Dramatic documentary about the young German pacifist and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer who resisted the Nazi regime and was hanged two weeks before World War II was over.
Director: Martin Doblmeier
Writer: Martin Doblmeier
Starring: Martin Doblmeier, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Adele Schmidt - Zábava
The book Bonhoeffer by Eric Metaxas is one of the best books I've ever read. I can't get enough of learning about Deitrich and the faith and principles by which he stood. I need to read The Cost of Discipleship
Then you don't have a high standard of reading. I read through Dietrich Bonhoeffer (that's how the name is spelled) and there is some good indications that this man was a reprobate. That there was something terribly wrong with the man was also evident to a number of German Evangelicals.
USAR8888 ...
Indeed, he stood strong on his faith and principles. He was never ashamed of his dependence on Christ for the difficult decisions.
The Lord Jesus is the Only One Who will bring peace to this wicked world. He is coming back!
The whole of scripture points to Jesus' second coming to earth to take His rightful place reigning as King on this earth.
History repeats itself, and scripture tells us a more evil one than Hitler will soon enough be on the worldwide stage. The last few years have shown us how easily it is for worldwide dictates to be put in place.
My prayer is that many come to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ soon, and certainly before that most evil time period comes upon the world.
1Corintians15:1-4 is the gospel....the good news for our eternal souls that we must only believe God the Son, Christ Jesus died, was buried and three days later rose again from the dead.
It is a free gift...saved from the punishment of our sins...no Hell. Saved to be with the Lord in heaven into eternity!
We did nothing to become saved...only believe..and we can do nothing to stay saved. Soon as we believe, we have the Holy Spirit living within us and we are sealed!
This man, Dietrich, depended on Jesus. Part of Dietrich's ministry, and life, was to let people know Jesus is available to anyone.
@@savagesh2531 Didn't hinder him to accept employment by the Abwehr. And I wonder what Christ he was believing in. I think his writings shed some light on it. And it doesn't look good there.
@Metapolitik Gedanken God can use whomever he wants wherever he wants. Are you saying military service is a bad thing? Are you saying you don't agree with how he disseminated information? What makes you the mind of God?
@Walt Lonsdale Well, that was treason wasn't it? And well, if you are in military service especially at an officers rank, there is a duty of remonstration, if you find the decisions of your superiors wrong. Bonhoeffer didn't remonstrate. He wished for a catastrophe of his own people, because they did not worship him and his ideas. That's narcissism to the extreme.
We must seek to be modern day Boenhoffers when facing the totalitarianism in our society today.
Eric Metaxis has a book Letter To The American Church. Bonhoeffer had the courage not many have had. May God give us courage to not be intimidated, and to not be silenced by bullies.
Very good book !
Bullies like America?
The book is good, but I found it more hagiography than historical biography. I read for the warts also, because they make the good stand out even more. The best biography is what Bonhoeffer wrote and did in support of the victims.
Sadly I see so many parallels in what’s happening in our society today & what happened in Germany!
China is the new Nazi's
Agree
And you will continue to see it.. and so will your kids and so on.. unfortunately, it seems a normal cycle lol
Agree. I haven't read his works but, IMO, I gather he'd probably say, "then do something to help change it for the better." I think he's urging us to put our Christian values into action despite the risks personally for the benefit of others, all at the mercy of God. He certainly walked the walk. RIP, brother.
History may not repeat, but it certainly rhymes
Very interesting documentary. Thank you. I'm reading (listening to the audiobook) The Cost of Discipleship, and it's literally life-changing to me.
Right so.
I read some of Bonhoeffer's writings to realize that he had courage to live out Joshua 1:8 when very few did. It seems he loved God more than he feared the Nazis.
