Abstract:

ABSTRACTThis article examines Augustine's doctrine of the totus Christus, “the whole Christ” with Christ as Head and the Church as Body. It considers the new identity as Christ that Christians receive in the sacraments of initiation that unite individuals in the Church community, and the sacramental presence of the Church in the world as one of unifying love. This new identity forms the Church for mission as it joins Christ in a mission of love that unites people to one another as it unites them to God. The Church joins Christ in standing in solidarity with those in need, thus radiating Christ

Abstract:

AbstractThis article proposes looking to Kathryn Tanner and John Howard Yoder as resources for moving beyond a stalemate in recent ecclesiology which locates competing centres of gravity in either church or world. By contrast, Tanner and Yoder locate that centre outside of both church and world: in God, who ‘was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself . . . and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation’ (2 Cor 5:19). Accordingly, they articulate a vision of the church in the world whose posture is wholly, and constitutively, undefensive: a community free of the violence – actual, rhet

Abstract:

We live in a digital era, where connection and connectivity move away from physical presence, but find shape in online communities and forums. This trend extends from the secular world into the religious experience, as can be seen from examples such as E-kerk (E-Church). The body is a vehicle through which Paul defines the church and the medium through which Christians live a new life in Christ. Virtual communities, however, lack bodily presence and thus the tactile experience of the Lord’s Supper and the communal aspects of baptism. This raises the question whether it is possible for an indiv

Abstract:

Taking into consideration both of the statements of the Catholic magisterium and the pastoral environment of Catholic institutions, this essay offers some observations on the roots and objectives of interreligious dialogue. Framing dialogue in the faith experience of Christ as Lord allows the dialogue of life to emerge as a living expression of the way of life of every faithful Catholic. To live in Christ is the essence of being the Church. The mission of the Church is to proclaim the saving work and living presence of Christ. Christian spirituality is an intentional search for the fullness of

Abstract:

AbstractThis essay argues that the faithfulness of the church in a world with so many vulnerabilities entails that she acknowledges her own vulnerability and frailty. This ecclesial vulnerability is based in the vulnerability of the triune God to whom she witnesses, as well as in the vulnerability of human beings. On the basis of this trinitarian and anthropological vulnerability, suggestions are made regarding the nature, attitude, and public calling of the church. As witnesses and disciples of Jesus Christ, the church has a threefold presence in public life; namely, to be vulnerable prophets

Abstract:

The Industrial Revolution 4.0 changed the work system, mindset and face of the world. In an era that is no longer the same, digital technology is growing rapidly. This change presents a new challenge for the Catholic Church in its existence in the midst of the world. The Church recognizes this change and seeks to use technological advances as a means of proclaiming God's love. In this case, the Church tries to invite Catholic laity to rise up and answer the call of Christ. The laity are the ones who are called.

In Christianity, incarnation marks the culmination of the manifestation of God’s love in the world. Through the historical presence of Jesus Christ in the world, salvation is made possible.

The Christian doctrine of incarnation gives hope to those who are in the situation of oppression, suffering, and injustice.

When Jesus Christ said, “they (the Church) are being in the world, …..they (the Church) are being for the world (John 17:11b; 16b), He was referring to the complete substance of the Church.

Therefore, it is important that the process of evangelization takes place not only in a traditional way in the real world, but also that the Gospel is present in the digital world.

The early church, or the church during the time of the apostles, was a church that grew in quantity and quality. Even though in general the environment around it was hostile towards its presence, this situation did not in any way reduce or hinder the growth that occurred in it. The church carries out its service duties in the concrete world against the backdrop of a dynamic life context. In this regard, the church is required to proactively understand and guide members of the congregation to live a life of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ correctly in the struggles of everyday life.

The Church of Laodicea was described by Christ as a congregation that was neither hot nor cold, lukewarm, and arrogant because of its riches. Even though they are rich materially, they experience inconsistent faith and spiritual poverty, and are less aware of their need for God. Christ threatened to vomit them out if they persisted in this way of life. In today's materialistic world, it is easy for congregations to ignore spiritual needs. This brings problems to the growth of the congregation's faith. The research method uses biblical interpretation within the framework of verse-by-verse exege

The sacramental ordinances are determined by ecclesiastical law which follows the nature and life of the Church. The ordinances of the Church, through the visible, direct us to the invisible.

