Abstract

The church is present on earth as an extension of the presence of the kingdom of God among humanity. The church is always present to respond to the conditions and situations of the times in a variety of challenges and temptations. But the church always sided with God's sovereignty and will govern and control everything, including the pandemics experienced by humans on this earth. The Church, currently dealing directly with the Covid-19 pandemic, which has worldwide, and its spread is so massive, and its impact is so wide in various sectors of life. The church was sent to bring the peace of Christ in truth and love. That is why the church responds to the appeal of the Government and health protocols from WHO by carrying out church services at home.

The important and most important thing in conducting worship at home is that the congregation continues to truly worship the Triune God, sing praises to God, pray, and the peak and center is to listen to the word of God through preaching live (live streaming) or in recorded form or in printed form.

Abstract

Abstract: Albert Schweitzer's thoughts were formed from his childhood from home to university, related to his search for the historicity of Jesus in the Bible, theology, and philosophy. This search was formulated with Schweitzer’s fundamental thought that Jesus is a moral teacher, on an equal footing with other moral teachers. This is not entirely true, even though the descriptions of his books refer to the four Gospels and the Pauline epistles. He concentrated only on the humanity of Jesus and did not write an introduction to the divinity of Jesus. The thought that Jesus is a Moral Teacher became the basis of strength for Schweitzer to carry out missionary services in Lambarene, Africa, among people who were suffering and had not received formal education. This paper uses qualitative methods and literature studies with descriptive studies and theological reflection. It is hoped that this writing will be useful for every Christian to know Jesus in His status as the Son of God and man while at the same time encouraging a Bible-based and Christ-centered Christian Religious Education learning process and the formation of godly character to serve fellow human beings. Abstrak: Pemikiran Albert Schweitzer terbentuk sejak kecil dari rumahnya sampai ke perguruan tinggi, berkaitan pencariannya tentang kesejarahan Yesus secara biblika, teologi, dan filosofi. Pencarian itu melahirkan pemikiran mendasar bagi Schweitzer bahwa Yesus adalah Guru Moral, disejajarkan dengan guru moral lainnya. Hal itu tidak sepenuhnya benar, sekalipun uraian dari buku-bukunya merujuk pada empat kitab Injil dan Surat-Surat Paulus. Ia hanya memperhatikan kemanusiaan Yesus dan belum menuliskan pengenalannya akan keilahian Yesus. Pemikiran Yesus adalah Guru Moral menjadi dasar kekuatan bagi Schweitzer melakukan pelayanan misi di Lambarene, Afrika di antara orang-orang yang menderita dan yang belum mendapatkan pendidikan formal. Tulisan ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dan studi Pustaka dengan kajian deskriptif dan refleksi teologis. Tulisan ini diharapkan bermanfaat bagi setiap orang Kristen untuk mengenal Yesus dalam keadaan-Nya sebagai Anak Allah dan manusia, sekaligus mendorong adanya proses pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Kristen yang berbasiskan Alkitab, berpusatkan Kristus, dan pembentukan karakter yang saleh untuk melayani sesama manusia.

Abstract

This paper is expected to provide direction and encouragement for every disciple of Christ to realize the responsibility of carrying out evangelism and transforming culture on this earth. It is important for Disciples of Christ to understand precisely the relationship between Christ and culture, both in evangelism and in transforming culture. Because by being aware of this, a student can properly carry out evangelism to anyone in diverse cultural contexts. Cultural transformation is only possible by Disciples of Christ who have lived in Christ and are aware of their responsibilities here on earth. Cultural diversity and uniqueness will not weaken a disciple of Christ to preach the gospel properly. Instead the condition is a good opportunity to clear the purpose of the disciples of Christ called and sent by God. Because Christ's disciples not only carry out evangelization of all nations and also transform the culture of anyone who is already in His mandate
