Early Christian Quotes

For what war should we not be fit and eager, even though unequal in numbers, we who are so willing to be slaughtered–if, according to that discipline of ours, it was not more lawful to be slain than to slay?
Tertullian, Church Father
Above all Christians are not allowed to correct by violence sinful wrongdoings.
Clement of Alexandria, Church Father
Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven.

Justin Martyr, Church Father
Do violence to no one, nor accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.
John the Baptist
