Abstract

The Nazar box at GMIT is not something foreign to the congregation. The box is placed at the front along with other offerings. Nazar is a pledge uttered by a person to God in the truth that must be kept. Nazar has been passed down from generation to generation to children. The purpose of this research is to describe the biblical view of Nazar. The researcher wanted to know the views of the GMIT Luz Fatukoa congregation regarding vows. The relevance of biblical views and vows. Researchers used a phenomenological qualitative method. This investigation was carried out by looking at the facts that occurred in the field. The Luz Fatukoa congregation's results understood more about vows as gratitude, and fewer congregations understood vows as promises to God. This view is not following the Bible because it is in the Bible. Nazar is a word that comes out of the lips and must be done faithfully. Nazar involves man's promise to God that cannot be denied. Researchers found vows that were understood as an expression of gratitude.