It can't be proven there's a "God". Bonhoeffer stands out because most German "Christians" did not. Hitler hid behind "Christianity". Putin does today. Trump has touted the "Bible". The right-wing "evangelical" "Christian" movement in the US has always been extremist right-wing racist and Fascist.
How many "True Christians" just "go along to get along" even as they quote from the "Bible"?
@markjohnson can you suggest the writings you came across? Thank you
@@fabianpittman6740
There have been many different collections of his works published in large books. Some of his best books that I have read are:
The Cost of Discipleship,
Life Together,
Prayerbook of the Bible,
Ethics,
Letters and Papers from Prison. 💙🙏🏽💙
That was the second Bible verse that I ever committed to memory, Joshua 1:7 being the first.
@@fabianpittman6740 The two that come to mind are the Cost of Discipleship and Ethics which I did a class presentation.
We must be able to stand up to what is morally right as Christians ✝️. Just as this man did . May I have this strength. These times are coming. They are almost here .
They are here. Now.
Blessings and Strength.
Be strong in Faith.+
Amen.🔥
How about standing up as humans. rather than some specific type of person.
As humans as Christians.
Did not mean to offend . Just stand up
Yes, Shelly; I agree with you - completely on this. 👍.
This is a Great documentary. What a soldier for Christ.
He was a soldier of humanity; that goes beyond religion.
@@robertdore9592NEVER!!!! This is what the Holy Bible teaches to serve humanity not some religion so GO EDUCATE YOURSELF ABOUT CHRIST BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH, THANK YOU!!!
Sadly, these times are here and always been.
I needed to see this to counter the extremely negative perception I have of Christians and Christianity.
The remedy for that is self reflection.
@@adammooney2415 No -- self-reflection, in the end, leads to despair.
The true remedy is to reflect upon "whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things" (Philippians 4:8)
And, in the end, when one learns that Christ is the source of those things -- to reflect upon Him.
And in reflecting upon Him -- we reflect Him to others.
That is the remedy.
Don't worry about Christians- just look to Christ. Christians are broken people trying to follow Christ, and often failing.
Glad to hear that the live of this man has this effect, what a honor for the name of jesus
I'm so very sorry that so many Christians have been cruel or indifferent to the sufferings of God's beloved Jewish people. There has been a shameful history of Christian antisemitism. Dr. Michael Brown has a really good book, Our Hands Are Stained With Blood.
And History repeats
He was one of the few men who had earned the right to call himself Christian.
He would be so upset to hear you say that about him.
@@harrisonlang4815 Are you so sure? Perhaps he simply understood the good of Christian ideals, where so many others fail. Perhaps today, in the information age, he would have a more mature perspective on religion, but what evidence do you have that he had access to such ideas in his own lifetime?
I just read his book, the cost of discipleship, powerful book in itself but to know his biography along with his writings…. Wow!! Your right he knew what it meant to call yourself a Christian!!!! A true disciple of Christ!! 🙌🙏
i agree, there are millions of fakes out there!
@@421bb4 Mostly they are just loyal to the framework of society that was built for them. I've often directed people to find a church, despite my own atheism, simply because I know that's how this world was built and there is rarely a better option.
For some of us, and some churches, there is also no worse option. That's probably why there are so many fakes, because they don't believe in what they are doing and they realize there is nowhere else to go to get the support they need to survive in this world.
It also creates an amazing opportunity to operate a global criminal network of brainwashed participants who will support anything that is put in front of them, no matter how corrupt or stupid it may be to less gullible eyes. It's an obvious manipulation, any master predator would seize the opportunity to be a cult leader. And they usually do, on some scale or another.
As an atheist though, I've fought the bitterness. I'm not content to pretend to hate anyone for their ignorance. It only makes the problem amplify further.
