The Christian And The Sword

The book is not a theological tract, but rather like all Anabaptist doctrinal writings is a collection of biblical texts topically arranged to prove the position of the brotherhood with regard to the question at issue. The title of the larger edition, A Beautiful and Pleasant Little Book Concerning the Main Articles of our Faith, is quite colorless; more to the point is the title used in the Chronicle of the Hutterian Brethren: The Five Articles of the Greatest Conflict Between Us and the World.
