![]() “As truly as sin and guilt, and the troubles, wants, and duties of life are facts, and not mere fictions of the imagination, so truly is Christianity also a fact, for it is deliverance from life’s troubles, and strength for life’s duties.” - Christoph Ernst Luthardt Part of Luthardt’s four-volume Apologetic Lectures series, this compilation of talks explains and defends the ethical ideas of Christianity in contrast to both ancient pagan philosophy and post-Enlightenment secularism. While apologetic in orientation, Luthardt’s talks here also serve as a guide for Christians interested in theological and philosophical ethics. This text covers both personal and social ethics. With regard to personal ethics, Luthardt discusses the nature of sin, regeneration, and the Christian battle against the fallen nature. Within broader social ethics, Luthardt explains the purpose and role of the family, the purpose of the state and the Christian’s duty to it, and the development of Christian culture.
