"The Kingdom of God Is Within You" / Christianity Not as a Mystic Religion but as a New Theory of Life

A sustained philosophical and ethical argument that authentic Christian teaching demands nonresistance to evil and a rejection of violence. The work surveys historical pacifist currents, critiques church doctrines, scientific rationalizations, and state institutions for distorting moral teachings, and analyzes conscription and war as contradictions of conscience. It insists that moral progress depends primarily on individual conversion and the formation of public opinion rather than on physical force, outlines how widespread acceptance of nonviolence would reshape social and political structures, and concludes with a sober, practical appeal to repent and live according to principles of love and nonviolent conduct.
