This article suggests that different definitions of sociology follow from the different interpretations of its essence. The article points out also that a common flaw of many definitions of sociology is that they omit the intention and purposeof sociological science. Thereby, definitions of sociology by R. Kocharyan and A. Jijyan are presented,which explicitly mention the intentions and purposes of sociology. On the above basis,a preliminary definition of Christian sociology is suggested. Aimed at further elaboration of the subject,the authors consider the position of the Christian church regardingcapitalism and socialism, the problem of free will, and certain aspects of Christian socialism related to the emergence of the social state in developed countries. This brings to a new understanding of the highest goal of the Christian religion –the salvation of the human soul –in the realities of the modern world. Accordingly, a definition of Christian sociology is presented with a detailedexpression of its intention and purpose.
