Dietrich Bonhoeffer: A Story of Courage and Faith
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 05. 2024
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German theologian, is a Christian hero for many. Executed by the Nazis just days before the end of WWII for his participation in a plot to assassinate Hitler, Bonhoeffer is hailed as a 20th-century martyr. But Bonhoeffer struggled with a moral dilemma - his religious views were in stark contrast to the evil he saw all around him. He chose to face possible imprisonment and execution and to remain faithful to the principles of his belief in God. Across the political and theological spectrum, Bonhoeffer is celebrated as an icon of true Christianity and his theological writings are classics throughout the Christian world.

Why is the legacy of this man not taught In EVERY history book in the U.S. He is an ICON of what EVERY Pastor, Preacher, and REligious Leader should be.
Well spoken
@@scottlafromboise6328Amen!
Amen
He was when I was in school. Junior high 1978.
Could not agree more.....
We will need men and women like Bonhoeffer in the years to come.
Yes, we surely will.
And right now!
True. Or other pioneers of faith such as Hudson Taylor whose mission outweighed personal wellbeing.
Yes and a great saint Maximilian Kolbe
Yes
My grandfather lived in the same period in the Netherlands.He was a member of the resistance in the netherlands.He hid a young jewish woman in his house.He was a christian and membre of the protestant church..He often said when we asked him why he took the risk to resist,Gods people(the jews)where in danger.And I could not sit on my hands and do nothing.I often thing of him and all those people who jeopardize their lifes to save others.I feel great respect for all that gave their lifes.
Hi Heleenglazenburg Good morning I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌺🌺🌺
You are blessed to have had such a remarkable grandfather.
Christ gives strength to the weak our country was made independent by misfits,and untrained,non military farmers,trappers,and regular citizens who believed in freedom.Thank God for the many great leaders who laid the foundation of the documents of righteousness we learned from God's word the Bible " In God We Trust ".
My father as well. They hid the local pastor who was working for the resistance. He was also in the Netherlands.
"I have made a mistake coming to America. I must live through this difficult period in our national history with the Christian people of Germany. I will have no right to participate in the reconstruction of the Christian life in Germany after the war if I do not share the trials of this time with my people." Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
Quite amazing.
Ein Hirte
I remember reading that too,in his book. I can’t imagine making that decision to return to Germany. Knowing what was probably in store for him. Such courage and faith!
Don’t call it a mistake, God calls us and we must go. Here in America we need light in this present darkness as well, so for such a time as this you were called to come to America!!
@@sharonjackson9523 woosh
I admire Boenhoffer so much! What a tremendous man who lived his faith to the end. He is an example of true Christianity.
True Christianity is for you killing of Jews by Nazis like Luther and Boenhoffer????
Rudolf Richard Hess also. Hitler was a false prophet who sold his soul to the Synagogue of Satan. You will know them by their deeds to prepare for these the climate change end times.
Jesus humanities Christ Messiah gave us the truth about these the climate change end times due to the precession of our stars shadow equinoxes when earth's orbits eclipse the Sun's electromagnetic gravitational equator separating it's two fermie cells for the next 1,000 years causing these the climate change end times. "As it was in the days of Lot & Noah so to shall it be in the days of the son of man." Jesus
The covidiot quackzine is the Jewish Passover, Roman Rapture, Nazi final solution to depopulate the planet because we are in the last days due to earth's orbits eclipsing the sun's magnetic equator for the next millennium. Jesus died so we wouldn't commit this global genocide again.
TicToc the first of 19 sedimentary layers will be deposited when the new moon pulls the oceans out & around the planet east to west with the first of 19 major conjunctions of mercury & venus in 2033 & every 40 years thereafter for the millennium it takes the earth's orbits to eclipse the sun's magnetic equator separating the fermie cells of it's oort cloud magnetosphere.
"Do not forget this one thing 1 year is as 1,000." Jesus
Yes Amen
DB life was a life of compassion. He was moved by his commitment to Christ/as we today also should be.Gods best all the family of God .We are to admire Jesus as well as love Him.
Amen
“We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself.”
