The moral argument is a core apologetic to both Christians and Atheists. While the world was at war, C.S. Lewis brought to a radio presentation a presentation of Christianity without the use of direct scripture reference. A fascinating story on how an argument can be created using secular means is presented in Mere Christianity.
Considering morality, Lewis presents an argument that morality has three parts. Within yourself, yourself toward others, and collectively as a society and direction represent the three parts.
If you think you aren’t hurting anyone else with your choices, are you hurting yourself internally? The teaching of the New Testament champions personal improvement and change from your old self. Going so far as to calling our old self evil, calling us to sanctification through internal change. Put aside the old man and renew your mind.
This internal change is what triggers your interaction toward others. Finding like minded people who are also working out their salvation is the purpose of the church, through edification and community.