“War is not healthy for flowers and children and other living things”.
It should be clear from Bonhoeffer's involvement with the assassination plot that he was not a pacifist. He understood that there are greater causes than simply the preservation of life.
In his writing titled Ethics he explains that in full detail as to his reasons. His work was not completed because he was executed, but he wrote enough to get the message across. Tough and thoughtful reading.
This is an unfortunate interpretation. As Mark Johnson below suggests, his Ethics book problematizes your statement. As do many of his letters and lectures. We should try to find other categories for understanding Bonhoeffer. Pacifist and the implied just war theorist are unhelpful.
The question becomes… is it right to intervene to save the lives of others? Many people would intervene if they saw someone threatening or directly injuring another person - at least call the police - but what if a person is causing the deaths and torture of millions through the hands of others?
The greater cause is the preservation of the soul through Christ and with the power of the Holy Spirit, ALL for the glory of God! ✝
Over thousands of years philosophers, poets and other valuable thinkers of every culture have dealt with and warned of the conditions for rising of tyrants! In vain! Bonhoeffer‘s faith helped him to stand for his attitude! A perfect example for us to listen more to such people (no matter of their background) and to stand up in time against such dangerous developments! There are still enough philosophers, poets and valuable thinkers of every culture among us around whom we should listen to! Today we have no excuse with the Internet of not knowing them! Like the faith of Bonhoeffer may the one or the other convince us with the strengths of their arguments and help us to think for ourselves! A perfect lesson for all the evangelists and other fanatics who follow such „false leaders“!
amen! ✝️
"False leaders"? Are you saying that Adolph was false? Or that he was not a leader? Or are you saying he was installed by God according to the scriptures Daniel 4 -17. I think you are making big mistakes not knowing the scriptures.
"Philosophers poets and valuable thinkers" What good are they on the day of death? Isn't God called the "Lord of Hosts" in the scriptures? Doesn't that mean God of War in today's English? Didn't God start WW2? Raised up all the rulers and generals. Rom 9-27. From the womb. Dan 4-17
"Strength of their arguments"? What was Bonhoeffer's argument? Doesn't Rebellion always have a cause? (Except James Dean!)
"Think for ourselves"? There is a way which seemeth right unto a man but the end thereof are the ways of death" Prov 13-12. John 3-16, KJV. Thinking for yourself will lead you to the fire of Luke 16. There is a man in the fire. Is that what you want?
We MUST stand against the world, the leader of this present darkness
Did you read This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti?
I read a very good book about his life and sacrifice. Oh that we could all have a mind for God like him.
Superb. Well made and deeply moving ... 👏 🙏
Two additional thoughts : Bonhoeffer's radio speech, made at the time Hitler assumed power, concerning 'those who will seek to make a dagon/god out of their temporal leader' has very strong parallels to today's American Christian Nationalists and a certain Mr. Trump ... the comment made towards the end by the academic who observes that 'Bonhoeffer and the other resistors act as they do, not to make themselves look good nor to seek praise from others, but to selflessly strive to leave a better world for future generations.' In this celebrity mad, attention seeking, materialistic age - what a refreshing, enobling thought ! 🙏 🕎✝️☪️
Profound faith and service
Thanks a lot!
The body of Christ must stand up injustices and not be silent
May I be so faithful.
He was a very handsome man good and beautiful
I love Dietrich as I love myself, and I pray you do also. I love God first, foremost, and in that love he guides me, uses me for his ministry, prepares me for his will! I pray you do too! Be still and know that God is with you, as he instructs you in his way, for in that way only will you be free. Amen!
These times are complex not simple. Simple only in looking back. Let's be wise.
A lovely documentary, but hte background music is too loud making it difficult to hear the speakers over it.

