Document Summary
Inner formation that the entire christian community goes through and that every christian individual goes through. Your individual relationship with god): there"s an invitation to encounters these realities and it"s countering the bad" things. Kant the categorical imperative (you set any principle so that if you adopt the principle you are ready to make that principle universal for all people). Example of a deontological christian ethic view: love your neighbour because the bible says so: teleology the ends, the results, the consequences. Abolish the death penalty because that will prevent the death of the children of god: character based ethics being, habits, character. Formulating your ethics based on what kind of person you should be. A christian community should do things based on the kind of community that they are suppose to be. God"s mission/vision has to do with creating and recreating these cultures of peace in the world, in spite of all our sin.
