Overview

"How can Christians love their neighbors and their enemies at the same time? What if the enemies are terrorists and tyrants, and the neighbors include the people they terrorize or tyrannize? Can governments be terrorists? Or only individuals? Is there a Golden Rule for nations? These are among the many urgent questions addressed in Loving Without Giving In. Stopping terrorists and bringing down tyrants is a God-given duty for those called to love their neighbors all over the world. Yet fighting violence with violence is counterproductive in the long run and incompatible with loving enemies in the short run. This book draws from Scripture-including its contributions to views of holy war and just war as well as pacifism-plus the best thinking of peace scholars to analyze the global situation post-9-11. Mock also analyzes four aspects of spiritual deformation which terrorists, and to some extent, tyrants go through: corrosive grievance, dehumanizing hatred, political despair, and belief in the myth of effective violence. Each spiritual disease calls for loving responses from Christians. Despite the seeming difficulty, and the primitive state of Christians' ministry in international conflict, Mock identifies over 100 promising practical steps Christians can take to love their enemies and their neighbors without giving in to terror or tyranny."
