Christian Martyrdom and Christian Violence

- On Suffering and Wielding the Sword

av Matthew D. (Professor of Religion and Director of the de Vries Institute for Global Faculty Development Lundberg
Christian Martyrdom and Christian Violence av Matthew D. (Professor of Religion and Director of the de Vries Institute for Global Faculty Development Lundberg
Om Christian Martyrdom and Christian Violence

What is the place-if any-for violence in the Christian life? Christian Martyrdom and Christian Violence: On Suffering and Wielding the Sword explores the tension between Christianity's historic reverence for martyrdom (suffering violence for faith) and Christianity's historical support of a just war ethic (involving the inflicting of violence). While the book considers the possibility that the two are unreconcilable, it also argues that they are ultimately compatible; but their compatibility requires a more humanized portrait of the Christian martyr as well as a stricter approach to the justified use of violence.
