If Christians do have a different approach to morality, what is the conent of that approach? How is Christian ethics different from secular ethics? Are there different Christian principles? Where do they come from? Are they universally valid?
Human beings are unfinished creatures. We have conquered an impressive amount of knowledge but need to believe in something we don't yet know. We project ourselves into an uncertain future but we need to believe that the future holds something good for us. We need to love and be loved but are incapable of loving enough to be satisfied.Â
Only God can fulfill our needs to believe, to hope and to love. Only God can help to elevate our virtuous life to a life connected to His. Christian morality is a morality of empowerments: theological virtues, infused human virtues, gifts of the Holy Spirit, charisms and a fruitful life can blossom into the gifted happiness that God created us to enjoy for eternity.
