- Synopsis
- This volume brings together a collection of work from Africa to consider how New Testament ethics can speak to the philosophical reflections on African environmental issues. In conceptualising the ethics of the New Testament, it outlines the theological bases which the great legacies of Jesus and Paul derived their ethics from. Exploring a broad range of moral concerns, this work identifies unity that underlies ethical teachings. Critiquing secular ethical perspectives such as deontological ethics and utilitarianism, and its insufficiency to address African environmental problems, the work offers a New Testament ethic, which tries to transcend the limitations of secular theories and help Africa from said environmental problems.