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Bonhoeffer was true hero of faith - Hallelujah 🙏🙌
He was a true disciple of Christ and a hero to both the world and heaven
Praisealujah!🗣🎯⛲🕯
Thank you for sharing that quote. It was one I was unaware of.
God bless!!
@@MrKingamaziah yes he was thanks !
Amen!
Forgive me, Lord, for my cowardice and stupidity. I am ashamed as a Christian to have fallen for cheap grace.
“Cheap grace”? I don’t know what you mean by that, friend. The grace of YHVH that saves all who believe on Him through believing on Jesus Christ, was by no means cheap, and honestly, how horrid for you to refer to it as such. Our redemption comes at a tremendous cost, for the grace and mercy we have received to take away our transgressions was purchased with the precious ßIood of the only unique (meaning of begotten) Son of YHVH, God incarnate bodily as a man, who gave Himself as the substitutionary atonement for our transgressions. That was YHVH in Christ on the cross, our Creator in the flesh, who gave Himself in our place so that He could justly forgive us for our transgressions, and YHVH says it was Him who was pierced for our iniquities in Zechariah 12. You just called the ßIood of YHVH “cheap”. Do you understand that? Do you understand Acts 20 when it says the ßIood of God purchased our pardon from our transgressions? Do you understand 2 Corinthians 5 when it says YHVH was IN CHRIST reconciling the world to Himself? Do you understand Jesus Christ when He says He is the Almighty I AM in John 8, and the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, in Rev 1, which are all OT TITLES OF YHVH? We owed a debt to YHVH that could only be paid for us by the perfectly righteous ßIood of a Savior being shed in our place, and because only YHVH is perfectly righteous, He veiled Himself in flesh and entered our world to be our Kinsman Redeemer, the righteous dying for the iniquities of the unrighteous, so the unrighteous could be set free from the coming wráth of YHVH. He knew He had the power to raise Himself up again the 3rd day. How can you call what God did on our behalf “cheap”? Have you been deceived like the foolish Galatians in Galatians 3 into believing you are made righteous by your own works? Why don’t you reread that chapter and understand that our righteousness comes by our faith in what God incarnate, Jesus Christ, did on our behalf, as His perfect righteousness is imputed to us who believe, just like Abraham’s faith in YHVH was counted as righteousness to him, Romans 4. We receive the indwelling Holy Spirit BY FAITH, and NOT BY OUR OWN WORKS OF THE FLESH. Who has deceived you into believing otherwise, so that you commit such ßlasphemy against God by referring to the grace purchased through His shed ßlood as being “cheap”? That’s what you need to ask forgiveness for.
@@Redeemed.of.YHVH.thru.Christ if Yahweh has to crucify his only son, if he requires a blood sacrifice to forgive, he has no Grace- especially when scriptures say that "God" is responsible for the hardening of hearts, the blinding of eyes, and disillusionment of the mind. Those with power and authority have the responsibility to lead and guide those beneath them. To confuse, mislead, abandon, and allow wickedness to run rampant in the world is not just. Maybe you never read Romans 11:32 "For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all"
If I break your legs intentionally so that I can appear merciful when I give you a wheelchair, I am neither just nor merciful.
@@Redeemed.of.YHVH.thru.Christwhat's cheap is the Bible. Imagine if I wrote a book for my kids and then left them. Imagine if I didn't speak to them, if I didn't help them as I watched murderers, robbers, and rapists destroy my offspring. Then generations later, in my own wrath, I sent plagues, war, and pestilence upon my offspring. Mercy is OWED. God should be asking his creation for forgiveness, not the other way around!
@@Redeemed.of.YHVH.thru.Christ Listen again. For one of his examples, Bonhoeffer said that forgiveness without repentance is cheap. The ultimate sacrifice, of course, was Christ dying for humanity, when they choose to follow Him. The " cheap" part is accepting Christ's forgiveness--without true repentance, which means turning away ( from the sin.)
You should wash out your blasphemous mouth and go back and study a bit more…
Thank you for this video of a true disciple of Christ.
When I picked up his book "The cost of discipleship" more than 30 years ago, what grabbed my attention was the words "when Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die".
