Christian witness in Indonesia, in an encounter with Islam, experienced rejection. The message about Jesus Christ (or Isa Al Masih) is acknowledged exist in Islam’s scripture, Al Qur'an, but has several different parts and even contrary to the New Testament. Some teachings about Jesus in the Qur'an are interpreted differently: 'Isa is the Kalimatullah (a word from God),' Isa is mercy, 'Isa will come again,' Isa is a justice Judge at the end of time and others, all that is different from the New Testament’s teachings. Christians, in their testimonies, tried to interpret and used the same terms. This gives rise to debate and is of course contrary to the ethics of faith, where religious teachings cannot be explained by the perspective of other religions. This study aims to obtain an objective view of Jesus Christ from the Islamic view to form an initial understanding for the preaching of the Christian faith, but this study is not intended to seek justification (or verification) of the Christian faith. This study only seeks an explanation of the Islamic version of Jesus Christ.Kesaksian Kristen di Indonesia, dalam perjumpaan dengan Islam, mengalami penolakan-penolakan.  Berita tentang Yesus Kristus (atau Isa Almasih) diakui ada dalam kitab suci Islam, Al Qur’an, tetapi pada beberapa bagian berbeda dan bahkan bertolak belakang dengan Perjanjian Baru. Beberapa ajaran tentang Yesus dalam Al Qur’an dimaknai secara berbeda: Isa adalah Kalimatullah (firman Allah), Isa adalah rahmat, Isa akan datang kembali, Isa adalah hakim yang adil di akhir zaman dan lain-lain, semua berbeda dengan ajaran Perjanjian Baru.  Orang Kristen, dalam kesaksian, mencoba menafsirkan dan menggunakan kesamaan terminologi-terminologi tersebut.  Hal ini menimbulkan perdebatan dan tentu saja bertentangan dengan etika iman, dimana ajaran sebuah agama tidak dapat dijelaskan dari perspektif agama lain. Penelitian ini bertujuan memperoleh pandangan obyektif tentang Yesus Kristus dari pandangan Islam untuk pembentukan pemahaman awal untuk pemberitaan iman Kristen, tetapi penelitian tidak dimaksudkan untuk mencari pembenaran (verifikasi) terhadap iman Kristen. Penelitian ini hanya mencari penjelasan dari versi Islam tentang Yesus Kristus.

Voltaire a, comme Érasme, le goût de la facétie. Comme Érasme également, il pense que les hommes, petits et faillibles face à la grandeur infinie de Dieu, devraient relativiser l’importance de leurs pratiques religieuses, limiter le nombre des définitions dogmatiques, et s’exhorter à la tolérance. Mais, contrairement à Voltaire, Érasme croit aussi que Dieu s’est incarné en Jésus-Christ. D’où son vif intérêt pour le Nouveau Testament, pour toutes les dimensions de la vie humaine, pour l’Église, qu’il souhaite unanime, et son insistance sur la paix et la joie intérieures des chrétiens, habités par l’Esprit divin.

This article addresses the issue of conflict between religious communities that cause enmity amid society. Hostilities must be overcome and resolved in accordance with the call of Christianity to live in love and peace. The study used the qualitative paradigm as the method of the research and the descriptive-analyses as the writing method by describing the research problems based on data collected from related publications.One of the powerful messages of Jesus's teaching is "Love your enemies." It’s one of the greatest challenges in life. Jesus Christ gave an important doctrine about loving the enemy because love is more powerful than evil, hurtful deeds. Loving the enemy means canceling hostilities and violence, but instead, it promises acceptance of each other. The title of this study is "love your enemies": A Christian Response to Embrace Others. As the title of this study is "love your enemies," the reason for the selection of this article is because the author sees that "loving the enemy is a commandment from God that must be obeyed. This research question emphasizes how to realize "loving the enemy" amid hostility. This paper argues that Jesus's command to love the enemy is a proper Christian lifestyle choice in the midst of hostility. We use CS Song thoughts, which elaborated with other scholars' views on theology, loving, and embracing others. The purpose of the research was to gain understanding and build a theological reflection on Jesus' commandment to love the enemy. In this article, we first briefly discuss the portrait of life among religious people in Indonesia. Secondly, we discuss the conflict between religious people in Indonesia. Finally, we apply the command of Jesus to love our enemy as a Christian lifestyle in the midst of hostility to construct harmony amid hostility. We propose the command of Jesus to ‘love your enemy’ as a response to establishing sustainable peace by embrace others. Finally, the Christians must become a loving community because God so loved us, and we also ought to love and embrace others.

The increase in migration at the international level also increases the number of religiouslymixed marriages. The Catholic Church advises against entering into such marriages because thisissue refers to the laws of God and the question of preserving faith. The Catholic Church approvesof mixed marriages in terms of nationality or race because belonging to the Church is primarilydetermined by faith in Jesus Christ and baptism in the name of the Holy Trinity. Independentlyof canon law, progressive social secularization is noticeable on that subject matter.

 In recent years social work has increasingly focused on spirituality and religion as key elements of cultural competency.  The Joint Commission—the nation's largest health care accrediting organization—as well as many other accrediting bodies require spiritual assessments in hospitals and many other mental health settings. Consequently, specific intervention strategies have been fostered in order to provide the most appropriate interventions for religious clients. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the fourth largest and one of the faster growing churches in the United States.  In an effort to facilitate cultural competence with clients who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ, a brief spiritual assessment instrument was developed.  This mixed-method study asked experts in Church culture (N = 100) to identify the degree of cultural consistency, strengths, and limitations of the brief spiritual assessment instrument. Results indicate that the framework is consistent with Church culture and a number of practice-oriented implications are offered.