Sorry I hit wrong button. He is the only way anyone can get to heaven.
@@glendagaskin6002 christians don't read properly. Jesus is saying if you believe in him, as in the practice and discipline of his teachings, you have a shot at salvation. Nobody can save another. You need to learn how to save yourself thru purification of mind+body, the exercise of virtue, and development of concentration/meditation.
Too few views, considering the current state of America where ethics+morality have been reduced to following the orders of superiors.
Stop presuming all americans think the same.
@@robertandhollyscorpiofan2697 I don't. But it's very rare to find anyone in America that has thought deeply about right+wrong, proper+improper, wholesome+unwholesome, good+evil. Most people judge with feelings, which are just a sensual indulgence. Furthermore, it is even more difficult to find anyone that stands their ground in the face of corruption. Do you claim to be one of those that do? I bet I could defeat any such assertion in a minute.

Probably those who want to make a country great again. Power creates a vacuum that is filled with victims of that power.
Brilliant documentary, thank you. One pedantic point: Luther's last works were all pretty much Dreck. He was so physically and psychologically rattled that "On the Jews and their Lies" isn't even consistent with any of his previous work. That is to say that Bishop Huber is correct. It seems that dear Dr. Bonhoeffer was the St. Cyprian of this time.

Bonhoeffer did die for his faith in Christ.
New book called A Letter to the American Church by Eric Metaxas should be read or listened to. I think a movie has also been made worth listening to
*Bonhoffer's failure to speak at His Brother-In-Law's Funeral, reminds me of *Peter's weakness and the crowing of the Rooster! THE ROMANS AND THE NAZIS WERE SCARY! VERY!!!! *They Regretted It!
I wish some of our republican friends would watch this and understand the perspective... back in 2013 I did a 6 part series and opened with this
“What is a moral person to do in a time of savage immorality? That question tormented Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German clergyman of great distinction who actively opposed Hitler and the Nazis. His convictions cost him his life. The Nazis hanged him on April 9, 1945, less than a month before the end of the war. Bonhoeffer’s last years, his participation in the German resistance and his moral struggle are dramatized in this film. More than just a biographical portrait, ‘Bonhoeffer: Agent of Grace’ sheds light on the little known efforts of the German resistance. It brings to a wide audience the heroic rebellion of Bonhoeffer, a highly regarded Lutheran minister who could have kept his peace and saved his life on several occasions but instead paid the ultimate price for his beliefs.”
In the second paragraph of the Book of Confession introduction to The Theological Declaration of Barmen we read:
In January 1933, after frustrating years in which no government in Germany was able to solve problems of economic depression and mass unemployment, Adolph Hitler was named chancellor. By playing on people’s fear of communism and Bolshevism, he was able to persuade the Parliament to allow him to rule by edict. As he consolidated his power, Hitler abolished all political rights and democratic processes: police could detain persons in prison without a trial, search private dwellings without a warrant, seize property, censor publications, tap telephones, and forbid meetings. He soon outlawed all political parties except his own, smashed labor unions, purged universities, replaced the judicial system with his own “People’s Courts,” initiated a systematic terrorizing of Jews, and obtained the support of church leaders allied with or sympathetic to the German Christians.
It would be hard to think of something such as this happening today. The lessons of history continue to remind us. The thoughts, theology, letters and other papers that we have of Bonhoeffer can be a powerful tool to keep alert for those forces of ultra nationalism (in Germany eventually called Nazism) that tend to erode the freedoms so hard earned in exchange for what could be called security or stability. It was George Santayana , who, in his Reason in Common Sense, The Life of Reason, Vol.1, wrote "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
George Santayana (1863-1952) words are rooted in the philosophies of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and many others to follow. The Stanford University provides an outstanding outline and additional background on this important and profound philosopher, essayist, poet and novelist.
Santayana's quotation, in turn, was a slight modification of an Edmund Burke (1729-1797) statement, "Those who don't know history are destined to repeat it." Burke was a British Statesman and Philosopher who is generally viewed as the philosophical founder of modern political conservatism.
Might wanna view it again.... Just sayin'
What is the difference between what the Nazi's and Fascist did and the current democratic party?
Don't understand why you think it would be hard to imagine this happening now.
I don't see what political party has to do with biblical theology, and its outworking in the culture. Both parties in America desire to incorporate Christian principles into their respective social platforms, all the while devoid of Christ.

Jesus's said Children of this World wiser than that of Lights, Albert Einstein too didn't lose faith in his native land for ordinary Christians shown extraordinary courage!
Like the Bonhoeffer's Sanctum Commons, Adam Smith might say same things about WEF & Other Maximizers as Powers & principalities of Destructions if not heeded to the Invisible Hand.
15:14 He looks similar to Otto Frank.
The follow up book by Eric Metaxas, based on the story and the example of Bonhoeffer, is entitled "Letter to the American Church." It calls out today's Church using the example of the failure of the German pastors who refused to listen to Bonhoeffer. We would all do well to takthe e this warning to heed and consider how close we now are in America to the situation in Germany in the early 1930s.
Desmond Tutu as a spokesman for this film on Bonhoeffer? You've got to be kidding?

This is coming to America...
It's here
It’s definitely in ruSSia, as they focus on expanding their evil, oppressive empire again, freely committing genocide!
20:02 he got it right and understood the Gospel. Would I have resisted? No, God set a time for war and for peace. Resistance is interfering, is being rebellious against God. He set in political powers and depose them again. God is fulfilling his word and we shouldn’t interfere his action. Resisting can be just a simple No, but if you kill you will be killed by the sword. Read Revelation 13:10 it’s important to internalize this for the future dark days. Resistance is easier than preparing to die for your faith in Christ.

