FINAL PAPER INSTRUCTIONS

Please provide a detailed presentation which is organized according to the following format:

PART I- Provide a brief Introductory Summary (Must include a clear Thesis Statement).

PART II- Identify key absolutes critical for healthy, biblical decision making. (Although this content may be subjective in nature because it represents your personal opinions, please DO NOT reference yourself in this section). Please be sure to provide clear, biblical support for your rationale.

This process must include a minimum of 4 steps and no more than 10 steps.

PART IV- Identify a decision making strategy one could employ when a clear answer/solution is NOT biblically evident by commandment, guideline or inference.

PART V- If you were compelled by a directive (e.g. by an employer, government official, etc.) that was not in accordance with YOUR “absolutes”, describe what action(s) YOU are prepared to implement to uphold your personal absolutes. (This is the only section of the paper which should include any personal references.)

BIBLIOGRAPHY – Please note that you must have at least THREE supplementary sources (in addition to the text and the Bible) that are used in the development and presentation of your paper.
