At a time when Immanuel Kant's deontology was at the center of much ethical discourse in Europe, Harless argued for a uniquely Christian ethic that draws upon Christ's person and work, along with the central Reformation doctrine of justification by faith. This book, perhaps Harless's most influential, is the product of decades of reading and lecturing on the subject. In ASystem of Christian Ethics, Harless discusses ethics from the perspectives of both nature and grace. He explores humanity's natural state, the benefits of salvation in Christ, and Christian virtue. This book includes both an exposition of individual character, and of a properly ordered society.
