This research seeks to explore the meaning, practice, and significance of the Rasulan tradition for the local community, which is then examined in the perspective of Christian Religious Education by focusing on theological aspects and values that are in line as a meeting point or separation point that has the potential to conflict with the principles of Christian Religious Education in which it talks about the Christian faith. The findings in this study show that this in-depth understanding of the Rasulan tradition has important implications as well as being an effective bridge for the contextualization of the Gospel and the development of effective and adaptive evangelism strategies to local cultures.
