Exploring the essence of Christianity, Tolstoy argues that nonviolence is foundational to the faith, emphasizing Christ's teachings on peace and love. He contrasts the Sermon on the Mount with modern church doctrines, highlighting a divergence from Christ's message against violence. Through historical examples of non-violent resistance, he critiques governments that wage war, asserting they violate Christian principles. This influential work has inspired leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and remains a significant study on the social and psychological state of the modern world.
