Broschiertes Buch

War, Peace, and Nonresistance

Beschreibung

A classic statement of a Mennonite peace position in faith and practice, Guy F. Hershberger made a significant contribution to the development of peace theology in the (Old) Mennonite Church. Perhaps the greatest service of this book is to explain clearly the centuries-old doctrine of nonresistance as understood by Mennonites in the mid-1900s. 408 pages.
