Christian religious education is a learning effort made to learn about the truth of God's Word. Where in every material that is taught there are things that are based on it so that it can be used as guidelines and well explained. In everyday life we are often asked questions, which make us keep trying to give the right answer so that someone who asks can be satisfied with what we have answered, besides that we will keep trying to find things that underlie the answers we give. And this is the same as our faith in our Lord. Therefore, in the process of teaching Christian education, we are taught to be able to defend our faith regarding the Word of God, so that when someone asks us, we can provide a correct understanding or what is called apologetics. And this Apologetic teaching is based on the Bible through the story of the apostle Paul's ministry which was very bold in preaching the existence of God. Where the Apostle Paul often made apologetics or his defense by using speech

Inerrancy means the Bible is infallible. Because the Bible was revealed by God the Holy Spirit Himself. Even though the researcher is a sinner; however, the initiator is a God who cannot do wrong. The Holy Spirit uses all the individual potentials (shortcomings and strengths) of the Bible writers and is completely under the leadership and control of the Holy Spirit, so that what the authors of the books of the Bible write do not come from the author, but from God concerning the Word of God himself. A Christian can accept this inerrant biblical quality, so he must also accept other biblical qualities. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method regarding the Christian education curriculum that must be based on the inerrancy of the Bible. Biblical inerrancy emphasizes that the Bible is the Word of God, the Bible was written without errors because the idea of writing came from God. The curriculum is structured based on the inerrancy of the Bible with the aim of Christian education so that learners know God's work of salvation in and through the Lord Jesus alone, so that they believe that Jesus is God, so that those who believe have eternal life and their lives are changed by the Holy Spirit through the power of the Bible. The power of the Bible is because the Bible is the Word of God. Nothing can survive under the sovereignty of God's written Word, which is the Bible. Therefore, the Christian religious education curriculum is built based on the Bible in order to achieve its goals.Ineransi berarti Alkitab tidak mungkin salah. Karena Alkitab diwahyukan oleh Allah Roh Kudus sendiri. Walau penelitinya adalah orang berdosa; namun, inisiatornya adalah Allah yang tidak mungkin berbuat salah. Roh Kudus menggunakan semua potensi individual (kekurangan dan kelebihan) penulis Alkitab dan secara utuh berada dalam pimpinan dan kontrol Roh Kudus, sehingga yang ditulis oleh penulis kitab dalam Alkitab bukanlah berasal dari penulis, melainkan dari Allah mengenai Firman Allah sendiri. Orang Kristen dapat menerima sifat Alkitab yang ineransi ini, maka ia pasti juga menerima sifat-sifat Alkitab yang lain. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif mengenai kurikulum pendidikan  Kristen harus didasarkan pada ineransi Alkitab.  Ineransi Alkitab menekankan Alkitab adalah Firman Tuhan, Alkitab ditulis tanpa ada kesalahan karena ide dari tulisan berasal dari Allah. Kurikulum disusun berdasar pada ineransi Alkitab dengan tujuan Pendidikan Kristen agar pembelajar mengenal karya keselamatan Allah di dalam dan melalui Tuhan Yesus saja, supaya percaya bahwa Yesuslah Allah, sehingga yang percaya beroleh hidup yang kekal dan hidupnya diubah oleh Roh Kudus melalui kuasa Alkitab. Kuasa Alkitab adalah karena Alkitab adalah Firman Allah. Tidak ada yang dapat bertahan di bawah kedaulatan Firman Tuhan yang tertulis, yaitu Alkitab. Karena itu kurikulum pendidikan Agama Kristen dibangun berdasarkan Alkitab agar mencapai tujuan.

In order to have a fruitful understanding of the nature of the Church, the Bible uses a variety of pictures, which when taken together form Church models by which believers live and act by. We have reviewed Church models in three categories: the first category is taken by Church models which are formed today by our everyday life; the second one are Church models which have been created by man throughout history; and third, the Church models which have a foundation in the Word of God. Church models formed by everyday life and man-made Church models can be used as negative examples of models to be changed and avoided, especially models of the Church as an institution and as a denomination. The Bible shows a particular reality and nature of the Church by using numerous different pictures from everyday life. These include pictures from the ownership system; the picture of the way the human body works; pictures from premarital, marital, and family life; pictures from architecture, agriculture, cattle breeding, fishery, and citizenship and patriotism. Each of the used pictures communicates one or more God’s truths in a way that is experientially very close and familiar to the listeners and readers. These pictures reflect life and point towards life. The 21st century Christianity needs to adopt and apply Biblical pictures of Church which, when taken together, form the Biblical Church model. As we establish this model, we need to focus on God and His purposes and plans for a specific time, place, and culture. Our communication with God needs to be completely open, and the Church needs to be prepared to follow God’s plans and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The Biblical Church model contains God’s (immutable) and human (mutable) elements. God is immutable, which is why anything that is permanent and immutable in Church comes from God, and what can and needs to be changed is anything that came from people. The human elements need to be aligned with God’s Word and the Holy Spirit’s guidance, so that the Church would be able to obey God’s will fruitfully.

