AbstractThe topic of this article is the effects that the writings of feminist theologians, many of whom are Roman Catholic, have upon Catholic students. The questions it attempts to answer are: Has feminist theology served to alienate American Catholics further from the church, discouraging them from identifying with the tradition or institution, or has it awakened them to retrieve the tradition in a creative way and to take responsibility within the institution and reshape it? The article further seeks to differentiate between spirituality, theology, and religious institution. How will Catholicism affect the larger culture if this generation is alienated from institutional identification? If they settle permanently on alternative forms of religious identification and spiritual fulfillment the face of Catholicism in the future will be even more conservative than it is today. However, feminist theology may be the basis for hope. Seriously attended to by the church, it could help to inform the consciousness of the next generation.

In a recent article, Caroline M. Hibbard noted that recent work on Tudor-Stuart recusancy has focused on the enforcement of royal and statutory policy on the local level and has examined the social composition of the recusant community. These studies have revealed that the recusant community was not dominated by priests, not subject to the political directives of the papacy, and not plotting rebellion. The problem inherent in these local studies, as Professor Hibbard points out, is that they do not explain why the English were anti-Catholic and they do not examine the international character of the English Catholic Community. This article is an attempt to view the recusant problem from the perspective of the monarch and the privy council, because both monarch and privy council were aware of the international character of Catholicism and both stated clearly in their policies toward recusants the grounds of their objection to the Catholic community. An analysis of the recusancy policy established by Elizabeth between 1559 and 1574 reveals that her primary objection to the recusants was not religious but political. The recusants denied a fundamental claim of the monarch: the headship of the church and, therefore, the claim that the monarch was the source of all power within the realm. This article, then, will examine the ways in which she wished to contain a minority who denied her supreme power in the realm and the circumstances which caused the queen and the council to change that policy.

What does it mean by multiplication based on II Timothy 2:1-13? What is congregation growth? How relevant is it for today’s congregation? Paul gave commandment to Timothy regarding the strategy of multiplying disciples for up to four generation in II Timothy 2:2, this showed that Paul as a spritual parent or mentor duplicate timothy as the second generation and Timothy will entrust the multiplication to those reliable to teach other to grow and become the forth generation of Paul. The relevance of today’s congregation means to train and prepared the congregation to be disciples. The first generation takes important role specially the pastor who leads the church to give equipment through the teaching and evangelism training and emphasize the characteristic of a disciple. Assisting and supporting in prayer is also needed for the next generation up to the four generation so that there is multiplication movement of congregation that become the disciple of Jesus Christ.  AbstrakApakah yang dimaksud pelipatgandaan berdasarkan II Timotius 2:1-13 ?, dan  apa itu pertumbuhan jemaat?  Serta bagaimana relevansinya bagi jemaat masa kini? Paulus memberikan perintah kepada Timotius berkaitan dengan strategi pelipatgandaan murid sampai empat generasi dalam II Timotius 2:2, ini menunjukkan bahwa mulai dari Paulus sebagai orang tua rohani atau mentor melipatgandakan Timotius sebagai generasi kedua dari Paulus, kemudian Timotius mempercayakan lagi atau melipatgandakan lagi yaitu orang yang dapat dipercayai sebagai generasi ketiga dan berikutnya orang yang dapat dipercayai mengajar orang lain untuk bertumbuh yang menjadi  generasi keempat dari Paulus. Relevansinya pada jemaat masa kini, berarti jemaat harus dilatih atau disiapkan untuk menjadi murid, dan peran generasi pertama sangat penting disini, yaitu peran gembala yang memimpin gereja dengan memberikan perlengkapan-perlengkapan melalui pengajaran dan pembimbingan serta melalui pelatihan-pelatihan penginjilan serta terus menekankan tentang karakter murid, dan melakukan pendampingan juga memberikan dukungan doa pada generasi berikutnya, sampai generasi yang keempat sehingga terjadi gerakan pelipatgandaan jemaat yang menjadi murid Tuhan Yesus Kristus.

The most effective pioneers of mental revolution are learners. Learners are the next generation of this nation, and learners who will take many roles in the development of the Indonesian nation. The advanced nation is determined by the person involved in the care of the Indonesian people, the advanced church is determined by the youth and members of the congregation who are actively involved in it. It is undeniable that changes within the church and within this nation are much influenced by the nation's children. Thus, the bachelors involved in the church and the state must be the nation's children who have good character, have a steel mental who will firmly fight for the Indonesian people and gerind from corruption, collusion, nepotism and other attitudes that can divide an alliance both in the church and in the nation.

