With issues of war and peace at the forefront of current events, an informed Christian response is needed. This timely volume answers 104 questions from a just-war perspective, offering thoughtful yet succinct answers. Ranging from the theoretical to the practical, the volume looks at how the just-war perspective relates to the philosopher, historian, statesman, theologian, combatant, and individual—with particular emphases on its historical development and application to contemporary geopolitical challenges. Forgoing ideological extremes, Charles and Demy give much attention to the biblical teaching on the subject as they provide moral guidance. A valuable resource for considering the ethical issues relating to war, Christians will find this book's user-friendly format a helpful starting point for discussion.

Contemporaries and historians have found it difficult to interpret the ambiguous relationship between National Socialism and Christianity. Both the Catholic and Protestant Churches tended to agree with National Socialists in their authoritarianism, their attacks on socialism and communism, and their campaign against the Versailles Treaty; but the doctrinal position of the Churches could not be reconciled with the principle of racism, a foreign policy of unlimited aggressive warfare, or a domestic agenda involving the complete subservience of Church to State. Important sections of the Nazi Party sought the complete extirpation of Christianity and its substitution by a purely racial religion, but considerations of expediency made it impossible for the National Socialist leadership to adopt this radical anti-Christian stance as official policy. The Kulturkampf Newsletters, which have not appeared in English since the 1930s, were produced by German Catholic exiles in France. They scrupulously document the tensions between various strands of Nazi policy, and the nature of the policy eventually adopted: this was to reduce the Churches' influence in all areas of public life through the use of every available means, yet without provoking the difficulties - diplomatic as well as domestic - which an openly declared war of extermination might have caused.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... the future? What would you say to that according to your theory? Prince.--True Christian teaching does not even allow such a stating of the question. The Gospel solution of it is expressed with particular clearness and force in the parable of the husbandmen. The husbandmen imagined that the garden into which they were sent to work for the proprietor was their own property, that everything in the garden was made for them and that their business was only to enjoy themselves in that garden for life, forgetting about the owner and slaying those who reminded them of him and of their obligations to him. Now, nearly all people are like those husbandmen, and live in the foolish assurance that they themselves are masters of their life and that it is given to them for their enjoyment. But this is obviously foolish. Of course if we are sent here, it is at the will of someone and to some end. Now we people, we have decided that we are like mushrooms; we were born and we live only for our own pleasure; it is evident, however, that we are wrong, just as the workman would be wrong who did not carry out his master's will. Now the will of the master is expressed in the teaching of Christ. Only let people carry out this teaching, and the Kingdom of God will be established on earth and people will receive the greatest good accessible to them. Everything lies in this. Seek ye the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, and the rest of things will be added unto you. We seek the rest of things and do not find them, and so far from establishing the Kingdom of God, we destroy it--with our various governments, armies, law courts, universities, manufactories . . . General (aside).--Well, you have set up a machine! Politician (to the Prince).--Have you finished?...

By a leading writer and thinker. How might Christians look on the world differently if they actually believed that God's love is indeed stronger than our fears? In fresh, confessional language, Roth shares his convictions about Christian pacifism, inviting others to consider this approach, all the while humbly admitting the difficulties. In the face of violence, are there any options open to the Christian believer other than the "default" impulse toward patriotic unity and a steely determination to exact "an eye for an eye"? A must-read for anyone concerned about the endless cycles of wars and violence, and the possibility that God's love is stronger than our society's current answers.

Why does the pacifist movement of the first few centuries so quickly become an organization that supports emperors and finds reasons for fighting? ? What leads the Church to formulate just war principles only to abandon them when in pursuit of heretics and infidels? ? What impact did two world wars have on Christian thinking? ? Why have the churches in more recent years and a more secular age apparently taken a more cautious approach to war? These are the sort of questions this absorbing book sets out to answer. It makes a unique and intriguing contribution to the literature published to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the Great War in August 2014.
