Eternal Values for a Valueless Age - Studies in the Ten Commandments (Paperback)

Eternal Values for a Valueless Age is a survey of the Ten Commandments based on the Christian Ethics course prepared, refined, and taught by the author for more than thirty-five years in Christian high schools. The book begins with a chapter on ethical decision-making that examines various ways in which non-Christians approach matters of morality, critiquing these and comparing them with basic biblical principles. Each of the succeeding chapters focuses on one of the Ten Commandments, beginning with an explanation of the principles on which the commandment is based, then moving on to consider practical questions and controversial issues associated with it. For example, the chapter on the Sixth Commandment discusses a wide variety of life-and-death issues, including capital punishment, war, abortion, and euthanasia. Why study the Ten Commandments? Obeying God's law cannot gain His favor for anyone, but one who loves God wants to do what pleases Him. The book is intended to help readers make wise and godly decisions about a wide range of moral questions. Furthermore, readers should be equipped to defend biblical ethical standards in a world where they are largely rejected, communicating godly principles lovingly and effectively. Eternal Values for a Valueless Age is suitable as a text in Christian high schools as well as for use by home-schoolers or Sunday School teachers.
