Kohabitasi dalam Terang Etika Kristen: Kajian Eksploratif terhadap Implikasi 1 Korintus 6:18-20 bagi Kehidupan Moral Jemaat
Abstract
This paper is designed to exploratively examine the implications of 1 Corinthians 6:8-20 to deal with cohabitation in the light of Christianity. Cohabitation is the phenomenon of living together outside of marriage. The phenomenon of cohabitation also occurs in areas with a majority Christian population. This phenomenon of cohabitation in Christian couples is contrary to Christian ethical values. The church must implement an appropriate strategy to respond to this phenomenon through the value of biblical truth. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 provides an affirmation of the sanctity of the body that must be maintained by every believer. The verse can also prevent Christian couples from deciding to live together outside of marriage. The verse reinforces the value of integrity, morals, and ethics that can be held by Christian couples to honor the commitment and sacredness of marriage. Through a descriptive qualitative approach, the author tries to explore the implications of 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 in response to the phenomenon of cohabitation in the light of Christian ethics. The author asserts that 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 provides a moral, ethical, and integrity reinforcement for Christian couples not to engage in cohabitation.
