Apart from the
Scriptural evidence that supports the nonviolent and pacifist position, there
is a significant testimony to be found in Church History.

Christian Nonviolence and Pacifism: Some Badly Needed Clarifications (Part 3)
Christ brings division, even among Christians (1 Cor 11)...
the peace we seek, is found only in him. False worldly peace doesn't excuse the
gun-toting, gun-enforced pseudo-peace of either the Right wing militarist or
the Libertarian, nor does a lack of peace in a world of violence grant
permission for Christians to take up the sword. Thousands of pages have been
written attempting to defend the Christian war ethic, just war, 'self-defense'
and a host of other lies and scriptural distortions.
