Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an examination of the development of Christian ethics from their New Testament origins through to the present day. The author focuses on the way the function of ethics within the Christian tradition has varied according to the prevailing understanding of the relationship between God and humanity. The book begins by exploring the ethical teachings of Jesus, emphasizing the personal nature of his call to discipleship. The author then traces the development of Christian ethics through the Catholic and Protestant Reformations, showing how the Catholic Church's emphasis on external authority led to a legalistic approach to ethics, while the Protestant emphasis on individual conscience and the authority of scripture led to a more personalistic approach. The book concludes by reflecting on the significance of the author's insights on the main subject of the book.
