Tillich’s Concept of Natural Law

There has been a small revival of natural law thinking in Protestant churches and theology since 1990. This article poses the question of what kind of ethics the German American theologian, philosopher and ethicist Paul Tillich espoused. More specifically what kind of natural theory did he hold? The methodological and hermeneutical key of the article is based on reading thoroughly from Tillich’s work, e.g. Morality and Beyond; Love, Power and Justice; Morality and Moralism: Towards a Theonomous ethics; Systematic Theology, etc. and quoting these sources extensively in order to avoid misconceptions. In order to answer the aforementioned question, the author presents the main concepts in Tillich’s writings, such as theonomy, the Protestant principle, and proceeds to demonstrate how they are related to the natural law thinking which Tillich stands for. All this will be applied to one of the most common objections to natural law: the naturalistic fallacy and the way Tillich bypasses it. This article also provides a short survey of secondary literature about Tillich and Natural Law.
