War and Military Service in the Holy Scripture

Резюме

Grozdan Stoevsky, War and Military Service in the Holy Scripture. What is the origin of war as a social phenomenon? What is God’s way of preventing the evil of war? What should we say about the Sixth Command-ment, “Do not kill”? Should a Christian serve in the armed forces and participate in combat? This paper does not claim to provide exhaustive answers to each of these questions but aims to provoke interest and challenge the thinking of the theologically informed reader.
