Indeed, this confrontation continued in the ensuing centuries and may be seen clearly in our own day, especially in Western countries, where a multiplicity of cultures and religions are found in most urban areas. In this volume we have a few of the many documents from the early centuries of Christianity that deal with a variety of themes related to morality and ethics. Christians, in their struggle to develop their self-identity, had to confront the religious and ethical teachings of Judaism, classical Greek philosophy, and a host of Greco-Roman religious cults. How are Christians different? In what ways, if any, are they similar? From its inception, Christianity was more than a new philosophical system or a reinterpretation of Judaism. It was a religious movement that demanded that each adherent s life reflect faith in Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah. The earliest Christians lived with this personal faith and trust in Jesus, their risen Lord, and his message of the good news. In addition, they saw themselves as being called into a community of believers with whom they lived and shared their faith and their actions. Their faith and life were permeated with the eschatological belief that God s power was at work in their lives and in all the events of history. The Christian community, the church, was being led by God to the fulfillment of his divine purpose. Moral law came from God and was an integral part of creation itself. Unlike much of Greek philosophy, Christianity looked upon ethics as part of the relationship to God rather than as an independent discipline. As we see in the documents, these beliefs provide a foundation upon which early ethical thought and moral rules were built. ISBN 0800614178 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
