Kind Motive

As has been stated above that humans have a basic motif, which is a biological motif, which is the motive for the survival of humans as organisms. But besides humans as biological organisms, humans are social creatures. Therefore besides humans have a biological motif also has a sociological motives, namely the motive to conduct relations with other people. This motif is developed on the basis of the interaction of individuals in society.

Besides, Kuypers argued that human beings in addition to biological and sociological beings is also a theological beings. Therefore, in addition to motive biological, sociological motives, in humans also found a theological motive, that motive that encourages people to hold a relationship with God.
