Synopsis

This radical new assessment of Christian ethics tackles issues such as these head-on to offer a perspective on the relationship between Christianity and the process of moral decision-making in an increasingly secular world. Numerous influential Christian writers assert that the Bible teachers a very black-and-white approach to morality, leaving little scope for the ethical complexities raised by modern living. However John Elford, through his analysis of th history of Christianity, and a persuasive reading of th scriptures, presents the Christian faith as a system attuned to such uncertainty, and which thus offers a moral framework that is both timeless and dynamic. Applying his theory to today's complex moral issues, Elford's scholarly but accessible argument and thought-provoking conclusions should engage Christian and non-Christian, academic and non-academic readers alike.
