The Latest Edition of a Comprehensive, Classic Guide to Christian Ethics
What should we do or not do? Can we be good without God? What is the highest good, the purpose of human existence? These kinds of enduring questions are at the heart of the study of ethics.
This classic textbook, now in its fourth edition, offers a distinct approach to ethics grounded in and structured around God's revelation in Scripture. It provides a thorough overview of biblical ethics that addresses the life of love and wisdom to be lived out by Christians as virtuous individuals, as well as their calling in community, in society, and throughout God's creation.
Paul Copan and Robertson McQuilkin explore a wide range of ethical issues organized around the Ten Commandments and themes springing from them-loving God and loving others.
In this essential resource, Copan and McQuilkin
- lay a foundation by discussing key topics of love, law, sin, and virtue;
- compare ethical alternatives such as relativism, social contract, utilitarianism, and evolutionary ethics;
- examine contemporary issues in light of objective moral truths from Scripture;
- present differing views in areas where Christians often disagree; and
- include recommended reading in each chapter for further study.
An essential textbook for undergraduate and seminary ethics courses, this book is also a valuable guide for pastors and ministry leaders who are navigating complex ethical questions in their ministry.
The authors stay focused on the question of how we are fulfilling God's purposes for our lives-a will that is for our good. This comprehensive study is the ideal place to begin on the journey of living wisely, faithfully, and obediently.
What's New in the Fourth Edition
The fourth edition features an expanded comparison of ethical theories and covers new, timely topics such as deification, church and state, immigration, Old Testament ethical challenges, just war theory, stewardship of creation, gay marriage, gender identity, artificial intelligence, and transhumanism.
