Nonviolence in the best sense is a strict and definitive social justice. It means putting into practice the one law isolated by Paul in the letter to the Romans. He said, "You will have fulfilled the law if you bear the burdens of one another." Paul says in that same context that there is only one law, to love your neighbor as you love yourself. In Matthew's Sermon on the Mount, the neighbor includes your enemy.
