Abstract

This chapter examines social responsibility in relation to biblical faith and Christian social action in the grace of God that is present through the death of Jesus Christ. It first considers Christian ethics and how it corresponds to God's acts of grace before turning to a discussion of social actions associated with grace. It then explores the biblical concept of social ethic as opposed to community ethic and concludes by arguing that responsibility for the neighbor in the early church extended beyond the Christian community.