The concept of choosing a life partner for young people today needs more attention. Incorrect selection will lead them to circumstances and family situations that are certainly not based on the Word of God. The planting of children's faith must begin at an early age so that it can become a guide for them when they grow up and start thinking about family life. The basics and criteria in choosing a marriage partner according to Christian teachings must be planted in children so that wherever they are or whatever environment they are in, they are still able to hold and have a principle of choosing the right life partner according to the Bible. , The family is a fellowship consisting of people who are bound by each other by the most close ties of blood and social relations. How a child grows into adulthood is influenced by the family. Parents must be good models of Christian faith in order to be effective role models for the internalization of Christian belief systems, values and patterns of behavior. Parents must first live in truth in order to be a model of faith for children, in 2 Corinthians 6: 14-15. The Apostle Paul wrote a letter to the Corinthians about a spouse because there were believers there who had a spouse who did not believe in Jesus. The Apostle Paul also said that no similarities could be found through marriage that did not worship the same God.

The basis of Christian ethics in living together and working is not in rules, but in God's unchanging character. As the image and likeness of God, humans have good social and relational relationships with one another. The problem in this research is that the damage to humans due to sin makes humans no longer able to have the character that comes from God in achieving their life goals and in living together. Humans face many challenges in life so that there is competition for millions of people in a place (Gen. 3: 17-19). Humans throw each other down, hate, jealousy, bribes, injustice happen everywhere. This research uses descriptive theoretical qualitative research methods through literature and biblical studies. The benefit of this research is that through the Christian Religious Education process, Christians are active in teaching and learning the truth of God's Word, teaching God's people that in Christ man is a new creation (Ephesians 2:10) to do good deeds. The conclusion in this research is that with a mind and conscience renewed by Christ, it is possible for humans to develop the world of creation and life together with honesty, holiness, justice and love. Man in Christ finds himself stronger and can bring honor to his Creator. God's character is reflected in the character life of Christians in fulfilling God's purposes. This Christian character cannot be obtained simply through shortcuts but can only be obtained through the process of Christian education.

Education is a basic effort to transform individuals. Teachers are the vanguard people who transform society and the nation through education. Christian religious education seeks change, renewal and reform of individuals and groups through the power of the Holy Spirit, so that students live according to God's will, as stated by the Bible and by the Lord Jesus Himself. In order for the purpose of this Christian Education to be achieved, transformative teachers are needed, namely teachers who are committed to the perspective of learning from a whole human perspective, in providing affective, cognitive, behavioral, and spiritual changes. This paper aims to formulate transformative Christian teacher criteria. Through literature review, observation, the main idea of the author is that a transformative teacher has the following characteristics: having spiritual competence, creating constructivist experiences in learning, having theological and teacher knowledge, being active in the community or fellowship of Believers, having a strong personal identity and integrity, having a commitment (determination) and Becoming an Example. Studying the six criteria above will help the willingness of educators to build human quality in the midst of today's moral morality. It is God who helps foster commitment and quality of life in educators to carry out their duties and calling as teachers

‘The right way, yea, and the only way, to understand the scripture unto salvation’, declared William Tyndale, is to seek in it, ‘chiefly J L and above all, the covenants made between God and us.’ For the Henrician heresiarch, the key to the reforming of England was the bible in translation, and the key to the bible was the idea of covenant. By the power of that idea he proposed to free England from the clutch of Rome: covenant would unlock scripture, cleanse it of popish corruptions and fit it to its work of reformation. Thus instructed, his countrymen would build their faith not on Roman sand but ‘on the rock of God's word, according to his covenants …’ Tyndale was not the first theologian to discover covenant in scripture, but he infused die concept with unprecedented energy: it became his cardinal principle of exegesis and the ruling element in his project of religious revolution.

ABSTRACTThe new political theology of obedience to the prince which was enthusiastically adopted by the Church of England in the 1530s was essentially founded upon Luther's new interpretation of the fourth commandment. It was mediated to an English audience by Tyndale, but his ideas were not officially adopted as early as some recent research has suggested. The founding of royal authority on the Decalogue, and thus on the ‘word of God’, was a particularly attractive feature of this doctrine, which became almost the defining feature of Henrician religion. Rival tendencies within the Church of England sought to exploit it in the pursuit of their particular agendas. Reformers strove to preserve its connections with the broader framework of Lutheran theology, with the emphasis on faith alone and the ‘word of God’, while conservatives strove to relocate it within an essentially monastic tradition of obedience, with an emphasis on good works, ceremonies, and charity. The most significant achievement was that of the Reformers, who established and played upon an equivocation between the royal supremacy and the ‘word of God’ in order to persuade the king to sanction the publication of the Bible in English as a formidable prop for his new-found dignity.
