Jesus' Moral Teaching


Book Description

There is a great deal of confusion about Christian morality today. While all Christians agree about the rightness or wrongness of some actions, they disagree about the morality of others. This greatly weakens the Church and its witness to the world.In this little book, the author re-examines Jesus' teaching with a view to resolving this problem. He begins by outlining Jesus' approach to moral questions and then considers what he taught on specific issues, namely money and possessions, marriage and divorce, and sexual morality. His aim is to present Jesus' teaching as accurately and coherently as possible and to help Christians to know how to live their own lives and to witness more clearly to the world.The author is a scientist, writer, and lay preacher in East Yorkshire. His other books include Making Sense of Romans (Thankful Books), Biblical Light on Contemporary Issues (AJBT), and God and the Universe (AJBT).
