What should we do or not do? What attitudes, behavior and qualities
are good? Can we be good without God? What is the highest good, the
purpose of human existence? These are the questions the study of
ethics seeks to answer. Unlike many approaches to ethics, this book
foundationally turns to Scripture, going only as far as Scripture
itself goes. The result is an overview of biblical ethics that not
only addresses the life of love and wisdom to be lived out by
Christians as virtuous individuals, but also as Christians in
community, in society and in a world of God's creation. Key
preliminary considerations of love, law, sin and virtue are given
their due in this thoroughly revised and updated text. The bulk of
the work is then organized around the Ten Commandments and ethical
themes springing from them--loving God (commandments 1-4) and
loving others (commandments 6-10). This new edition includes added
material on ethical alternatives such as relativism, social
contract, utilitarianism and evolutionary ethics the seven deadly
sins as well as the cardinal virtues vs. theological virtues
end-of-life ethics, stem-cell research, animal rights, sexuality,
genetics and technology, and other bioethical issues such as
plastic surgery and surrogate motherhood technology and its
depersonalizing effects as well as helping the poor the church's
engagement in society and how Christians can make a difference in
the media. McQuilkin and Copan stay focused on how we are
fulfilling the purposes of God for our lives--a will that is for
our good and our well-being. This comprehensive study is the place
to begin on the journey of living wisely, faithfully and
obediently.
