This concise handbook on "ethics" will address many issues that our
culture is struggling with that force people, many times, to make
"tough choices" between "right" and "wrong." Ethical questions are
life questions that people encounter in the process of living and
to which they respond in the reality of their own lives. All
activity implies such a taking of positions. Human activity is
never a merely external relationship to or a manipulation of
objects. Human activities involve a relationship to the reality in
which humans always find themselves, which determines who they are,
and which places them under obligations. The awareness of the inner
responsibility involved in the reality of human life finds
expression in the questions of ethics. Part One of this concise
handbook will address the concept of "Christian ethics" and, will
maintain the position that apart of God's word and His divine law,
we are left to subjectivism and moral relativity. This study will
investigate Utilitarianism, Deontological Ethics, Antinomianism,
Situationism, Generalism, Conflicting Absolutism, and Graded
Absolutism. These ethical options will be explored and examined. In
addition to this, Biblical ethics will attempt to answer these
questions, What is truth? What is biblical morality? What is the
basis of the nature of God's law in relationship to theological
concepts such as Mercy, Justice, Righteousness, and Faithfulness?
In Part Two of this handbook, the author will address the following
ethical issues: Homosexuality, Abortion, Feminism, Capital
Punishment, Death Ethics: Euthanasia, Biomedical Ethics - dealing
with the Medical Implications of Artificial Insemination, and the
issue of Surrogate Mothers. Although by no means an exhaustive
study on the foundation of Christian ethics, and contemporary
ethical issues, this concise handbook is a MUST read for pastors,
church leaders, and followers of Christ who want to be equipped
with "knowledge" so that they are able to more effectively minister
to this current culture facing an on-slot of ethical crises.
