Much of the tract is dedicated to refuting the arguments of his opponents, such as claims that certain passages of the Bible sanction war or that the moral commandments of Christianity can be superseded on a case-to-case basis on utilitarian grounds of \"expediency.\" Dymond's Inquiry was later cited by his fellow Christian pacifist Leo Tolstoy in The Kingdom of God Is Within You, further advancing Dymond's argument that it is the duty of a Christian \"mildly and temperately, yet firmly, to refuse to serve\" in the military.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 166\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 8.27 x 5.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 13, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53752159076659,"sku":"9791043140358","price":40.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/WlxODvmuKd9791043140358_5f62ee72-4651-49d2-917a-f0655e0ffe06.webp?v=1785286242","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/an-inquiry-into-the-accordancy-of-war-with-the-principles-of-christianity-by-jonathan-dymond-paperback-1","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
