Most basic Christian moral standards are questioned today. Christian morality has always been challenged and rejected by many unbelievers. But today, even many believers have lost their moral footing. Moreover, even believers who want to live ethically are frequently perplexed by the complexities of modern ethical decisions. Without a doubt, most Christians need guidance in understanding how to make biblical choices in the modern world. Not surprisingly, the guidance that Christians need can be found in the Bible. With a proper study of the Bible's own system of ethics, Christians can learn how to evaluate problems in the modern world in order to arrive at biblical solutions.
