Abstract :
Christian ethics is informed by the Bible's metaphysical underpinning which views God as the ultimate source of all authority. This research looks at Christian ethics from a philosophical perspective, focusing on its assumptions and consequences. It looks at how Christians think about good and wrong, as well as the philosophical implications of moral evil. Using a critico- historical method and evaluative analysis, the research tried to place Christian ethics in the context of consequentialism, deontologism and virtue ethics ideas. Findings reveal that Christian ethics from the context of a virtue ethic promotes moral character development while a deontological ethic emphasizes responsibility. It concludes that Christian ethics will no longer be valid if it gives up its history, meaning and values by adopting secular standards.
