Abstract
The society in a nation has a tool in their hands that can shape the life of a nation, namely education. Education leaders, which include education foundations must make a choice whether to conduct secular or spiritual education. Spiritual education may seem to be limited, in that it must comply with the biblical teachings and biblical principles. Secular education on the other hand allows liberty to include anything that people consider worthy. However, demoralization is connected to secularization of society, and within a matter of time, various ideologies will be introduced in society, causing confusion and ultimately chaos. The current studyevaluates the consequences of secular and spiritual education. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach. The method is primarily library research. The data are views of spirituality, secular education and spiritual education taken from sources which are in literature. Analysis was made based on contrastive analysis in the context of current and future implementations of education. It is concluded that society must revert back to well grounded-spiritual education.
