| Introduction | [vii] |
| War Inconsistent with the Religion of Jesus Christ | [1] |
| War is Inhuman: |
| I. | Because it hardens the heart and blunts the tender feelings of mankind | [2] |
| II. | War is inhuman, as in its nature and tendency it abuses God’s animal creation | [6] |
| III. | War is inhuman, as it oppresses the poor | [8] |
| IV. | War is inhuman, as it spreads terror and distress among mankind | [12] |
| V. | War is inhuman, as it involves men in fatigue, famine, and all the pains of mutilated bodies | [14] |
| VI. | War is inhuman, as it destroys the youth and cuts off the hope of gray hairs | [16] |
| VII. | War is inhuman, as it multiplies widows and orphans, and clothes the land in mourning | [18] |
| War is Unwise: |
| I. | Because, instead of preventing, it provokes insult and mischief | [23] |
| II. | War is unwise, for instead of diminishing, it increases difficulties | [26] |
| III. | War is unwise, because it destroys property | [28] |
| IV. | War is unwise, as it is dangerous to the liberties of men | [30] |
| V. | War is unwise, as it diminishes the happiness of mankind | [34] |
| VI. | War is unwise, as it does not mend, but injures, the morals of society | [36] |
| VII. | War is unwise, as it is hazarding eternal things for only the chance of defending temporal things | [42] |
| VIII. | War is unwise, as it does not answer the professed end for which it is intended | [44] |
| War is Criminal: |
| I. | Going to war is not keeping from the appearance of evil, but is running into temptation | [47] |
| II. | War is criminal, as it naturally inflames the pride of man | [49] |
| III. | War necessarily infringes on the consciences of men, and therefore is criminal | [52] |
| IV. | War is criminal, as it is opposed to patient suffering under unjust and cruel treatment | [56] |
| V. | War is criminal, as it is not doing to others as we should wish them to do to us | [60] |
| VI. | War is inconsistent with mercy, and is therefore criminal | [61] |
| VII. | War is criminal, as the practice of it is inconsistent with forgiving trespasses as we wish to be forgiven by the final judge | [63] |
| VIII. | Engaging in war is not manifesting love to enemies or returning good for evil | [64] |
| IX. | War is criminal, because it is actually rendering evil for evil | [67] |
| X. | War is criminal, as it is actually doing evil that good may come; and this is the best apology that can be made for it | [71] |
| XI. | War is opposed to the example of the Son of God, and is therefore criminal | [72] |
