The Kingdom of God Is Within You

The Kingdom of God Is Within You is a novel by the Russian author Leo Tolstoy, (1828-1910). It is regarded as one of the central works of world literature. The title of the book is taken from Luke 17:21. In the book Tolstoy speaks of the principle of nonviolent resistance when confronted by violence, as taught by Jesus Christ. When Christ says to turn the other cheek, Tolstoy asserts that Christ means to abolish violence, even the defensive kind, and to give up revenge. Tolstoy rejects the interpretation of Roman and medieval scholars who attempted to limit its scope.