That book influenced my life deeply. If we heed the call we indeed die in many instances, more than once, as we choose life in the spirit over the carnal life.
But once you realise "I have died with Christ, and it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me", nothing can shake you. You become unshakable. Glory to God!
Same with me…
☮️
Praise God. Hallelujah!
Your comment is simply profound!
I also read cost of Discipleship and it changed my life too.
I have such respect for Dietrich Bonhoeffer and read his Biography. He truly was a follower of Jesus and so courageous.
No, he was not truly a follower of Jesus. Bonhoeffer was an evil heretical sectarian who followed himself.
Salvation is free but discipleship is costly.
I read a biography of him. It was a pretty large book. I was glued to every page. What a blessed man he is.
🙏Please tell us the Title of that biography 🤓☝️
@@floraridaswoboda Bonhoeffer , Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy by Eric Metaxas. Fascinating. Highly recommend.
I read this book in the German translation with copies of the original letters . I read it twice. Thick book with overwhelming details. The title truly describes him.
I read the book as well- exceptional .
Yes, excellent read.
This man had so much love and compasssion for his people that he went back to Germany to speak up for them even knowing that death was likely awaiting him
He felt that Germany is his place from God. Not a save life in America. It was his destiny.
We need men of such today. Ones who will stand up against evil.
So true. Dr. William Makis is one of them. Also Dr. Peter Breggin.
Arthur Pawlowski is one!!!
the bigger call is to become these men ourselves
We have men like Bonhoeffer in USA, but the people won't listen.
I think it will be women who will stand up.
After I graduated college I took a class on religion taught by a wonderful pastor. I did a report on Bonhoeffer. It was so inspiring to me. I should of studied Divinity instead of psychology. This was a great video. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback. May God lead you and bless you.
Thank you folks! I'm a pastor in rural America and really appreciate the tremendous testimony of our dear brother, as well as this challenge. God is so good, and Christ is worth it all!
What is your opinion of Trump and MAGA movement ?
Trump is like Hitler and even Quotes him. Disturbing
God has sent us strong delusion through Trump, that some should believe the lie; God is separating the sheep from the goats. Hold fast to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, do not follow false prophets.
@@eschmidtiii4673 I agree, "hold fast to the gospel Of Jesus Christ."
Wow! This is really inspiring. It is wrong to be silent when evil is taking place.
Absolutely
I agree.
Sadly, many are remaining silent.
His biography by Eric Metaxis is an incredibly well done and important biography. Dietrich Boenhoffer is easily one of the greatest theologians of the modern era. His teachings are other worldly and definitely worth time studying. The ending of his life in a concentration camp with only three weeks left in the war, when Dietrich was in his prime for teaching and insight, is a great loss to humanity.
The comment by a German Pastor, "Christ has come to us through Adolph Hitler.", is truly shocking and I sincerely hope that this sentiment will NOT be taken up in today's world, regarding present day political leaders. We need a Dietrich Bonhoeffer the world today and all of us need to follow Bonhoeffer's example of true faith.
well, actually this attitude has been taken up by a lot of people in this very country that we like to call the land of the free. I mean, haven't you heard that certain TV evangelists insist that they have, in heavenly visions, seen Donald Trump seated at the right hand of God? Isn't that where Jesus used to be?
@@jesuisravi Very disturbing🥲
I have to add that I am a committed Christian and I certainly have NOT taken up this attitude that those evangelists are displaying.
@@dalewillis1360 I hear you.
With all due respect, let there be only one Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and may we all be stronger in our kindness and belief in one another. If we do this simple act, the need for any new saint will be much less, and hopefully, non-existent. Still, I hear you @dalewillis1360, and understand you say these things with a good heart.
Praise the LORD for creating endurance that glorifies the LORD.
Calling yourself a Christian does not make you a Christian. Only those who deny themselves, take up their cross daily, and follow Jesus Christ are true Christians. Read your Holy Bible and pray to God for understanding.
