Abstract

This theological socio-ethical study intends to highlight the state of social morality of Christians in Alak District, Kupang - East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). The problem that arises is that Christians in Alak tend to become perpetrators of crime in society. This condition is really ironic because Christians are the majority there, so the they can’t be role models for people around. With a qualitative approach it is found that social life of Christians who live in Alak are people who are able to adapt to the surrounding environment, by applying social values ​​that generally apply within Alak community groups, such as tolerance, mutual cooperation, mutual respect, guarding, and so on. Furthermore, when viewed from an ethical theological perspective, it is found that in the midst of a society that lives in harmony, there has been an increase in social crime rates especially in Alak and the majority of perpetrators of social crimes are members of the church. This proves that not a few Christians in Alak experience "moral deficiency." Moral deficiencies / defects are conditions of individuals whose lives are delinquent, often commit crimes, behave asocially, or are anti-social. He does not experience organic deviations in the functioning of his intellect, only his intellect does not function, resulting in a chronic moral freeze.
