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.

Abstract

ABSTRAK The purpose of this article is to explain that Job's suffering was not the result of personal sin. Thus the accusations of Job's colleagues about the source of Job's suffering were refuted. The writer takes the descriptive method to discuss this topic in more depth. From this study, the author obtained the fact that the accusations of Job's colleagues about the cause of Job's suffering were based solely on their assumptions, not according to facts. At the end of Job's suffering, God Himself came to Job and reached out to restore Job. Through Job's suffering, God has proven that Satan is a liar because all his tactics to bring Job down were not permitted by God. It seems very clear that the final mouth of his suffering was meant for God to be exalted in Job's life.

Abstract

Abstrak: Praktik Poligami merupakan hal yang biasa dikenal dalam kalangan umum masyarakat seperti kalangan agama Kristen, Islam, Hindu, dan Budha maupun diantara agama-agama lain, poligami merupakan masalah keluarga yang sangat signifikan. Ditinjau dari iman Kristen poligami adalah salah satu masalah yang sangat bertentangan dengan pernikahan sejati. Pernikahan adalah sebuah lembaga keluarga yang diciptakan Tuhan sejak semula, yaitu sebelum manusia jatuh di dalam dosa dimulai pada keluarga pertama yaitu Adam dan Hawa. Jelaslah bahwa dalam ajaran Kristen, poligami merupakan perilaku yang dilarang di dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, khususnya di dalam keluarga. Poligami adalah memiliki istri lebih dari satu. Sementara Alkitab tidak mengajarkan seorang suami memiliki beberapa istri. Allah tidak meghendaki perkawinan lebih dari sati istri (Kejadian 2:24) menyatakan bahwa laki-laki akan bersatu dengan istrinya sehingga keduanya menjadi satu daging. Dalam memperoleh data penulis menggunakan kajian penelitian kepustakaan yaitu menelusuri berbagai literature secara mendalam dan mengalisis data tersebut secara deskriptif untuk megetahui keadaan yang sebenarnya.

Abstract

The fall of man has damaged the intimate relationship between man and God. Despite in the sinfulness, man still bear strong desire (semen religionis) to return to God, but that desire is limited due to the damaged ability. The sin-tainted ability only allows man to know God wholly through God's complete revelation (in general and specific). The purpose of this paper is to review Confucius' ability and efforts to know God through general revelation. The method used is descriptive research with qualitative approach, namely by describing Confucius’ complete understanding about God recorded in the Holy Word (Confucius Analect). This study concludes that Confucius understands God from the attributes of God which is expressed in general revelation in accordance with the maximum function of general revelation. Keywords:
