'Christian Non-Resistance, In All Its Important Bearings' Summary
Adin Ballou's Christian Non-Resistance is a passionate and eloquent defense of the principle of non-resistance, which he argues is the only true Christian way to live.

He then goes on to argue that non-resistance is not only the most moral and ethical way to live, but also the most effective way to achieve peace and justice.
