This essay outlines the contours for Christian sexual ethics in the context of late modern concept of ‘sexuality’ and the state of affairs in current Western culture. On theological-anthropological grounds the essay distinguishes between sex and eros and proposes a definition of sexuality; basic biblical-theological themes point to a Christological-eschatological approach, including a plea for ascetism and sexual selfdiscipline. The essay then discusses a number of practical-ethical topics, including sexuality in marriage, cohabitation, masturbation, transgenderism and homosexuality.
