The Kingdom of God is Within You is a non-fiction book written by the acclaimed Russian author Leo Tolstoy. The book was first published in 1894 and is considered to be one of Tolstoy’s most influential works. In this book, Tolstoy explores the concept of nonviolent resistance and the idea that the kingdom of God exists within every individual. He argues that true Christianity is not about following religious dogma or participating in organized religion, but rather about living a life of nonviolence, compassion, and love for all beings. Tolstoy draws heavily on the teachings of Jesus Christ and other religious figures to make his case for nonviolence and the importance of living a simple, humble life. He also discusses the role of the state and the need for individuals to resist unjust laws and systems, even if it means facing persecution or imprisonment. The Kingdom of God is Within You is a powerful and thought-provoking work that continues to inspire readers today. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion, politics, and social justice.The Christian religion is not a legal system which, being imposed by violence, may transform men’s lives. Christianity is a new and higher conception of life. A new conception of life cannot be imposed on men; it can only be freely assimilated. And it can only be freely assimilated in two ways: one spiritual and internal, the other experimental and external.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
