Teaching about the Holy Spirit is an important theme in the teaching curriculum for the formation of adult members of the church. Paul's letter to the Ephesians emphasized the importance of living under the leading of the Holy Spirit. The church must carry out the teaching of the Holy Spirit in the formation of the members of the congregation, so that the congregation has a correct understanding. Through a literature study approach related to the study of the Ephesians, it was found that the teaching of the Holy Spirit in Ephesians is the Holy Spirit as a seal, believers are sealed with the Holy Spirit when they believe which signifies that believers belong to God. The Holy Spirit is the guarantee that believers will receive what He has promised. Believers are the abode of the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit indwells believers. The Holy Spirit empowers believers by His Spirit within. Believers should not grieve the Holy Spirit, but believers are commanded to be continually filled with the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit who guides believers in prayer. The Bible study in Ephesians about the Holy Spirit can be a reference for the church to implement a curriculum for teaching about the Holy Spirit for the formation of adult members of the congregation. The teachings of the Bible in the letter of Ephesians are the basis for the importance of teaching the Holy Spirit to adult members of the church.Pengajaran mengenai Roh Kudus merupakan tema penting dalam kurikulum pengajaran bagi pembinaan warga jemaat dewasa di gereja. Surat Paulus kepada jemaat di Efesus menekankan pentingnya hidup dalam pimpinan Roh Kudus. Gereja harus melaksanakan pengajaran mengenai Roh Kudus dalam pembinaan warga jemaat, supaya jemaat memiliki pemahaman yang benar. Melalui pendekatan studi literatur terkait dengan kajian surat Efesus, ditemukan bahwa pengajaran Roh Kudus dalam surat Efesus ialah Roh Kudus sebagai meterai, orang percaya dimeteraikan dengan Roh Kudus sewaktu percaya yang menandakan bahwa orang percaya adalah milik Allah. Roh Kudus menjadi jaminan bahwa orang percaya akan menerima apa yang telah dijanjikan-Nya. Orang percaya adalah tempat kediaman Roh Kudus, karena Roh Kudus yang mendiami orang percaya. Roh Kudus memberi kekuatan kepada orang percaya oleh Roh-Nya di dalam batin. Orang percaya tidak boleh mendukakan Roh Kudus, melainkan orang percaya diperintahkan untuk terus menerus dipenuhi oleh Roh Kudus. Roh Kuduslah yang menuntun orang percaya dalam berdoa. Kajian Alkitab dalam surat Efesus mengenai Roh Kudus dapat menjadi acuan bagi gereja untuk pelaksanaan kurikulum pengajaran tentang Roh Kudus bagi pembinaan warga jemaat dewasa.

Church growth is an important study in church history. The Bible has important principles in church growth, therefore these principles need to be analyzed so that they can contribute to the study of church growth. The Acts of the Apostles is a book that has a history and principles of church growth, therefore the author conducted research on church growth based on Acts 2: 1-47. The author uses a qualitative approach to literature study to find the principles of church growth based on Acts 2: 1-47. The results showed that there were three principles for the growth of the early church. The first principle based on the fourth verse is to depend on the Holy Spirit, the second principle based on verses 14-36, 42 is to preach the Word of God, the third principle based on verses 42-46 is to live in fellowship. For the growth of the church today the church must depend on the power of the Holy Spirit, teaching based on the word of God, and the church lives in fellowship.

Abstract This paper is mainly the product of an international conference on sexuality and scripture that was held in Limuru, Kenya, during the summer of 2013. For almost two-thousand years, Christians have held different views on the role and authority of scripture in the Church. Those differences were made manifest by the participants in this conference. Largely because of their diverse cultural backgrounds, leaders from different parts of the global Christian community continue to use the Bible in the debates over human sexuality in remarkably different ways. This paper identifies the Contextual Bible Study method as a promising hermeneutical tool for finding agreement in the interpretation of scripture among individuals from such diverse backgrounds and from competing theological positions. After reviewing the Contextual Bible Study method and its applicability to the issue of human sexuality, the paper suggests the benefits of leaving behind familiar arguments over those passages of scripture most often cited in these debates in favour of a robust discussion of yet largely unexplored theological arguments.

A catechist can be called a missionary and saint. This call is very appropriate considering their role in the missionary work of the Church. This research will answer two questions: (1) What is the role of catechists in the missionary work of the Church? (2) What is the professional catechism model in the midst of the needs of the world today? This study uses a qualitative method of literature study. Through this paper, it will be explained that in the mission of the Church, the catechist acts as a spokesman for the Christian congregation, a prophet, an educator and a witness. Where as the professional catechists needed are catechists who always present the Holy Spirit as their soul and missionary spirit while equipping themselves with skills and knowledge.
