Book Synopsis The Origins of Christian Morality by : Wayne A. Meeks
Download or read book The Origins of Christian Morality written by Wayne A. Meeks and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the time Christianity became a political and cultural force in the Roman Empire, it had come to embody a new moral vision. This wise and eloquent book describes the formative years--from the crucifixion of Jesus to the end of the second century of the common era--when Christian beliefs and practices shaped their unique moral order. Wayne A. Meeks examines the surviving documents from Christianity's beginnings (some of which became the New Testament) and shows that they are largely concerned with the way converts to the movement should behave. Meeks finds that for these Christians, the formation of morals means the formation of community; the documents are addressed not to individuals but to groups, and they have among their primary aims the maintenance and growth of these groups. Meeks paints a picture of the process of socialization that produced the early forms of Christian morality, discussing many factors that made the Christians feel that they were a single and "chosen" people. He describes, for example, the impact of conversion; the rapid spread of Christian household cult-associations in the cities of the Roman Empire; the language of Christian moral discourse as revealed in letters, testaments, and "moral stories"; the rituals, meetings, and institutionalization of charity; the Christians' feelings about celibacy, sex, and gender roles; and their sense of the end-time and final judgment. In each of these areas Meeks seeks to determine what is distinctive about the Christian viewpoint and what is similar to the moral components of Greco-Roman or Jewish thought.

Book Synopsis History of Christian Ethics by : Chr; Ernst Luthardt
Download or read book History of Christian Ethics written by Chr; Ernst Luthardt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Christian Ethics: History of Christian Ethics Before the Reformation Among the many obligations which contemporary Christendom owes to the German Theology of the Nineteenth Century, not the least of them is due to its earnest revival and methodical cultivation of Christian Ethics as an essential department of theological science. Christianity, as primarily and predominantly a moral religion, has never lost sight of its cardinal bearing on human life, but certain special circumstances connected with the Christian movement itself have contributed to impress on the best theology of our time a more distinctively ethical character and tendency. The ecclesiastical Dogmatics of the Protestant Churches, which so well served their day in maintaining the essential truth of the primitive Christianity, have not kept pace with the general movement of thought, nor even advanced in harmony with the progress of the intellectual and moral revolution from which they sprang. Dogmatic Theology has thus largely fallen into disrepute as an arrested development or a decaying survival; and it has but rarely struck new roots into the vital soil of the latest scientific culture. The rise and progress of an independent Biblical Criticism, and the more scientific methods of reaching the primitive forces and vitality of the early Church, have in consequence determined a new return to the evangelical fountains of life, and have largely superseded and antiquated the elaborate Symbolics of the different Churches.
