Now that we’ve introduced Natural Law into our possible options for the explanation of Christian ethics we look at what the chief end of man in Natural Law is. If Natural Law is baked into our nature, how should we go about living and what about making actual choices? Is there only one right way. Here’s a question too – would Natural Law be right if God didn’t exist?

If you were convinced by Virtue Ethics presentation in the last section, here’s a Natural Law response to Virtue Ethics. While admitting there is some overlap between the two views, it does seem that the Natural Law view points out some big holes that Virtue Ethics tends to overlook or has not addressed.

The next two ethic models for our IVP Christian Ethics – 4 Views book in the divine command & prophetic ethics introduction. Here are probably the two most controversial models as they tend to make different types of people angry. While divine command ethics makes non-Christians mad, it is still one of the main popular subscriptions of many Christians as an ethical model. The other, the prophetic ethics model, seems like one from the current day but traces it’s biggest push of popularity in the early 20th century. Join us for a reasonable introduction of both of these models before we delve into each of the four models trying to convince you that they have the correct view.
