[Originally published by Friends United Press (currently out of print, ebook ony, link/s above, some used print version copies can be found). This is my personal testimony to the change wrought in my life when I began to examine it as I struggled to align my path with that narrow way charted by Scripture. Aside from the obvious teachings of Jesus, there were many surprises in the Old Testament.
This book gives an overview of my journey and those Scriptures that confronted me. For an academic work on Scripture and war, see Dr. Preston Sprinkle’s new book, Fight, published by David C. Cook, and the classic, Yahweh is a Warrior by Mennonite scholar Millard Lind. ]
To believe the promise of Jesus that his followers shall possess the earth, and at the same time to face our enemies unarmed and defenseless, preferring to incur injustice rather than to do wrong ourselves, is indeed a narrow way. – Dietrich Bomhoeffer (The Cost of Discipleship)
Jesus’ kingship is not something that remains in the future. Christ is King right this minute. —R.C. Sproul
