Présentation de l'éditeur
To many Christian writers and thinkers at the present time it seems clear that the war in which our nation is involved has been so plainly shown to be not only inevitable but even righteous, that they are compelled by a strong sense of duty to use all their influence in prosecuting it with vigour. Even though they may recognize the presence of a serious moral problem somewhere at the back of it all, they cannot allow any such thought to turn them from the necessary, if distasteful, task of conquering the enemy with all speed. This is the immediate concern of the nation, they say, and of every individual citizen. When it has been accomplished, there will be time enough to turn our attention to the moral perplexities which have been brought to light by the war. To give place to them now may seem a sign of weakness in the hour of danger. This volume is not issued in order to criticize those who hold such a position. That many do so in all sincerity and good faith, and with an ardent desire for the good of humanity, the writers of these essays would readily acknowledge. Nor would they wish to suggest that the last word on this perplexing question has been uttered by them in the following pages.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the reader to consider the role of Christianity in times of conflict. While acknowledging that war can be a choice between evils, the author argues it can also be an opportunity for Christians to demonstrate the power of love and non-violence. The book examines the differences between just and unjust wars and explores the tension between loyalty to nation and loyalty to Christ. The author provides a thoughtful analysis of Jesus's teachings on love and forgiveness, arguing that they are not only ideals but also practical principles that can be applied in even the most difficult situations. Ultimately, this book invites readers to reflect on the nature of Christian obedience and the true meaning of following Christ in a world where conflict is often seen as inevitable. Its insights are a timely reminder of the transformative power of love and the importance of seeking peace even in the midst of war.
