The God of War

The God of War explores a question that has been plaguing Christians for hundreds of years - should followers of Christ participate in wars? Joseph Judson Taylor draws on studies of ancient religions and the Old and New Testaments, and delves deeply into the meaning of words used in the Bible in the context of killing and warfare. First published in 1920, this book still makes an impact on contemporary Christians who are interested in the message of peace contained in the Gospels.
