Christian Non-Resistance, In All Its Important Bearings

Christian Non-Resistance, In All Its Important Bearings

by Adin Ballou

This book argues that non-resistance, or non-violence, is the superior Christian method. The author, Adin Ballou, believes that Jesus himself practiced non-resistance and that it is the only way to achieve true peace. Ballou examines the Bible and other religious texts to support his argument, and he also discusses the practical implications of non-resistance in everyday life.
