Human understanding today is always presented with the concept that those who obey and are faithful to God will be blessed and those who do evil will suffer. On the other hand, humans always want to have something obtained instantly. The book of Job struggles with that understanding and attempts to decipher the concept of recompense. Because of the reality of life in this world, humans are always faced with two sides of life, namely difficult and happy. Researchers use qualitative methods with a literature approach (librabry Research) for this paper. Job's struggles, as the book of Job testifies, are evidence of his perseverance in facing everything in life. Contrary to the concept in Israel that obedience and faithfulness bring blessings. The concept of Job in the face of hardship and pleasure is a character that every human or believer must possess. It turns out that the concept of God as the giver of blessings and punishments based on human works was renewed into a God far beyond human thought and wisdom. Man has limitations to experience God's work in this world. Man's tendency to frame God in man's limited thinking makes it difficult for man to understand what God has done. Olh is therefore in chapters 2:1-13 (are we willing to receive good from God, but not bad? Here comes Job's perseverance.)

This study explores the influence of social networking platforms in shaping the digital age and driving societal transformation. It examines how these platforms have revolutionized communication, information sharing, and networking on a global scale. The major finding of this study is that social networking platforms have greatly influenced society by creating new channels of communication, facilitating information-sharing, and fostering online communities. These platforms have enabled individuals to connect with others across distances, share personal experiences, and collaborate on various projects. They have also provided a platform for marginalized groups to voice their opinions and advocate for social change. The study recommends that individuals and organizations should be mindful of the potential risks and challenges associated with social networking platforms. These include issues such as privacy concerns, the spread of misinformation, and the potential for online harassment. It is important for individuals to critically evaluate the information they consume and to actively engage in online conversations that promote constructive dialogue.

This study aims to obtain empirical evidence about the effect of profitability and capital structure moderated by free cash flow on firm value. The research object is a company included in the classification of the raw material industry sector which is listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The variables used as proxies for profitability return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE); the capital structure variable is proxied by the debt to assets ratio (DAR) and the debt to equity ratio (DER), and the firm value is proxied by the price to book value (PBV). While the moderating variable uses free cash flow (FCF). Data analysis used multiple regression with the least squares method, and the sample selection method used purposive sampling. Based on the best model produced in this study, it is proven that free cash flow can significantly strengthen the effect of company profitability proxied by return on assets ROA and return on equity (ROE); the effect of capital structure proxied by DAR on firm value, but not as good as the direct effect of the moderated variables. The study reveals that profitability and capital structure significantly impact firm value, with free cash flow moderated by ROA. However, the model does not outperform direct effects, suggesting improved ROE, DAR management, and effective free cash flow management.
本研究旨在获得有关受自由现金流调节的盈利能力和资本结构对公司价值影响的经验证据。研究对象是一家在印度尼西亚证券交易所上市的原材料行业公司。盈利能力的变量是资产回报率(ROA)和股本回报率(ROE);资本结构变量是债务资产比(DAR)和债务股本比(DER);公司价值是价格账面价值(PBV)。调节变量采用自由现金流(FCF)。数据分析采用最小二乘法进行多元回归,样本选择采用目的抽样法。根据本研究得出的最佳模型,证明自由现金流可以显著加强以资产收益率 ROA 和股本收益率(ROE)为代表的公司盈利能力的影响;以 DAR 为代表的资本结构对公司价值的影响,但不如调节变量的直接影响。研究表明,盈利能力和资本结构对公司价值有显著影响,自由现金流受 ROA 的调节。然而,该模型并没有超越直接效应,表明 ROE、DAR 管理和有效的自由现金流管理得到了改善。

Today's business economic competition encourages companies to maximize the potential of human resources. Ideally, human resources have the capacity, capability, and integrity to maintain resilience in the business world, especially financial companies. However, the reality is that in Semarang City there are still fraud intentions in the form of corruption in employees of one of the banks, which has the potential to reduce company resilience. Job satisfaction is a reflection of workers' attitudes in responding to the work environment, this is related to the level of fraud intentions. This study aims to analyze the effect of job satisfaction on fraud intentions in employees of financial companies in Semarang City. The method used is quantitative-based with data collection techniques in the form of distributing questionnaires to 30 samples. The research data were tested using tests of validity, reliability, normality, linearity, and homoscedasticity. A simple linear regression analysis was performed for the impact of job satisfaction on fraud intensity. The results of this study show that there is a positive influence between job satisfaction and fraud intentions. The suggestion for future research is to extend the research period and take samples from all industries registered in Indonesia in various cities so that the research results can be used as generalizations.

In Indonesia, the Application-Based Taxis (ABT) operators argue that they are not required to undergo periodic testing, unlike in other countries. This research aims to address this issue by conducting a qualitative study using three approaches: regulatory review, comparison of policies from other countries, and in-depth interviews with ABT company officials and 100 drivers. The study found that 41% of drivers refused to follow the regulation, citing financial burdens. The study proposes that ABT vehicles undergo periodical testing for four years, repeated annually, similar to other countries. Random inspections of ABT vehicles on the road are also recommended to increase awareness of vehicle maintenance, with a focus on tire and brake condition. This study aims to improve the roadworthiness of ABT vehicles in Indonesia.

This research explores the structure of parents' social actions regarding the zonation policy for new students' admission at SMKN 1 Rejotangan Tulungagung District. The study focuses on the various structures and meanings of the zonation policy, including the New Family Card (KKB), blessings from the school environment (BLS), Keponakan/Niece and Dulur Dewe/Relatives (KDD), Gandheng Gedek or Gandheng Wall (GG/GT), informal entrustment from special persons in government (TWP), special conversations, and special mandate letters from regional government policy makers. According to Max Weber's theory, parents' social actions include taking action with awareness, ensuring they have something right according to the PPDB policy provisions, using methods and techniques, restricting actions to a predetermined time, selecting and assessing actions, hoping for moral principles when making decisions, and learning about social relations between parents and the PPDB committee.

Temulawak extract was synthesized using temulawak sodium alginate. The nanoparticle formula was obtained by combining the characteristics of temuwak extract and temusawak. The microbeads were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The size of Alg-Curcuma was measured at SEM. The particle size distribution of the sample was analyzed using FTIR spectra. The results showed that the size of the resulting beads is microparticle in size. It was found that the temurawak extract is a good candidate as an anticancer agent. Therefore, there are several recommendations that can be done to optimize the synthesis of the material. The study reported that the recommended parameter is 12.5 kV with a flow rate of 0.1 mL/h (first batch synthesis).
