Abstract

Liturgi gereja kontemporer menghadapi kecenderungan ritualistik ketika struktur, musik, simbol, dan performa lebih dominan daripada orientasi kepada Allah, partisipasi jemaat, serta pembentukan kehidupan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis teologi Pondok Daud sebagai perspektif untuk merekonstruksi liturgi dari ritualisme menuju perjumpaan dengan Allah yang partisipatif dan transformatif. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif berbasis kajian literatur dengan eksegesis gramatikal terhadap 1 Tawarikh 15–16, Amos 9:11–12, dan Kisah Para Rasul 15:16–17 serta sintesis literatur teologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketiga teks tidak membentuk satu model liturgi yang dapat direplikasi, tetapi menghasilkan prinsip orientasi kepada kehadiran dan karya Allah, keteraturan pelayanan, partisipasi komunitas, restorasi, dan keterbukaan terhadap bangsa-bangsa. Prinsip tersebut membentuk paradigma ritualisme, rekonstruksi teologis, partisipasi, perjumpaan, dan transformasi. Penelitian ini menempatkan teologi Pondok Daud sebagai perspektif evaluatif dan rekonstruktif yang membantu gereja mempertahankan struktur liturgis sekaligus mengarahkannya pada perjumpaan dengan Allah dan transformasi kehidupan jemaat secara nyata.
