The Formation of Christian Character: A Contribution to Christian Ethics is a book written by William Straton Bruce and published in 1908. The book explores the concept of Christian character and how it is formed through the practice of Christian ethics. Bruce argues that Christian character is not something that is innate or inherited, but rather something that is developed over time through intentional effort and adherence to Christian principles.The book is divided into three parts. The first part examines the nature of Christian character and the factors that contribute to its formation, including the role of the Holy Spirit, the importance of prayer and scripture reading, and the influence of Christian community. The second part focuses on the practical aspects of Christian character formation, including the cultivation of virtues such as love, humility, and self-control, and the avoidance of vices such as pride, envy, and greed. The third part explores the relationship between Christian character and social ethics, including issues such as poverty, justice, and the common good.Throughout the book, Bruce draws on a variety of sources, including scripture, theology, philosophy, and literature, to support his arguments. He also provides numerous examples from the lives of Christian saints and other historical figures to illustrate his points.Overall, The Formation of Christian Character is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the nature of Christian character and the process by which it is formed. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Christian ethics and the development of a strong and virtuous Christian character.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
