Truth & Situation Ethics
Pilate once famously asked, “what is truth?” Today, many people ask the same question. Many people deny absolute truth, and instead view truth as a relative concept. One outcome of this view is what is frequently called “situation ethics” – the idea that instead of absolute moral truth, morality and truth can and often are defined by one’s circumstances. In this lesson from the Moral Issues series at Springer Road, David Brown considers one of the oft-cited proof texts of situation ethics advocates–Mathew 12 and the incident of Jesus’ disciples picking grain on the Sabbath. David considers the concept of situation ethics, the Biblical story, and whether or not the passage condones situation ethics or not!
Fornication & Immorality

He provides a Biblical understanding of the topic, clear warnings of the danger, and helpful, biblical guidance Christians can follow to avoid this all-too-common problem.
