In Christian belief, God’s justice system reflects a perilous justice found in justice in the world. To realize justice in the judicial system of God then acting as a judge is Jesus Christ himself and not God the Father. This implies that in the Christian religion, the role of Jesus Christ so great occupy status as God. At the time, there is no higher authority than Jesus Christ. Who is on trial at the time was everyone from the Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu and a number of other religions. The main law laid down by Jesus Christ in human judge both of Christianity and non-Christian religions is love and faith in Jesus. It is obvious, that the pressure point is the Christian perspective of love as the main reference for justice law at the time the judge of mankind. From here it would seem that the Christian belief of Jesus Christ seemed to have authority above God the Father and God the Father not only has the power difference as a symbol or symbolic. That is why the Trinity in Christianity is believed to be monotheism. God is three (God the Father, God’s son and the Holy Spirit), but three in a singularity, which is the highest authority in the justice of God in Jesus Christ monopoly. Unlike the case with the Islamic belief system that God later in the justice system that acts as a single judge. The position of Prophet Muhammad can only apply for intercession, pleading for help to God means that man who sought the intercession was forgiven by God. This means that the role of the Prophet Muhammad is no more only as a servant of God and a very long and may not be equated with God’s position. Syafa’at is not necessary for God to grant it. God may grant or deny the intercession of it.

AbstractExploring the emergence of creedal statements in Christianity about non-time before creation, called precreation rhetorolect, this essay begins with the baptismal creed called the Roman Symbol and its expansion into the Apostles’ Creed. These early creeds contain wisdom, apocalyptic, and priestly rhetorolect, but no precreation rhetorolect. When the twelve statements in the Apostles’ Creed were expanded into the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed, the first three statements added precreation rhetorolect. God the Father Almighty not only creates heaven and earth, but God creates all things visible and invisible. Jesus Christ is not only God’s only Son, our Lord, but the Son is begotten from the Father before all time, Light from Light, and true God from true God. Being of the same substance as the Father, all things were made through the Son before he came down from heaven, the Son was incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and became human. With these creedal additions, a precreation storyline became the context for a lengthy chain of argumentation about belief among fourth century Christian leaders.

The Bible, which is indisputable regarded as the inspired word of God, is written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Man, as an earthen vessel, was used by the Holy Spirit to pen the revelation of God’s truth in Jesus Christ. The Holy Scriptures are “God breathed” words to the Church and are key in interpreting and fulfilling God’s telos for creation. This write-up wishes to emphasize and survey the critical role of the Holy Spirit in the Scriptures. Due to the inspiring role of the Spirit, the word of God is not a dead letter, rather a life-giving word that spills new life into the believer and the Church. Precisely this connection of Spirit and letter marks the Holy Scripture as living and active and conveys the desired transformative dimension for the individual believer and the faith community.

Faith is a gift of God, wrought by the role of the Holy Spirit, which animates and directs all our faculties towards a single goal. Faith is defined as "the foundation of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). faith is the work of the soul by which we perceive the existence and truth of things that are not in front of us, or invisible to the human senses. Christian faith can be interpreted as the belief of people who adhere to Christian teachings. Christian faith needs to be owned by every follower of Jesus because in Christian faith there is a promise of salvation promised by Jesus Christ for his followers. He died on the cross to fulfill the prophecies written in the scriptures. He became a sacrifice to take away the sins of mankind. On the third day after His death He was resurrected to be raptured into Heaven after completing His earthly work. Everyone who has faith in Jesus must entrust his whole life to Him. Christian youth are teenagers who believe and accept the Lord Jesus as Savior. As a good Christian teenager, you must set an example through concrete actions according to your Christian faith. Everything that is done in daily life must reflect the goodness of God. Be a positive and well-behaved person. Understanding Christian faith is education to develop the personality of Christian youth.

‘The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God the Father and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all.’ This is an ancient form of benediction very generally used in the Christian church. I should like to take it up here, asking what is meant by ‘the fellowship of the Holy Spirit’? Does the divine Spirit enter into community with us human beings? Does he admit us into his ‘community’ with the Father and the Son? Why does the benediction not talk about divine sovereignty and absolute human dependence in connection with the Holy Spirit? Why does it so emphatically use the word ‘fellowship’ instead?

The subject of the analysis performed by the author were the names of God in the songs recorded in the “Church Songbook”, by Rev. Jan Siedlecki. It is a relatively large collection of nominations the centre of which contains a collection of the names related to God the Father, successively to the Son of God Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. There are also frequent references to “Lord, Creator, Lamb of God”. The use of a given name depends on Christian dogmas and the prayer purposes of the speech acts.

Christ’s healing of humanity consists, crucially, in forming human beings for loving relationship with himself and others. In this respect, Christ also takes the role of the beautiful beloved. Believers become pilgrims by falling in love with the beautiful Christ by the initiative of the Holy Spirit, who cleanses their eyes to see him as beautiful and enkindles desire in their hearts. By desiring and loving the beautiful Christ, the believer is conformed to him and learns to walk his path. Desiring the beautiful Christ forms a believing community shaped aesthetically and morally for a particular way of life: pilgrimage to the heavenly homeland. Formation is both earthly and eschatological, for so too is the journey and the activity of the pilgrim.

This book examines how the New Testament scriptures might form and foster intellectual humility within Christian communities. It is informed by recent interdisciplinary interest in intellectual humility, and concerned to appreciate the distinctive representations of the virtue offered by the New Testament writers on their own terms. It argues that the intellectual virtue is cast as a particular expression of the broader Christian virtue of humility, which proceeds from the believer’s union with Christ, through which personal identity is reconstituted by the operation of the Holy Spirit. Hence, we speak of ‘virtue’ in ways determined by the acting presence of Jesus Christ, overcoming sin and evil in human lives and in the world. The Christian account of the virtue is framed by this conflict, as believers within the Christian community struggle with natural arrogance and selfishness, and come to share in the mind of Christ. The new identity that emerges creates a fresh openness to truth, as the capacity of the sinful mind to distort truth is exposed and challenged. This affects knowledge and perception, but also volition: for these ancient writers, a humble mind makes good decisions that reflect judgments decisively shaped by the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ. By presenting ‘humility of mind’ as a characteristic of the One who is worshipped—Jesus Christ—the New Testament writers insist that we acknowledge the virtue not just as an admission of human deficiency or limitation, but as a positive affirmation of our rightful place within the divine economy.

AbstractThis paper explores the key characteristics of Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf's mission theology that influenced the early Moravian missional practice. After discussing the early eighteenth century European historical context and the Spirit-renewal of the Herrnhut community, the paper considers Zinzendorf's theology on the death of Christ, the prominent role of the Holy Spirit, and harvesting the "first fruits." These theological distinctives contributed in determining the motivation and message of these pioneer Protestant missionaries. It then takes into account some of the subsequent methods such as working with the marginalized, practicing the love of Christ in cultural humility, and preaching the gospel in the vernacular. The main contributions of the early Moravians to mission were that they brought an understanding that spiritual renewal preceded mission renewal, the atoning death of Christ is central to mission theology, and a Protestant recognition that it had an obligation to do mission. On the other hand, the foremost negative aspects of Moravian mission were their obsession with the physical death of Christ and an ignorance of the broader social issues that at times resulted in a lack of contextualization, religious syncretism, indifference to social justice, and extreme subjectivism.
