A Christian's take on ethics, politics, and even gender roles is very affected by how he uses Natural Law. Is Natural Law one of "two chief sources of ethical knowledge that must be incorporated dialogically into any serious evangelical Christian ethic"? (Alan F. Johnson) Or is it "an abstract and esoteric law known only to an elite," which frees "natural men ...to proclaim their natural ungodly hearts’ desires as law"? (Archie Jones) What is the correct use of natural law? What are the different philosophies of natural law, and how have they been used throughout history? Is natural law a subset of Scriptural law, or an overlapping set? Is Scripture truly sufficient for all ethics? In this booklet, Dr. Kayser covers the history, philosophy, and correct and incorrect uses of natural law, both for general ethics and for political life specifically.
