Resources available in logos 4. No debates
If you haven't been welcomed to the Logos Forums, I would extend a cordial and hearty welcome to you now. Indeed!
It's a little difficult to respond to you precisely because I don't quite understand which dimensions of this extremely broad subject you wish to research.
For example, I just conducted a search of my Logos Library for "ethics and war," to narrow the subject down a little more succinctly. The result of my search was incredibly large. I know I'm not being helpful at this point; however if feel you can share a bit more the particulars of your question perhaps one of the many brothers and sisters can be of real help to you! *smile*
Psalm 17:8
Not to mention the various doctrinal statements you could find on the web - a few of which are available through reading lists
You lied ! You said you wouldn't mention them. [;)]
You lied !
Here's my collection on War & Peace, weeded down to a manageable size. Sorry, the links point to Logos resources already owned, not to the product description pages on the Logos website. I didn't have time to change them all.

Rosie, when the light bill is due, do you offer then a book in lieu of cash? [:D]
You are asking a big question. Believers have struggled with this question for a long time. Not so much whether war is ever acceptable but whether it is always acceptable and the parameters which Christians must follow. It would be very helpful for you to be as specific as possible about this question so we can give you the help you need
I am not sure as to what I said to you for you to say I lied, my apologies. I am just looking for resources only. No positions just information only. Again my apologies.
Ceron - When you use internet forums, it is important to take things in context (as is the case with any communication). George was not saying that you lied... He was teasing MJ. If you will go back to his post, you will notice that he copied her post so that others would know who and what he was responding to.
[The joke, by the way, is that she said "not to mention" and then gave a long list.]
Thank you, as you can see I am not very good at this. I will work to become better. Thank you again.
I'm sure the Logos forum population includes bunches of tinkerers from days past when computers were young.
Remember writing screen scans and then macros to automatically participate in forums?
Today, the problem at least at the moment is the Logos forum screen refresh rates are very unpredictable. Not sure why.
Hi Ceron, in case no one else has said so, welcome to the forums... Blessings to you!
Keep Smiling [:)]
Thank you
Hi Ceron,
