Abstract: Cheng Beng is a ritual performed by ethnic Chinese people to pray for their ancestors who have passed away. Since many Chinese descendants have become Christians, the Cheng Beng tradition often becomes a difference of opinion between families who have embraced Christianity and those who are non-Christians. Therefore, this research is intended to provide insight for Christians to be faithful towards their religion and respectful towards their parents who still practice the Cheng Beng tradition. For this reason, research is carried out that focuses on the principles of evangelical theology to address this matter. This study explores practical ways of behaving, so that it can be implemented for all members of the congregation
