Perspektif Kharismatik terhadap Tradisi Budaya: Studi Kasus Gereja Zaitun Rasuli Indonesia di Medan

Abstract

Seeing the development of the current era, each stream is getting wider. Even the places of worship are increasing, such as Protestant Christian churches. Almost every region has places of worship even more than one for one belief. Now the Protestant Christian church is getting more advanced, especially the newer one called charismatic, charismatic continuation of Protestant Christianity. This research was conducted using a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. Observations, interviews, documentation and others were carried out. The results of this study reveal the charismatic view of local cultural traditions, which states that local cultural traditions are the result of human creation or human teachings which are not in accordance with the teachings of God's word. Therefore, this study also discusses cultural products that can and cannot be carried out by the charismatic stream and explains the meaning of culture from an anthropological perspective where culture is a system of ideas, actions and results of human practice through learning.
