Christian Ethics; Or, The True Moral Manhood and Life of Duty. A Text-Book for Schools and Colleges Written by D. S. Gregory, this book offers a comprehensive examination of ethics from a Christian perspective. The author delves into the nature of the moral manhood and the principles of living a life of duty. Designed originally as a textbook for schools and colleges, it serves as a guide for understanding human moral obligations from the viewpoint of Christian ethics. The book is divided into theoretical and practical ethics. It begins by exploring the nature of man as a moral agent, investigating the inner workings of conscience, and developing a theory of moral conduct. In its practical aspect, the book applies ethical principles to various aspects of life, including individual behavior, social relations, family dynamics, and duties toward God. D. S. Gregory aims to present ethics as a science, offering logical divisions and clear arrangements of moral truths to help students and readers retain this knowledge for lifelong use. Despite its publication in the 19th century, the book’s core principles on the pursuit of virtue, moral discipline, and the moral law remain relevant for readers interested in Christian philosophy and ethical studies today.
