Abstract: Basically, Jesus was willing to offer himself to come down to earth to teach the gospel to every human being and was willing to be tortured, crucified, and died to atone for human sins. The purpose of this research is to answer the question: What does God want about His resurrection? How important is the resurrection of Jesus for the lives of believers? What effect will the resurrection of Jesus Christ have on the lives of believers? The answer was: (1) His bodily resurrection and eternity. Everything is possible because Christ, after He rose from the dead, did not die again, in other words, He lives and continues to live. The resurrection of Christ happened a transfer of power, Christ went from being ruled by death to being ruler over death. (2) Without the resurrection, Christian faith is not possible. His disciples are only symbols of defeat and destruction. Without the resurrection, Jesus' position as Messiah and King would be inexplicable. Without the resurrection, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit would leave an inexplicable mystery. Without the resurrection, the source of the disciples' testimony was lost. (3) The impact of the resurrection of Jesus Christ for the lives of believers is that as long as man is in God, whatever he does, all his efforts in God, will receive a reward or reward from God. Abstrak: Pada dasarnya Yesus rela mempersembahkan diri-Nya untuk turun ke bumi guna mengajarkan injil bagi setiap manusia dan rela disiksa, serta disalibkan, dan mati bagi menebus dosa manusia. Tujuan penelitian ini menjawab pertanyaan: Apakah yang Tuhan inginkan tentang kebangkitan-Nya? Bagaimana pentingnya kebangkitan Yesus untuk kehidupan orang percaya? Apa dampak kebangkitan Yesus Kristus bagi kehidupan orang percaya? Jawabnya adalah: (1) Kebangkitan tubuhnya dan berlanjut dalam kekekalan. Semuanya dapat terjadi karena Kristus, sesudah Ia bangkit dari antara orang mati, tidak mati lagi, dengan kata lain, Ia hidup dan terus hidup. Kebangkitan Kristus terjadi peralihan kekuasaan, Kristus beralih dari dikuasai oleh maut menjadi penguasa atas maut. (2) Tanpa kebangkitan, iman Kristen tidak mungkin muncul. Murid-murid-Nya hanyalah simbol kekalahan dan kehancuran. Tanpa kebangkitan, posisi Yesus sebagai Mesias dan Raja tidak akan terjelaskan.  Tanpa kebangkitan, pencurahan Roh Kudus akan meninggalkan misteri yang tidak dapat dijelaskan. Tanpa kebangkitan, sumber kesaksian murid-murid hilang. (3) Dampak kebangkitan Yesus Kristus bagi kehidupan orang percaya adalah  selama manusia ada di dalam Tuhan, apapun yang ia kerjakan, semua jerih payahnya dalam Tuhan, akan mendapat balasan atau upah dari Tuhan.

Basic Beliefs

The death of a child is one of the most stressful events that a parent can experience. For a bereaved parent, the child's death represents an experience that involves separation and loss, feelings of failure and guilt, and an undermining of basic beliefs. Yet, for the Christian, it is suggested that five important sources of comfort are available to the bereaved parent: (a) faith in a good and powerful God, (b) knowledge of God's Word, (c) relationship with Jesus Christ, (d) an indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and (e) a fellowship of believers. Through these sources of comfort, a bereaved parent can profit by the Christian faith, although some potential risks in implementing the faith are present.

A homily on discernment of faith in a chord of three. This article reflects on discernment as a key Christian faith practice of the believing community that wants to live according to its vision and mission as articulated in 1 Peter 2:21: To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps. This homily is presented as a chord consisting of three notes that entices the readers to contribute their own harmonies – to witness to their own contexts of tension between true and false prophecy, to choose for God’s presence in Jesus Christ and to perservere as followers of Jesus amid the coldness and cruelty of this world. These disciples choose Jesus in spite of the chaos in their own lives and in their world. A similar choice was made by one of the criminals on the cross alongside Jesus (Lk 23:42). The three notes that make up the chord are: discernment on the basis of the Bible with the guidance of the Holy Spirit in order to distinguish the will of God for the road ahead.

