The Bible which is the source of Christian teaching has been doubted by saying that the Bible has been falsified and cannot be used as a basis in building Christian teachings, especially regarding the person of Jesus Christ. The gospels which are the primary source of Jesus Christ have been falsified and as such cannot be the basis for finding the real Jesus. Bible truth and reliability, especially the Gospels are questioned. If the Bible is relied upon in building knowledge and faith in Jesus Christ, what are the criteria in determining the reliability of the Bible? The purpose of this study is to find out whether the Bible has reliability that can be used as a standard in building Christian doctrines, especially regarding the person of Jesus Christ. In this study, a study was conducted on aspects of biblical bibliography, internal evidence tests and tests. external. Based on research conducted on the Bible, historical search, Bible data and from external evidence carried out by taking a test of historical truth, the Bible has a deepness in building Christian doctrines, specifically the Gospels have a depth in finding and believing in Jesus Christ stated in the Bible. The reliability of the Bible is proven and thus the person of Jesus Christ exposed by the Bible is true.
In the past, Ephesians committed various sins. Therefore, the apostle Paul was chosen by God to preach the gospel to Ephesus to leave sin according to the teaching, 'It is dark to rise the light.' The phrase 'the dark rises of light' is an attitude that must be taken by god's people, namely those who believe in Jesus Christ, to distinguish their lives from the lives of others who still live in sin. Aim the research to find mean phrase of 'the dark rises of light'. This research uses qualitative methods with a literature and exposition approach to the text of the Bible. From the results of this study, it is hoped that God's people do not tend to sin because sin is a violation of God's law. The conclusion and implication of the results of this study are that the sinful acts committed by a man or God's people, both in hidden places and in the open places violate God's law. God will give eternal punishment to everyone who does not renounce his sin and does not want to live in the miraculous light of Christ. Dahulu orang-orang Efesus melakukan berbagai pelanggaran/dosa. Karena itu, rasul Paulus dipilih Allah agar memberitakan Injil ke Efesus supaya meninggalkan dosa sesuai pengajaran, ‘Habis gelap terbitlah terang.’ Frasa ‘habis gelap terbitlah terang’ merupakan sikap yang harus dilakukan oleh umat Tuhan, yakni yang beriman kepada Yesus Kristus, untuk membedakan kehidupannya dengan kehidupan orang lain yang masih tinggal di dalam dosa. Tujuan penelitian untuk menemukan makna dan pengajaran frasa ‘Habis gelap terbitlah terang.’ Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan kepustakaan dan eksposisi terhadap teks Alkitab. Dari hasil penelitian ini diharapkan umat Tuhan tidak memiliki kecenderungan untuk berbuat dosa karena dosa adalah pelanggaran hukum Tuhan. Konklusi dan implikasi hasil penelitian ini ialah perbuatan dosa yang dilakukan oleh manusia atau umat Tuhan, baik di tempat-tempat tersembunyi maupun di tempat-tempat terbuka adalah melanggar hukum Tuhan. Tuhan akan memberi hukuman kekal kepada setiap orang yang tidak meninggalkan dosanya dan tidak menghendaki untuk hidup di dalam terang Kristus yang ajaib.