Sacred History

In identifying the history of Christ and the Gospel as the prime content of sacred history, Luther exhibited widespread Christological exegesis of the Old Testament prophets. Calvin read the original histories of the Old Testament prophets analogically to serve as a mirror of God’s providential activity with the church. Metaphor in particular functioned in distinctly different ways in their exegeses. While for Luther, Old Testament metaphors overwhelmingly pointed to the advent of Christ and the Gospel, for Calvin, metaphors—in direct distinction from allegorical reading—served as visual signposts of meaning precisely delimited by authorial intention, the prophet’s historical context, and the literary properties of the text. Such distinctions become consolidated along confessional lines in the next generation so that Christological exegesis and the interpretation of the Old Testament metaphors served as a prime site of Lutheran and Reformed confessional polemics.

I raised this title because I saw in my congregation most of the youths who were less active in fellowship either in church or other services, so this made me think that how the role of the gospel is so that i can have a good impact on youth who are less active in Chiristianly. Because youth are the next generation of the church, it is very important for youth to be active in a fellowship because from there the youth begin to learn and develop their potential. The gospel is one of the (spiritual) needs of our lives. The gospel is good news. Where we as Christians, especially in the ministry, there is our role to preach the gospel. The purpose of this study is to further explain how the impact of the gospel on youth who are less active in the fellowship, the method used in this study is a qualitative method because this research focuses more on theory.

ABSTRAK       Pelayanan Sekolah Minggu merupakan salah satu faktor yang cukup potensif dalam proses pertumbuhan Gereja. Lebih jauh lagi Sekolah Minggu merupakan wadah yang di pakai untuk mengajar anak-anak sesuai dengan pertumbuhan usia mereka. Pelayanan Sekolah Minggu membawa pengaruh yang positif terhadap pertumbuhan Gereja, karena anak-anak Sekolah Minggu akan menjadi generasi penerus Gereja yang melanjutkan tugas dan tanggung jawab Gereja sebagai saksi Kristus di tengah-tengah dunia yang penuh dengan tantangan ini. Tantangan yang akan di hadapi oleh Gereja pada masa yang akan datang semakin banyak di karenakan perubahan zaman dunia modern yang sudah tidak lagi mementingkan ajaran agama.   ABSTRACT         Sunday School service is one of the factors that is quite potential in the process of Church growth. Furthermore, Sunday School is a place that is used to teach children according to their age growth. Sunday School services have a positive influence on the growth of the Church, because Sunday School children will become the next generation of the Church who continue the Church's duties and responsibilities as witnesses of Christ in the midst of this challenging world. The challenges that will be faced by the Church in the future will be more and more due to the changes in the modern world era that are no longer concerned with religious teachings.

Pemuda-pemudi adalah generasi ke depan dalam keluarga, gereja, dan bangsa. Pemuda-pemudi merupakan pondasi dan generasi penerus gereja yang harus dibina dengan baik. Masa depan gereja terletak pada generasi muda yang akan menggantikan para orang tua, untuk melanjutkan pelayanan dalam gereja sehingga gereja terus berkembang dengan baik. Namun, pemuda-pemudi zaman sekarang kurang memiliki ketaatan dan kesetiaan kepada Tuhan, sehingga dalam mempertahankan imannya kepada Tuhan Yesus sangat susah. Oleh karena kurangnya bimbingan rohani sebagai pondasi dalam kehidupan mereka untuk membentengi setiap godaan maupun tawaran dunia yang membuat iman mereka hilang. Orang tua dan gereja sangat berperan penting dalam pertumbuhan iman mereka. Jika pemuda-pemudi memiliki kerohanian yang baik, memiliki hubungan yang dekat denganTuhan, makaia juga pasti memiliki iman yang teguh dan dapat mempertahankan imannya di dalam Tuhan Yesus. Young people are the next generation in the family, church and nation. Young people are the foundation and the next generation of churches that must be nurtured well. The future of the church lies in the younger generation who will replace the parents, to continue the ministry in the church so that the church continues to thrive. However, young people today have less obedience and loyalty to God, so that in defending their faith in the Lord Jesus is very difficult. Because of the lack of spiritual guidance as a foundation in their lives to fortify every temptation or offer of the world that makes their faith lost. Parents and the church are very important in the growth of their faith. If young people have a good spirituality, have a close relationship with God, then he also must have firm faith and can maintain his faith in the Lord Jesus.

At the turn of the twenty-first century church leaders and educators took for granted that Latter-day Saints shared the memory of Smith’s vision as their origin story and that it would automatically be transmitted to the next generation. Internet-empowered selectors and relaters disrupted that memory, however, leading many to question both the vision and whether they could trust the church regarding it and other points of history. Though slow to respond to the information age, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints remained the most powerful selector and relater of memory elements, and began introducing diverse and effective means of complexifying and solidifying a shared memory of Smith’s first vision.
