Studi Komparatif Terhadap Konsep Ketuhanan Erastus Sabdono Dengan Saksi-Saksi Yehuwa

Abstract

This article discusses a comparative study of the concept of divinity between Erastus Sabdono and Jehovah's Witnesses, focusing on the concept of the oneness of God. Through qualitative methods and literature analysis, this study examines Erastus Sabdono's view that emphasizes God as one undivided person, and positions Jesus as the manifestation of God's will, and the Holy Spirit as divine power. In contrast, the Jehovah's Witnesses teach Jehovah as the one God, Jesus as a created being and the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit as the power of God. This comparison reveals similarities in the emphasis of God's oneness and differences in the understanding of the relationship between God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The theological and practical implications of these views are analyzed to understand their impact on teachings and worship. This article aims to provide an in-depth insight into the differences and similarities in Christian monotheism.