Absolutly 😊
Amen
Indeed. I wish more people would live out the meaning
Making yourself a private interpreter of books which were deemed by the catholic church to be inspired scripture, does not turn you into a Christian. Only true catholics are Christians. All so called Christians who are not catholic are nothing more than heretics on the way to hell. You need to check out youtube channel MHFM1 for crucial information on the bible, the historical church of Christ and the Great Apostasy prophesied in the bible which indeed could and did happen only from the catholic faith, the one and only truly universal faith established by Jesus Christ and his apostles.
Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
This video had me in tears .What a strong-willed person what strong faith. ❤
A true believer of our Lord Jesus Christ, a Christian
As a Christian myself, I highly recommend, and I urge my fellow Christians to
read, "The Cost Of Discipleship" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer! And here is another
word to the wise; Any government, or any institution and ideology (religious
or otherwise), which suppresses freedom of speech, freedom of expression,
and freedom of thought, has essentially nothing going for it!!
Powerful story, may his life and all other Martyrs lives rest in eternal peace. Great upload.
Bonhoffer is the hero of every Lutheran!
Thank you Lord Jesus for the cross and for this video.
What a brave man, a true believer and a shining example to us all!
Christ is worth it all! We need more people as Bonhoeffer to defy the works of satan even until death. God bless you as servants of Christ!
Amazing Grace
D.B. God's truest friend.
Thank you for saving Jews and other believing christians.
Thank you T.I.J.
Blessings 🙏
Danke für dieses wundervolle Video, es erzählt die Geschichte um Dietrich Bonhoeffer so, dass man gerne zuhört.Unser Gemeindehaus trägt seinen Namen❤
Ich sehe Parallelen zwischen ihm und Olaf Latzel!
An extra ordinary man!
I hope i can be as brave and courageous as this man when facing the trials that are coming our way as the world grows ever darker. We must be willing to stand for Jesus and are fellow man as he did with the compassion of Christ
What a brave and truly spiritual man of God he was. I thank all in the making of this incredible video
Jesus calls us not to religion but to life....Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Thank you.
Thank you so very much for sharing such an inspirational christian historical story.
I had heard about Bonhoeffer many years ago but this is the first time, his life and dedication to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was revealed to me. I am so grateful. May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ bless you and all those who are cooparating with you to spread His word, abundantly AMEN!!!
Dietrich was a great Christian role model. Eric Metaxas did a great job writing about him. Riveting stuff!
Very interesting testimony. I met Richard Wurmbrand - I have never fully recovered from the sheer intensity of his holiness and utter humility. He quietly radiated the presence of the Lord with him and in him.
DB clearly was similar as he awaited his death and execution. At peace with God.
Read both of there biographies - how much deeper as Christians we need to climb the everlasting ladder of fervent service as our goal till we reach Heavens Gates. Jim Elliott also comes to my mind missionary who was speared to death in Ecuador. Our lives don't belong to us, they belong to Jesus. Thy prayer - help this weak vessel deny thy self to honor you in every way.
I absolutely envy that you got to meet Richard Wurmbrand. I read his book Tortured for His Faith when I was only 14. It was so horrible yet his faith so strong, his knowledge of the Bible thorough, and he was a kind man. I have so many of his books now. He’s in Heaven now but someday we’ll all be together!
@@jsshay01 It was amazing how it happened. I was reading a book when a friend came and said, get your glad rags on. There's a good speaker tonight in Liverpool. I was reluctant. Friend said, you can read the book anytime. I went. A little late. Hall packed. Taken to the front to sit on the side of the stage as the host said, ladies and gentlemen, please, welcome our guest, Mr Richard Wurmbrand. He gave his testimony. I could barely lift my head to look at him. Truly, the presence of God exuded from him. It was very overwhelming. I'm so glad I went. I picked up my book next day to continue reading it. Tortured for Christ. My friend hadn't told me it was him speaking. I also met a Russian man Valeri Barinof. He had been tortured, too.
His family made it to the UK. He came to visit my husband a lot and showed us his scars. Very, very humbling. I was upset but he just said....it's okay. Jesus was with me all the time.
He returned to Russia.
