    Christian morality is based on following the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. It involves imitating Jesus' life through faith, which has three dimensions - believing theological doctrines, actively doing good works, and trusting/worshipping God. Christian morality transforms individuals first by affecting their soul, and then their actions. It encompasses one's overall attitude and requires not just good actions but doing so for the right reasons, with holiness and love as its foundation and goal.
