Description
Wycliffe Dictionary of Christian Ethics
Editor: Carl F.H. Henry
What are the theological and biblical issues surrounding contemporary concerns such as abortion, gambling, drugs, temptation, euthanasia and even the temper?
How has history dealt with these issues? What, if anything does the Bible have to say This large volume provides extensive background and analysis on over 700 contemporary issues, people and terms. Additional topics include evolution, civil rights, laws in the Old and New Testament, homosexuality, humanism , forgiveness, and more.
“It becomes all to easy for the Christian, knowing the blessings of personal redemption, to concentrate on evangelistic and eternal matters, and to neglect other concerns that bind him to all mankind on thebasis of a common humanity.
“This handbook on ethics provides more than illumination on the Christian life-style. It lays bare the very foundations of the Biblical ethic, expresses its content, indicates its impact upon man and society in the past, expounds its relevance to the problems besetting our own age, and wrestles some of the frontier moral dilemmas of the emerging future.”~Carl F. Henry (from the Foreword)
