The Challenge of the New Age Movement toward Christian Faith is becoming more difficult in early XXI Century, especially in Indonesia which based on Eastern Culture. Eastern culture, with its mystical nuance, is a very fertile field for New Age Movement. With the rapid growth of Charismatic movement, the challenge toward true Gospel is getting worse. On the other hand, Cornelius Van Til built his apologetics for defending Christian Faith from its dilutions. Apologetics is not a tool or an armor to kill others, nor to humiliate other religions or philosophies, but it is meant to bring people to know the True God and be saved. This paper tries to show the significance of Van Til?s approach on apologetics which is Trinitarian in essence toward the influence of New Age Movement in Christian society. The purpose is to let people, especially Christians, know the True Trinitarian God, instead of Eastern mystical or Pantheistic God of the New Age.?

This article sets out what it calls the ‘scholastic dilemma’ about whether God’s relation to the world is necessary or contingent – the former is based on a view of God primarily as intellect and the latter on a view of God primarily as will. In his dictum, Deus legibus solutus est sed non exlex, John Calvin rejects both these positions. The trinitarian basis for this dictum was spelt out more fully by later Calvinistic thinkers, including Abraham Kuyper and Cornelius van Til. Implicitly for Calvin and explicitly for Kuyper and Van Til, the love of the Persons of the Trinity for one another is the basis for God’s covenantal trustworthiness in his dealings with the world. Recognising this trinitarian basis allows us to conceive of God as at once faithful in his dealing with the world, and yet not dependent on the world for his existence. This has profound and far-reaching implications for our understanding of society, including the universal and institutional church and a recognition of the priority of relationships, both theoretically and practically.

This chapter places Catholic teaching on questions of life and death against the background of a Catholic vision of salvation history, emphasizing that Catholics see no necessary opposition between Christian faith and progress in scientific understanding of the creation. The chapter then considers questions concerning abortion, contraception, and techniques for artificial reproduction. The second half of the chapter focuses on questions concerning death. Catholic teaching views human life in this world as finite, and thus sees death as intrinsic to the current human condition. After considering Catholic teaching on euthanasia, the chapter considers Catholic discussion of war, the death penalty, and care for the environment.