This movie is the German analogue to *Gandhi.*
Of the Holocaust, I wonder whether he ever asked himself...how did a God that is all-powerful and all-loving allow this to happen?
A pathetic argument. An all-powerful, infinitely loving and wise god that, so the Bible tells us , repeatedly performs miracles on behalf of the Jews, for example parting the Red Sea, when it came to the the Holocaust, did nothing as 'bad men' slaughtered their good. Many observant Jews jews pondered this question, and unlike you, have not been able to provide an answer and as a result, given up their faith. I am sure the same question is being asked after 1,200 Jews were pogromed by Hamas on October 7. What had they done to deserve their fate?
Either they were not very good bomb makers, or God was not in it at that time. He allows suffering for a time for an eternal purpose, of which we are most unaware, but we do get bits and pieces here and there. I was dismayed that I couldn't make out what was being said half the time and had to turn the volume all the way up, but then when the narrator came back on it was blasting so I had to turn the volume down again. It was very distracting and annoying. But other than that I enjoyed the history and admired the men who tried to stand for what was right to them. Sometimes it is very hard for people to understand and know God's will and what a Christian "ought" to do.
Which God was Hitler reffering to??? Not the one that says A great multitude of ALL nations, and kindeds and peoples....be unto our God forever. Revelation 7:9 KJV
🙂
But was he born again? Without "Love/Jesus" we are but a sounding gong.
He trusted in the Lord with all of his heart, loved and followed Jesus every day. Have you actually read any of his books, such as The Cost of Discipleship, or Life Together? He taught that Jesus wants us to give Him our Whole Life, not just repeat a shallow prayer inviting Jesus to live in a small corner of a still self-centered life; which is what is taught by most Americans who choose the terminology you have used.
What did Peter tell the crowd of people in Acts 2, whose hearts were cut to the quick on the day of Pentecost, when they asked how they could be saved? Did he say, “You must be born again and so now repeat the sinners prayer after me?” No, they were ready, hungering for God from their hearts! Peter told these who wanted to follow Jesus that the first step is to repent and then be baptized. They obeyed, that very same day! They were also filled with the Spirit of Jesus! And then they spent the rest of their lives loving, worshiping and following Jesus and fellowshiping daily with their brothers and sisters in Christ! Do you have that testimony?
A life focused on knowing, loving and serving God, loving and serving people, walking with and following Jesus daily, giving Him First Place in our lives, is a life of full joy! I pray you have this, and focus on judging your own heart rather than the hearts of others.
💙🙏🏽💙
Whether he was born again or not doesn't matter. How he lived is what matters.

Only Jesus has the power and propensity to save a soul.

You are aware that he wasn't Catholic, right?
Mary and Joseph save no one. Why are you praying to dead humans as if they were some kind of deity? Dear friend, your theology is terribly confused if you believe this is in any way acceptable behavior before God. The Bible is quite clear in it’s prohibition against necromancy (communicating with the dead) as well as praying for the dead. A person’s eternal destiny is confirmed at the moment of death. Praying for them at that point is useless. Praying to other dead people on another dead person’s behalf is especially useless; dare I say it is in fact, endangering your own soul. Only Jesus Christ can save us from sin and death. Praying to anyone or anything else is to make a mockery of the power of Christ’s once and for all sacrifice on the cross. Luke 16:19-31, Hebrew 9:27, Deuteronomy 18:11, 1 Timothy 2:5.

Preaching and politics don't mix!
This excellent documentary is marred by far too many ads. They are very distracting.
What's worse - and quite annoying and ironic - is to watch this documentary about a deeply anti-authoritarian, anti-Nazi, ecumenical theologian filled with ads for partisan right-wing religious movies, and a conspiratorial religious public service ad that makes a positive mention of Donald Trump. This is the sort of religious messaging promulgated by amoral evangelical opportunists like Fox News, white nationalists, the money-grubbing right-wing TV preachers, and gun-loving racists who preach an angry, bigoted form of Christianity that would have been unrecognizable to Jesus - and unacceptable to Bonhoeffer. The latter was a dedicated intellectual, reflexively analytical man who would have found the simplistic, hyperpartisan, reactionary religion of the US evangelical right to be odious - and little different from the "theology" of Christian Nazis. In his resistance work against the Nazis, Bonhoeffer made common cause with political Liberals, agnostics, atheists, and with Christians of various sects.
Bonhoeffer embraced civil rights. He loved the theology, practices and the political mission of black churches in the USA. He would certainly have embraced and worked for the Civil Rights movement in the 50s and 60s, had he lived. He would definitely, positively have supported voting rights. He would have reviled Trump and the January 6th insurrection. To consider otherwise is willfully ignorant.
You need a good ad blocker. I didn't see one:)
Also you are mired in psychological warfare, Jan 6th was a psyop, your perceptions are managed by the NWO!
Your caustic and hateful condemnation of the religious right has no place in a documentary about Bonhoeffer. Above All Else, he affirmed throughout his life that we must love our fellow Christians and we must do all we can to promote love and unity. Your comments stand in stark contrast to what Bonhoeffer stood for. As someone who has diligently studied Donald Trump as well as Dietrich Bonhoeffer I can confidently say that I have always supported both.
@@andrewparis4060 - No one with a functioning brain and a soul could believe in both Trump, a hateful, godless, serial liar, thief, narcissist and would-be dictator, and Bonhoeffer, a man of conscience and humility. Your pose that you embrace both is a sham. That or you're a moron.
