The intertestamental era was a 400 years period between Old Testament and New Testament when God didn’t say anything to the Israelites. Connected with the promise in the Old Testament that the Lord would send the Messiah who would save his people, would it be difficult fulfilled by the intertestamental era? This article wants to explain the things that happened during the intertestamental era, especially about the fulfillment of the messianic promise. The research method that is used in this article is the qualitative method, by using a literature study with the descriptive analysis approach. The intertestamental era was a period in which God worked to prepare the coming messiah. Some works that God did in the intertestamental era: God made the Israelites repent, God held the remnant of Israelites to be the ancestor of the messiah, God used the Ptolemy dynasty to drive the writing of Septuagint that contained the messianic promise, God used Herod the Great until Herod Antipas to permit the Israelites resided in their land for the sake of the birth and the ministry of the messiah, God used the Hellenization for the spreading of the Gospel to the Greek, moreover God used the Romans in preparing the writing of the books of the New Testament, which contained the news of the messiah. The conclusion, in the intertestamental era, God prepared the coming of the messiah by holding the existence of the Israelites and making them repent, letting the Israelites go back to their land, and preparing the spreading of the news of the messiah in other languages.

Abstract

Abstract: Pastoral counselling is an activity done by a pastor in giving advice, comforting, and strengthening the member of his/ her local church. One of the debateable topic that can or cannot be used in a pastoral counselling is hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy is the application of hypnosis in healing the mental and physical problems (psychosomatic). This article explains whether hypnotherapy can be used or can’t be used in pastoral counselling and the reasons behind. The debates of the usage of hypnotherapy in a pastoral counselling can be solved by explaining hypnotherapy based on psychological concept and based on the Word of God. Based on psychological approach, hypnotherapy does not use a scientific method, because hypnotherapy cannot be tested empirically. In the other side, counselee cannot differentiate between the right memory and fantasy or suggested detail. Besides that, a counsellee cannot feel the attention, love, and empathy from the counsellor. In hypnotherapy, counsellee also has no power in rejecting things that are done by the counsellor, nor the suggestions given by the counsellor. Based on the Word of God, the unconsciousness, which is the basic theory of hypnotherapy is the veil of Sigmund Freud to hide his involvement with occultism, which is contrary to the Word of God. Hypnotherapy also cannot solve the root of human’s problem, which is sin. The problem solving of sin is only can be done by the consciousness from someone of his/ her sin and the need of salvation only in Jesus Christ. In the other part, hyonotherapy cannotbring counsellee to have a Christlikeness changing, because the changing of becoming Christlike is done by the Holy Spirit through the reading, contemplating, and applicating of God’s Word in counsellee’s life
