The Nazis used the teachings of Martin Luther. He believed they were of the devil and formulated an eight point plan for their extermination. Among other things, Luther advocated taking the Jews property, destroying their holy books and churches, and that killing them should not be a crime. Look up On the Jews and Their Lies, 1543, by Martin Luther (1483-1546).
Adolf Hitler himself was Catholic. The hate that Protestants advocate also extends to their hate and lies about atheists.
Whether or not Adolf Hitler called himself a Catholic or Christian makes no difference whatsoever! The man was a godless monster. Protestants do not advocate hate, neither do they hate or tell lies about atheists. They simply proclaim the truth of Gods word. "The fool hath said in his heart, 'there is no God'"... Psalms
Contrary to what Yad Vashem may say, the record shows Bonhoeffer resisted for the sake of the Jews, not just Christianity...anyway, he didn't do it for the praise of men...fascinating life story
thanks for trying, as a Christian Zionist, sometimes -- like almost every day -- it's exasperating to watch Jewish groups (& individuals) so not be able to recognize which Christians are for them & which are against, they often aren't just off, but sometimes totally backwards, inviting the enemy in, even hiring them (!), & failing to recognize those who've loved them with even their lives.
Thank you for posting this video. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a Saint. He lived the Gospel and died for what he believed. If only more Christians had been more Christ-like and followed him in resisting the Nazis.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Bonhoeffer was in a plot to kill Hitler. Most everyone now thinks that would have been a good thing; myself included. Why do these same people who consider Bonhoeffer a hero condemn Paul Hill who shot a babykilling abortionist dead when the abortionist was on his way into the babykilling abortion mill to murder 32 babies?If a Nazi on his way in to murder 32 Jews no one would have a problem. Contrary to their words, Christians do not believe the unborn child is of equal value as a born child.
RevSpitz, I truly believe that every unborn child that is taken away from us through abortion is murder in the eyes of the Father above. The seconde the two cells connect, the soul is sparked into the fetus. Abortion is murder, I think that most Christians either know very little about the issue or ignor it all together. This most unfortunate, because it our votes who elect the politicians that allow this atrocity.
Real Christian succession. Bonhoeffer understood what it means to be a follower of christ and not only because he became a martyr but because of his understanding what "being christian" really is about.
dietrich bonhöffer , one of the greatest people, who speaked out. but he had the conflict if it's ok to kill a man. this conflict treated him his whole life . one of his sentence: ist's bett to do sth bad than to be bad.
Hope we can learn from his mistakes. hitler killed himself and Bonhoeffer died unnecessarily. Bonhoeffer would have been a great asset to the world alive and challenging all peoples esp.with respect to religion.
The film "Dietrich Bonhoeffer - Agent of Grace" is a "must see" for every Christian person

Cheap grace is:
forgiveness w/o repentence
baptism w/o doscplin
communion w/o confession
absolution w/o personal confession
All w/o cross,Jesus Christ,incarnate.
