by Adin Ballou
'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. Ballou begins by examining the life of Jesus, whom he sees as the ultimate example of non-resistance. 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. Ballou's book is a powerful and challenging call to Christians to live out their faith in a way that is consistent with the teachings of Jesus.Book Details
