<![CDATA[In Christianity, there are two conflicting extremes, one emphasizes logic, namely rationalists such as Rene Descartes and Immanuel Kant, and the other extreme emphasizes faith, which is a number of Pentecostal-charismatics. This paper aims to obtain a valid and highly anticipatory understanding, as well as to reveal in-depth meanings that are implicated for Christian faith and logic. Therefore, this research is very relevant and urgent to be researched. The method used in this research is a qualitative research method. The qualitative research method used by the researcher is library research. The results of this study with a number of interpretations carried out, the researchers found a sinergy of faith and logic that the Canaanite woman possessed and demonstrated in Matthew 15:21-28. The faith of the Canaanite woman stated by Jesus is the faith produced by the logic of the Canaanite woman's thinking. Faith and logic should go hand in hand, should not be separated between faith and logic. Faith and logic are like two eyes that must be opened to see life's problems.]]>

<![CDATA[The emergence of several cults that exist as evidence of the difficulty of understanding the concept of Christology as a whole. Therefore, theologians have tried to explain the concept of Christology using a tool, namely the concept of Hypostasis. The concept of the Hypostasis of Jesus is not easy, especially when describing the person of Jesus in terms of his existence as God and man. It is not too easy to understand the concept. Therefore, researchers are trying to find and see the background of concept building and its implementation for believers. From the background description, the following questions emerge: Is the concept of Jesus Hypostasis able to answer the different views on the divinity and humanity of Jesus? How understand the background concept of Jesus' Hypostasis as a theological struggle and its implementation for believers? The research method used is qualitative by applying the theological systematic analysis method. The results of his research show (i) The background of the emergence of heresies that existed at that time encouraged the emergence of the Jesus Hypostasis Concept as an explanatory model for the Christology concept, especially in explaining the divinity and humanity of Jesus; (ii) the concept of Hypostasis as an answer to the unity of nature between God and man in the person of Jesus, without overlapping nature and how it works; (iii) An effort is needed to explain and implement the concept of Hypostasis to believers.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to reveal the impact of house churches and faith growth moderated by leadership in realizing evangelistic missions during the Covid-19 pandemic. This quantitative study uses the Structural Equation Model (SEM) method with Smart PLS software. The population comprises 72 respondents consisting of pastors, teachers, lecturers, evangelists, and business people from various denominations in various regions who worship at home by watching live streaming or building worship involving family members. The results of the research show: house church, faith growth and leadership together affect the evangelism mission by 52.6%, which means there are still 47.4% of other variables that can affect the evangelism mission. Leadership proved unable to strengthen the influence of house churches and faith growth in evangelistic missions during the Covid-19 epidemic. So church leaders need to build a house church practice concept that encourages faith growth that impacts evangelistic missions during the Covid-19 pandemic.]]>

<![CDATA[Generally, the songs for worship at the HKBP church come from the Buku Ende HKBP and Kidung Jemaat. However, a new phenomenon has emerged recently, especially in HKBP churches in urban areas, such as HKBP Pardamean Pematang Siantar, implementing Sunday services with a contemporary spiritual song. The signing has been made as long as possible among Pastors, assemblies, and congregations. Some parties agreed, and others disagreed. On the one hand, HKBP appreciates its repertoire of singing traditions, namely the Ende Book. But on the other hand, the HKBP church cannot avoid listening to contemporary churches in worship. Research on Sunday Evening Worship at HKBP Pardamean in this paper aims to produce constructive recommendations to answer all of that. This research will be conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach allowing the author to provide a broad explanation of using a contemporary spiritual course at HKBP Pardamean Pematang Siantar.]]>

<![CDATA[Leadership is something that everyone should have. Good leadership will bring oneself or others towards the best goals. Not infrequently those who are called leaders actually make their people miserable. Make position as an opportunity to fulfill their heart's desire. Ahab is an example of a leader who does not protect his people, but allows the law to be manipulated for his pleasure. Methods or prevention are needed so that Ahab's form of leadership does not recur. This paper aims to explore Ahab's Leadership in Hannah Arendt's Perspective on the Banality of Evil by using qualitative methods and a library study approach. Through this paper, it can be concluded that Ahab is the perpetrator of the banality of evil because of ideology, shallow thinking and blind obedience. In Hannah Arendt's thought, everyone must think and critically evaluate all things that are inside and outside of human beings.]]>

<![CDATA[This article laid out specifically the portrait of Jesus' solidarity with the poor or marginalized groups who were often socially left out, neglected and even discriminated. This topic was elaborated on, given that human empathy was slowly fading. In portraying Jesus' solidarity, the researchers traced it from the Gospel of Luke because this book paid severe attention to Jesus' solidarity with the poor. The researchers used the exposition and literature approach to outline the topic of this article. The findings of this study suggested that the portrait of Jesus' solidarity for the poor and marginalized people was that He embraced the left out, met their physical and spiritual needs, defended those who were discriminated and helped thoroughly. The act of solidarity shown by Jesus depicted that He shared their burden, felt how they felt, and sensed the suffering of the poor and other marginalized groups. The solidarity that Jesus became the role model for every servant of God, to follow and emulate what He did as God's partner in echoing the kingdom of God.]]>

<![CDATA[Today some young adults decide not to marry. Various reasons were put forward, including fear of being committed to their partner ‒how to interact with their partner's family – not to mention the matter of heredity. These things make young adults experience gamophobia and no longer care about married life. Gamophobia, if not overcome, will result in both physical and psychological disturbances to the young adults themselves. It can even impact the people around him, especially those closest to him. This study used a qualitative method by observing the phenomena experienced by young adults, then the researchers conducted interviews with informants who participated gamophobia. A study analysis was carried out through the literature and then the results were explained descriptively. It was found that a lack of understanding of marriage made young adults avoid it. Pastoral care in the youth community and religious counseling services play an essential role in helping young adults with gamophobia experience a full recovery. It is hoped that through these services, young adults will overcome fear and be ready to enter the marriage ladder. In the end, the church will thrive; and become a witness to the world through the life of its congregation.]]>

<![CDATA[Human culture and its components move dynamically according to the trend of philosophical ideas that drive it. The existence of the church, which is also the subject and object of culture, is also conditioned on it. In the present context, postmodern philosophy and culture pose severe challenges to the church in two categories: it's cultural product components and philosophical ideas. These two issues are the subject of research that the author examines in this article to describe the challenges of postmodern culture and philosophy for the church. The research method used by the author is descriptive qualitative, with the study of primary and secondary data sources using literature studies and phenomenal hermeneutics. The results of this study indicate that postmodern philosophy and culture have seriously impacted the church today. Postmodern philosophical ideas radically reject claims of absolute truth and challenge the nature of language and the principles of traditional Christian hermeneutics. Meanwhile, its cultural products affect the practical application of church services to the lifestyle of God's people, both positively and negatively.]]>
