Illocutionary acts, Gospel of Mark, Jesus’ conversationsAbstract
This study aims to identify illocutionary acts in Jesus' conversations with the
people and His disciples in the New Indonesian Translation of the Gospel of
Mark, and to explain the contextual meaning of these illocutionary acts. This
study uses a qualitative approach with a documentation method, where data is
collected through text analysis of the New Indonesian Translation of the Gospel
of Mark. This method was chosen because it is in accordance with the aim of
understanding the illocutionary acts contained in Jesus' conversations, which
are expressed through His words and statements. The results of the study show
that Jesus often uses assertive illocutionary acts in expressing truths about the
Kingdom of God, forgiveness of sins, and moral teachings. These acts can be
found in various parts of the Gospel of Mark, such as statements about
repentance and faith delivered by Jesus to the people (Mark 1:15), as well as
His teachings about humility, sacrifice, and the importance of inner purity. In
Mark’s Gospel, Jesus also uses illocutionary acts to affirm that true greatness
lies in service and sacrifice (Mark 9:35, 10:45), and to teach that worldly values,
such as wealth, can hinder one’s spiritual journey (Mark 10:23-25). These
statements show how Jesus provides a new understanding of holiness,
relationship with God, and the moral principles His followers should uphold.
