Do Christ’s commands in Matthew 5:38 – 48 preclude a follower of Chris resisting injustice with force? Tim Edwards shares that he believes the breadth of scripture does not assume all Christians are to be pacifists.
In this teaching by Larry Nigh we look at the history of military service by Christians from the first century to the present and the “Just War Theory” with Scriptures used to support it. We look at examples of how to actively respond to injustice without the use of violence. We also deal with some “but what about…?” issues. This message is Part 2 of 2.