The intellectual struggles and adventures of Christian thinkers in Alexandria in the first centuries produced an overarching effect to the doctrines of Christian faith, which survived to the present day. One of those doctrines is the doctrine of the Trinity. The study of the thought of Athanasius of Alexandria in regards of God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, through his works such as Contra Gentes-De Incarnatione, Contra Arianos I-III, and Epistola ad Serapionem, speaks for itself the contribution he made to solidify the doctrine of the Trinity. For him, the doctrine expresses the eternal communion among the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, which in effect brings benefi t to us. The construction of the doctrine is inseparable from the Church tradition which owed to the ecclesiastical biblical exegesis, and the construction of the theological methods, and the soteriological perspective.

Acts 2

Abstract The Pentecostal events that took place in the Acts 2, are believed to be the fulfillment of the prophecy of the prophet Joel (Joel 2: 28-32); at least, that is the Pentecostals’ perspective today. The problem that arises is that often the outpouring of the Holy Spirit is not seen as a precursor of change or transformation whether it is individual or ecclesiological (liturgical worship). People tend to ignore the contribution of Holy Spirit in the life of believers. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is indeed a very important event, but Pentecost is what drives the apostles to be witnesses of Christ. In this paper, we try to describe the impact of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2: 1-4 in two aspects namely the narrow (personal) aspect, and broad (ecclesiological) aspect. In a narrow aspect, Pentecost changes the lives of believers as empowerment for mission and the starting point for changing the character of believers in a positive direction. In a broad aspect, it turns out that the outpouring of the Holy Spirit also brought changes to the liturgy of the great worship that is seen today at Pentecostal vs. worship. non-Pentakota. Researchers argue, the striking difference is because the Pentecostals' response to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit itself is very accommodating and responsive. Pentecost worship is a worship that is sensitive to the empowerment of the Holy Spirit manifested in spiritual gifts. These spiritual gifts have a significant impact on communal growth.   Keywords: pentecost; transformation; ecclesiology; pneumatology; holy spirit   Abstrak Peristiwa Pentakosta yang terjadi di Kisah Para Rasul pasal yang ke-2, diyakini sebagai penggenapan nubuatan nabi Yoel (Yl. 2:28-32); setidaknya, itulah perspektif kaum Pentakosta sekarang ini. Permasalahan yang timbul adalah seringkali pencurahan Roh Kudus tidak dipandang sebagai sebuah prekursor atas perubahan atau transformasi baik itu bersifat individu maupun secara eklesiologi (liturgi ibadah). Pemahaman yang terlalu kritosentris cenderung mengabaikan sumbangsih pneumatologis di dalam kehidupan orang percaya. Kebangkitan Yesus Kristus memang peristiwa yang sangat penting, tetapi Pentakosta yang mendorong para rasul menjadi saksi Kristus. Di tulisan ini, peneliti berusaha menggambarkan dampak pencurahan Roh Kudus di dalam Kisah Para Rasul 2:1-4 di dalam dua aspek yaitu aspek yang sempit (pribadi), dan aspek yang luas (eklesiologi). Dalam aspek sempit, Pentakosta mengubahkan kehidupan orang percaya sebagai pemberdayaan untuk misi serta titik tolak perubahan karakter orang percaya ke arah yang positif. Dalam aspek luas, ternyata pencurahan Roh Kudus juga membawa perubahan pada liturgi ibadah raya yang sebagaimana dilihat sekarang ini di ibadah Pentakosta vs. non-Pentaksota. Peneliti berargumen, perbedaan mencolok adalah karena respons umat Pentakosta terhadap peristiwa pencurahan Roh Kudus sendiri yang sangat akomodatif dan responsif. Ibadah Pentakosta merupakan sebuah ibadah yang peka terhadap pemberdayaan Roh Kudus yang termanifestasi dalam karunia-karunia roh. Karunia roh tersebut memiliki dampak yang signifikan terhadap pertumbuhan komunal.   Kata Kunci: pentakosta; transformasi; eklesiologi; pneumatologi; roh kudus

