A meta-ethical theory called the "Divine Command Theory" contends that whether or

not an activity is morally righteous depends on whether or not God has given the
command. This philosophy's core tenet is that morally right and wrong are determined
by God. According to this idea, doing what God tells you to do is right and doing what
He tells you to avoid doing is wrong. It also makes the case for why morality is
something that individuals ought to be concerned about. It explains why morality is a
worry for us as well as the repercussions that will follow if immoral behavior is engaged
in. This theory offers an unbiased intellectual basis for morality, which is one of its
benefits. For those who think there are objective moral truths, the theistic framework fits
with these truths. People must believe in God in order to accept the theory. People who
believe in God have hope for leading moral lives and think that by abiding by his rules
and leading a moral life, God would be appeased by their deeds. God's commands are
independent of human perceptions of right and wrong. His orders are entirely impartial.
Many of God's precepts have been preserved in the majority of very old religions. We
can better understand God and live morally thanks to religious writings. The Divine
Command Theory has a lot of drawbacks and detractors. How will a theorist who
concentrates on this theory know which religion is correct and which one to adhere to
when there are numerous religions and schools of thought, all of which have various
interpretations of God and his word.
The trajectory of Christian thinking leads to the Theory of Natural Law. Three primary
components make up this. First of all, this theory is based on a particular worldview.
According to this, the world is organized logically and has goals and values. There is a
proverb that states that everything in life serves a purpose. Despite not requiring belief
in God, Natural Law asserts that everything has a purpose and that God created people
with a particular plan or goal in mind. It claims that reason can be used to determine this
goal. Therefore, the only thing that is "good" for humans is when our design serves its
intended function.
