Article - Is the Bible Relevant for Social Life?: The Bible, Morality and Culture

fancis2.jpg

Is the Bible relevant to socio-cultural and inter-personal issues?   From a social, communal and cultural perspective, all of us can easily agree that our world, our social institutions (in some parts of the world), our communities, and more seriously, our basic relationships such as the family (the home, marriage) are in a deep, almost seeming irreparable crisis.   The disintegration of the family, the home and marriages are a global phenomenon, but seems to be more acute in the Western society.   Would a serious, personal commitment to and practical application of the Bible and the Christian faith have helped in the above cases?    Richardson (1952: 33-77) plays down the socio-ethical significance of the New Testament.  Richardson argues that Christianity does not offer “any patent medicine for the diseases of society”, industry, or economic relations.  He argues that the New Testament has nothing to do with economics, politics and sociology... (cf. Richardson, 1952:35, 44, 49-50).  We argue in the opposite way, that by shaping and effecting transformation in the hearts, minds, attitudes, values and worldviews of people, Christianity (and the Bible) can make a great contribution to our social, communal, cultural and moral life and relationships.   The Bible provides guidance and solutions to questions of social, cultural and communal/inter-personal morality and relationships.  more.gif