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 Holy Spirit and preaching in the service The question investigated in this article is how the Holy Spirit is present and active in the action of preaching, and what the result of this is. The Spirit edifies the message and establishes certainty within the preachers that the Spirit will create the right audience for the words of the message. Christ as the centre of preaching is accepted and obeyed by the congregation in its meeting with the Lord. Preaching should transfer the lines in the text via the content of Scripture to the human being of today. The congregation should apply the sermon to their concrete life situation through the exercising of the gift of prophecy. Preach- ing and prayer stands in a causal relationship to Scripture reading, because Scripture reading elicits preaching and prayer. Preaching as testimony elicits prayer as worship, and the prayer in turn elicits testimony. This causal and interactive relationship is living and powerful through the dynamic work of God the Holy Spirit, who effects communion between God and the congregation in Jesus Christ through these events.

The study attempted an explanation of what revival of religion is and how revival erupts amongst the Evangelical–Pentecostal movements whiles not leaving behind the challenges associated with the breaking forth of revivals. This qualitative study was guided by the interpretive paradigm and the sampling strategy was homogeneous sampling. The findings are that revivals conjointly originate from the Holy Spirit, through a prepared person. Both the prepared person and the Holy Spirit are requirements for revival to come to pass. Throughout history, revival has occurred with its resultant challenges such as theological incoherence, abuse of gifts, loss of ecclesial identity and distinctiveness. It is being recommended that, revivals should be managed to promote the Christian faith in the long-run. The study has contributed to the literature on revivals by answering the academic argument of whether a revival is a surprising work of God or otherwise.

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.

AbstractNo one can be justified before God for doing good deeds. No matter how good a man is, if he does not believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, he will not be saved from the wrath of God to come. There is no human being who is right before God, and no sinful man can save himself in any way. The only way out is in the way that God has given to the problem of all sinners, by sending Jesus Christ to the world to die for sinners. "And for this he came, so that every man believed in him, who was sent by God" (John 6:29). The Bible teaches that salvation is only obtained because of faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the object of that faith. This salvation is known as the statement "Justified by faith. Paul explained this teaching in each of his writings. This teaching of justification by faith has been repeatedly denied by some people who disagree with Paul's opinion. The history of the church from the early centuries to the present has proven the variety of understandings that have emerged from this teaching, but one important thing is that sinful humans are justified by their faith in Jesus Christ before God.Keywords: Paul;history; justified by faith.AbstrakTidak ada seorang pun yang dapat dibenarkan di hadapan Allah karena telah melakukan perbuatan baik. Sebaik apa pun manusia, jika dia tidak percaya kepada Yesus Kristus, Anak Allah maka ia tidak akan selamat dari murka Allah yang akan datang. Tidak ada seorang pun manusia yang benar di hadapan Allah, dan tidak ada seorang manusia berdosa yang dapat menyelematkan dirinya sendiri dengan cara apa pun. Satu-satunya jalan keluar adalah dengan cara yang Allah telah berikan untuk masalah semua orang berdosa, yaitu dengan mengutus Yesus Kristus ke dunia untuk mati bagi orang berdosa. “Dan untuk itulah Dia datang, yaitu supaya setiap orang percaya kepada Dia, yang telah diutus oleh Allah” (Yohanes 6:29). Alkitab mengajarkan bahwa keselamatan hanya diperoleh karena iman kepada Yesus Kristus. Yesus Kristus adalah obyek iman tersebut. Keselamatan ini dikenal dengan pernyataan “Dibenarkan karena iman. Paulus menjelaskan ajaran ini dalam setiap tulisannya. Ajaran pembenaran oleh iman ini telah berulang kali disangkal oleh beberap orang yang tidak setuju dengan pendapat Paulus. Sejarah gereja mulai dari abad permulaan sampai pada masa sekarang ini telah membuktikan beragamnya pemahaman yang muncul terhadap ajaran ini, namun satu hal yang terpenting adalah bahwa manusia berdosa dibenarkan oleh iman mereka kepada Yesus Kristus di hadapan Allah.Kata Kunci: Paulus; sejarah; iman; dibenarkan oleh iman.
