Analisis Eksegesis Kata Dunamin dalam Markus 6:5 Dikaitkan Dengan Pelayanan Yesus dan Pertumbuhan Iman
Full text linkThis study aims to conduct an exegesis analysis of the word “dunamin” in Mark 6:5 and relate it to the ministry of Jesus towards the growth of faith of believers. In general, the word miracle is considered as an act of God or a miracle of healing, while the word miracle in Mark 6:5 is more than the real meaning. The expression “δύναμιν” in Mark 6:5 translates as “power” or ‘strength’ of God greater than the miracle “θεραπεύω” and has a deep meaning in the context of Jesus' ministry. In Mark 6:5, it is stated that Jesus could not perform a single miracle in Nazareth because of their unbelief. This study uses a qualitative approach with the method of exegesis of the Greek text of the New Testament. The result of this analysis found that the limitation of the expression “dunamin” in this passage does not reflect the weakness of Jesus' power, but rather shows the close relationship between faith and acceptance of God's work. The implication of this finding is that Jesus' ministry is not only about the unilateral delivery of power, but awaits an active response in the form of faith from the recipient, the acceptance of which is called “repentance”. Thus, repentance is an important factor in opening up space for the work of God's power to work in the lives of Christians in the growth of faith
Fenomena Konversi Agama dalam Perspektif Agama Hindu dan Agama Islam: Studi Komperatif Terhadap Kehidupan Beragama
Full text linkThe phenomenon of religious conversion is a complex social and spiritual phenomenon that is often discussed in the religious life of society. This study aims to examine the dynamics of conversion from the perspective of Hinduism and Islam by highlighting the causal factors and the accompanying social and theological implications. The method used is the phenomenology of religion approach and analysis of religious texts from both religions. The results of the study show that religious conversion is not only influenced by spiritual motivation, but also by internal factors such as personality and psychology, as well as external factors such as the environment, marriage, and social pressure. The external factor that most influences religious conversion is interfaith marriage. In the Hindu view, conversion is considered a form of denial of dharma and has an impact on spiritual life and social rights, such as inheritance. Meanwhile, in Islam, the act of apostasy is considered a form of rejection of the teachings of monotheism, with different theological and legal consequences depending on the context. These findings emphasize the importance of a wise and tolerant approach in responding to religious conversion, as well as the need for a space for dialogue between religious communities to build mutually respectful understanding
The Fading (Lost) Colour of Reformed Theology in Reformed Churches in Indonesia and the Urgency of Reformation in the 21st Century
Full text linkThis study aims to reveal the fading (lost) colour of Reformed theology in churches with Reformed backgrounds or patterns in Indonesia as a reason for the urgent reformation agenda at the beginning of the 21st century (today). This objective is motivated by the gap between Reformed theology that faithfully upholds the truth of the Bible and the compromise of church leaders and/or theologians that results in the fall of the church and the loss of hope for the world (tragic). The research used historical-theology method, with the finding that the fading colour of Reformed theology in some Reformed churches denominations in Indonesia started since the entry of Reformed theology and churches that have been "castrated", taken captive (colonised) by state churches that are not interested in theology, lied to by the strong influence of modern liberal theology trends and postliberal postmodern theology trends, and fooled by the imposition of Western Christian culture and the denial of local culture, which resulted in the alienation of Reformed theology in Indonesia. This very alarming condition results in the loss of identity, guidance and the (fundamental) spiritual influence of Reformed theology. This finding is an input for the churches to be open to an urgent reformation agenda as the only solution

Full text linkThis research aims to explore the theological meaning of Psalm 84:2, 3, and 5 and how it relates to understanding the presence of Generations Y and Z in Sabbath worship, especially within the Northern Sabah Mission. By using an exegetical approach to the Hebrew and Greek texts, along with expert interpretations and the historical background of Psalm 84.

This research recommends a more holistic and contextual pastoral approach, including: deeper and more personal spiritual mentoring; worship services that are inclusive and meaningful without losing theological depth; building communities that are relational and allow participation, and using digital media as a new space for faith-building and sharing the gospel. Furthermore, actively involving young people in church ministry is seen as key to shaping their spiritual identity.
