Description
On Resistance to Evil by Force is a philosophical treatise written by Ivan Ilyin in 1925, responding to the pacifist ideas of Count Leo Tolstoy. Ilyin defends the Orthodox tradition of physical opposition to evil, arguing that in the face of evil that cannot be contained, a forceful response is not only permissible but also a knightly duty.
Heroic courage, Ilyin asserts, involves not only recognizing this duty but also bearing its heavy moral burden without fear. This guide, originally penned for the Russian White Army, remains relevant today as Christians continue to face evil in various forms. Translated into English for the first time, On Resistance to Evil by Force offers valuable insights into Christian ethics.
