However, when idol worship is amplified, the effect is the pronouncement of judgment on the people carrying out such worship.

Abstract

The Christian faith arose from a Jewish cultural and religious background. The earliest Christians were Jews who observed the various Jewish religious practices including the Saturday Sabbath. In the early centuries, many Gentiles converted to Christianity. With the persecution of the Christians by the Jews and the Romans, the Christians distanced themselves from the Jews. They rejected many of the Jewish customs and practices including the Sabbath. In the early centuries, the change from the Sabbath to Sunday was made. Since then, Christianity has been divided doctrinally on the Sabbath and Sunday issue. The Roman Catholic Church played significant role in the origin and observance of Sunday. This paper is an attempt to understand the teachings of the Catholic Church on the Sabbath and Sunday. The study reveals that the Church bases its teachings on the subject on different biblical hermeneutics supported by Church Tradition. The Church argues for a replacement theology for the Jewish Sabbath on the ground of the resurrection of Christ. It also claims to have made the change from the Sabbath to Sunday on divine prerogatives and authority vested in the Church by God.
