In the face of the present reality where there is a disparity between once claim of faith and conduct of life, the book analyzes and describes the inalienable relationship between ethics and Christology. Jesus is understood as the actual and perfect manifestation of the moral likeness of God, the Father. Every ethical imploration is directed and revolved around the person, role, authority and mission of Jesus. The book propounds that the thrust of the ethical injunction in John’s Gospel is to escort people to believe in Jesus, who is introduced as the logos incarnated in the person of Jesus (Jn. 1:14) for a reason to make the world and its inhabitants to understand and accept him as the Christ, the Son of God and the Son of Man who grants life eternal, the highest and ultimate goal according to the Gospel of John (3:16; 20:31). A response to the call to believe in Jesus results in living in the light, doing good, aligning one’s purpose of life in the will of God. Discipleship is considered as the immediate moral context. Ethics in John’s Gospel is the ethics of faith and love combined which results from believing and keeping the commandments of Jesus and resulting to “doing the works of God.” Johannine ethics stems from the moral world of God, revealed in and through the life and ministry of Jesus, received by faith by community of believers and in the physical absence of Jesus the Spirit-Paraclete takes over to guide and enable the community of believers in all the truth to live its faith in action.
