Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Johannes Ude's courage to write You Shall Not Kill under the murderous yoke of Nazi power is biblical. An uncompromising, nonviolent conviction burns up the pages of this modern prophecy. Ude's text survived underground despite his having been exiled from his province and imprisoned twice. His knowledge of war and spiritual torment and his truth-telling about war are portraits of Christ awaiting crucifixion: war is an evil horror; every war is an unjust war; Christians, you must refuse military service! Jesus demands nonviolence, no exceptions--this truth is the heart of Ude's message. Ingrid Leder's translation of Ude's now available spiritual gem is a gift to all English-speaking Christians, who today must heed Ude's cry, through Jesus, to 'put up the sword' or perish.”