As one of the largest Pentecostal church in Indonesia and even further, as a Holy Spirit-centered church, GBI has not yet given a ‘room’ for Holy Spirit to unite the church with Christ through holy communion. In general, the holy communion practice is done as a memorial act upon His crucifixion that not only save the world, but also able to heal physical ailments. This study is using literature study to explore some material sources

Abstract: This research examines the changing landscape of Christian life. Today, Christians are at a crossroads where one path offers comfort, a world sheltered from the tumultuous secular world's complexities. The other path invites Christians to engage in the secular world, transcend selfishness, and face its challenges in the public arena. This research aims to strengthen the Church's understanding of divine calling and purpose in secular society. This research uses a qualitative descriptive methodology investigation to explore the theological work of Johann Baptist Metz. This research sta

O mundo atual, com seus desafios, requer da Igreja uma postura de abertura e atualização constante para que ela possa corresponder aos anseios e às necessidades do ser humano em crise. A Igreja só será um sinal de esperança na medida em que buscar resplandecer a luz de Cristo.

Christian integrity faces the challenges of church life in social and ecclesial spaces; both reflect one standard. Presence in social spaces, especially in the digital world, presents a dramaturgical lifestyle or, like, playing a role so that it tends to be manipulative. This article aims to build a theological concept of Christian integrity reflected through church life in ecclesial and social spaces. Using a literature study approach, through published research articles, we find that church life must always display the same face of Christ in all spaces or dimensions of life. This means that

‘Antichrist’, wrote William Tyndale in 1528, ‘is not an outward thyng, that is to say a man that should sode[n]ly appeare with wonders as our fathers talked of him.

And this is as much to say as agaynst Christ, ye one that preacheth against Christ.’ Such a definition of Antichrist marked a departure from the traditional medieval legend, which was based upon the prophecy of a single future figure of evil. This new image of Antichrist as a permanent and spiritual presence in the world is a central feature of English Protestant polemic, informing

While Bonhoeffer's legacy has been contested, especially in German theology, and his theological influence has declined, we continue to be fascinated by him as a person. Bonhoeffer's life and death is a paradigm of the right relationship between faith and practice, i.e. of discipleship. This can be linked to developments in biblical hermeneutics that stress the original context of the text and the need for a response by the reader to bring out its relevance. Bonhoeffer's

Abstract:

A key word that is very important and often used in the sphere of Church life is the word 'ministry'. This word has a very deep meaning, not only because the word 'ministry' has its roots in and is rooted in Jesus Christ, whose whole life fully qualifies the meaning of service. But also by realizing that by and through the word 'ministry', the Church has emerged as a unique, unique and specific institution, which cannot be found in common with any other institution that has come together in the middle of history. In other words, the terminology of ministry has a close affinity for the church,

Abstract:

The idea of flourishing life has become one of the most important concepts in theological discourse, understanding human flourishing as at the heart of the Christian gospel. This literature and document-based research links the concept of flourishing life with the missio Dei and presents it as a contextually relevant theological interpretation of the missio Dei. The Church’s participation in God’s mission includes contributing towards flourishing life, and it concludes that such participation is of particular importance to ecclesiology. Missional ecclesiology is interested in everyday life and

The word is a mighty ruler capable of performing miracles. Proclamation of God’s Word was and still is one of the most important tasks of the Church. The Word of God awakens and deepens faith. The preacher undertakes a responsible task collaborating with God himself. This responsibility goes beyond the limits of worldliness. Reading and studying the Bible is not sufficient. It is essen- tial to join talent and knowledge together with prayer. Therefore, prayer should be the foundation of priest’s spiritual life.

Abstract:

The storm centre of John Wyclif’s quarrel with the Church was his doctrine of the Eucharist. The critic of clerical dominion over secular things and of the authority of the pope had passed through ecclesiastical censure almost unscathed; but the proponent of a revisionist theology of the eucharistic sacrament would at once lose the countenance of academic colleagues and public opinion alike, and would suffer the consequences. The crisis of Wyclif’s career came with striking rapidity after he broadcast, in his Confessio or public statement in the Oxford schools on 10 May 1381, his opinion that

This essay examines the traditional five Solas – sola fide, sola gratia, sola scriptura, solus Christus, and soli Deo gloria – as present in nascent form in the writings of Martin Luther. While the technical terms themselves and their grouping are a later development, the incipient form of each sola is nevertheless evidenced in Luther’s corpus of writing. Having surveyed their presence and inter-relationship in Luther’s thought, the essay argues for the unity of the Solas a
