Abstract

Abstract. The issue of rightness or wrongness and good or bad is a very crucial matter that society contends within contemporary times. Most religions today including Christianity that promote the making of ethical decisions do not at the same time address a variety of ethical problems which their adherents face. Using several ethical underlying principles, this theoretical paper argued that ethics is imperative to Christianity. It concluded that ethics in Christianity is rooted in the love for God and humanity as a whole.


Keywords: Imperativeness, Ethic, Christianity, Perspectives, Praxis.
