This study raises the theme of Theology of Faith Based on Proverbs 3:1–8 in an effort to strengthen the spiritual life of the members of the Indonesian Protestant Christian Church (GKPI) Pandumaan Special Congregation amidst the challenges of the modern era. Proverbs 3:1–8 teaches important theological principles about living a strong faith, living in wisdom, faithfulness, and fearing God. Through qualitative and quantitative approaches, this study found that many church members experience wavering faith due to the influence of secular culture, technological advances, and social pressures. This study interprets Proverbs 3:1–8 as a call to trust God with all our hearts, not to lean on our own understanding, and to live in real loyalty and goodness. Wisdom in this context is understood not only as rational intelligence, but also as the result of total submission to God's will. This study emphasizes that strong faith is the foundation for a healthy and strong spiritual life amidst today's pluralism and spiritual crisis. Thus, faith rooted in the word and wisdom of God becomes a theological solution for church members to remain firm as the light and salt of the world.

This study aims to examine the relevance of Islamic economic thought during the time of the Prophet Muhammad to contemporary economic challenges, such as wealth distribution inequality, ethical crisis, and free market dominance. With a qualitative-descriptive approach through a literature study of classical and contemporary literature, the analysis is carried out based on the maqashid al-shariah framework. The results show that the basic principles of the Prophet's economy, such as the prohibition of usury, distribution justice, protection of property rights, and ethics-based market regulation, remain relevant and applicable in today's global context. Economic instruments such as zakat, infaq and waqf have proven effective as a means of wealth distribution and social security.

The conclusion of this study confirms that the Prophet's economic thought is not only historical and normative, but also has practical and strategic value in formulating an alternative economic system that is more humane, ethical, and sustainable.

The Toba Batak culture has a strong symbolic richness, especially in the traditional rituals of death which are full of theological and social meanings. One of the important symbols in the ceremony is Sijagaron, which literally means "guard" or "escort", and is used as a symbol of final respect to the deceased.

This research examines two major figures of modern Islamic reformism, Muhammad Abduh and Rashid Ridha, and how their thoughts shaped the face of Islamic education in Indonesia. Through qualitative research with a historical-comparative approach, We found that while both men shared a vision of reform, their views on modernity were very different. Abduh tended to be more open in accepting Western progress while still maintaining Islamic values, while Ridha was more cautious and prioritised purifying Islamic teachings from outside influences. These two schools of thought then coloured the journey of Indonesian Islamic organisations such as Muhammadiyah and Persis, which still feel their impact today. This research suggests the need for a synthesis of the two approaches in developing Islamic education that is authentic yet responsive to the challenges of the times.
