Description (Dublin Core)
This article focuses on the history of Christian response to epidemics. Through studying history, the author concluded that most Christians followed the following commandment: do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Rather than fleeing the epidemic, Christians would bring support and care to those in need regardless of religious beliefs. Another commandment that the author applied to this situation was, thou shalt not murder. This commandment not only means the literal act of murder, but the act of endangering others. Therefore, orders set in place by authority to keep others safe should be followed. In this article, the author continues to dive deep into scripture and correlates it to the present circumstances we are seeing today.
