The Ultimate Imperative

An Interpretation of Christian Ethics

Ronald H. Stone

What is the center of Christian ethics? The Ultimate Imperative reclaims the love ethic as expressed in principles from the Ten Commandments and Jesus. Ronald Stone sets this ethic in tension with more recent theological insights and church pronouncements in order to explore personal and social issues—race relations, economics, politics, ecology, and peacemaking.

Stone writes out of a lived ethic. He has been active in civil rights demonstrations, was imprisoned for church actions regarding Nelson Mandela's sentencing and the Vietnam War, and served as a chair of a public safety committee and as president of an economic development corporation.

RONALD H. STONE is the John Witherspoon Professor of Christian Ethics at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. His previous books include Professor Reinhold Niebuhr: A Mentor to the Twentieth Century and Christian Realism and Peacemaking: Issues in U.S. Foreign Policy.
