Doctrine of the Christian Life, The: A Theology of Lordship

OUT OF PRINT. New edition available to order here.

The third volume of Frame's Theology of Lordship series, this book focusses on biblical ethics, presenting a method for ethical decision-making, an analysis of biblical ethical teaching focusing on the Ten Commandments and a discussion of the relation of Christ to human culture. 

Discussions range from natural law and conflict of duties to detailed explorations of the Ten Commandments in connection with questions surrounding worship, the Sabbath, church and state, respect for life and truth, sexuality and the relation of Christ to culture.

"John Frame's magnificent work on the Christian life fully endorses the authority of Scripture and practically addresses the need to consider the situations and people involved in ethical decisions."
- Richard L Pratt Jr, President of Third Millennium Ministries

"... Frame shows forth God's commandments as broad and deep, as sweetly adaptable to the varieties of human experience... He sets forth a vision for the Christian life that, in fact, in the details, glorifies the God of glory."?
- David Powlison, CCEF