I also went to hear him speak. as a young child, I was aware of him and many others were true martyrs, but failed to realize the impact he and others had on the Christian faith, all while deeply hated by the evil parties in charge. This is a very important story you tell of this man's similar life. Thank God Almighty for his gift to humanity these people became.
So beautuful, I had to pray your prayer. I am a weak vessel.
Thank you.
Most inlightening.
Well seasoned aging Christian.
Running the race to finish.
Shalom Jerusalem
Shalom Church
Bonhoeffer rightfully and bravely opposed Hitler. GOD heard Bonhoeffer 's prison prayers.
Bonhoeffer changed my life FOREVER!
He is one of the few heroes that I have. What an amazing man. His biography by Eruc Matexas is riveting. One of the best books I have ever read. Well worth the time...I couldn't put it down. I think it's called Pastor, prophet, martyr, spy. ❤

My phone is wacko. Eric Metaxis wrote the book " Bonhoeffer," because he was paid to do so. He learned nothing in his research. He hated writing the book, and disagreed with Bonhoeffer's perspectives. Eric Metaxis is part of the extreme Religious Right Nationalist community of false Christians, was a Trump supporter, and helped promote the Evangelical Right's insinuation into the political current Republican Party. The parallels to the union of Church and State during the 1930's in Germany and uniting the German population with the absurd claim that Hitler was God's man, is mirrored by the Evangelical Right Church's claim that Trump is God's Savior of an America that has never truely existed. Nationalism based on White Supremacy, a love of Authoritarian control, Dominionism, spreading fear, stirring up violence, hatred of the other, banning books, anti semitism, targeting gays, a hyper masculinity mindset, an anti immigrant sentiment, and wrapping Christianity together with Fascist ideology is taking Hitler's playbook and installing it once again in America. The similarities are not coincidental. We must not allow this path to continue here. It must be stopped. For the love of Christ and His commandment to love one another, vote Blue. This may be our last chance before darkness swallows us whole. This is the beast with the fatal head wound come back to life. Rev. Ch. 13. Trump is the little horn with the big boastful words spoken of in Dan. Ch.7 and 9. We must push back hard and drive a stake into the heart of this beast once and for all. Eric Metaxis is part of it.
I've read Bonhoeffer,. Before the end of the first chapter, I loved him. He is not a martyr. He is a conviction.
What a beautiful child. What a beautiful soul.
I've always been drawn to Bonhoeffer - cheap grace resonates with me - I have always felt so blessed by God throughout my very fortunate life - maybe I haven't stepped out of my comfort zone ?

Bless Dietrich for his decision to go back to Germany!
Dietrich Bonhoffer was a true hero -- without a gun. He had the Gispel and strong convictions. He was a man of courage who dared to oppose Hitler & his indicrinating ways & challenged the church of his day. He stood out amongst the fearful & corrupt -- and paid for it w/ his life .A courageous man that ,yes,shoukd be taught to students .
I recall a poem one of my lecturers read out while Bonhoeffer was in prison it was really interesting background to the story of his resistance and also his struggle .

What a exemplary man
Such bravery and dedication!!!!
Just finished Eric Metaxis' biography of Bonhoeffer. Wonderfully research with a deep understanding of the man and life's conundrums.
How can Christians like Metaxes laud Bonhoeffer, while idol worshipping a Fascist thug like Trump, who increasingly exhibits all the red flags Bonhoeffer warned about? Christian Nationalism is exactly the type of Fascism that most German Christians went along with. How can American Christians not see the parallels?
This channel is such a blessing. May our Lord sustain this wonderful work you are doing.
Thank you so much for this great video !!! Pastor Bonhoffer is a true inspiration.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer Was A HERO Of The Highest Order! I'm Going To Get His Biography As Soon As I Can. Blessings On His Family And His Descendant's Too.🌺🌺🌺🙏🙏🙏🇨🇦🇮🇱♾️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🗽🦅‼️
Thanks 4 the Jesus Christ who strengthens our heart
This type of courage is unusual and difficult to replicate. Most pastors express what is popular. As a former pastor, I know the difficulty of thinking deeper than popular culture and expressing the contents of one’s conviction when those convictions refute the popular position. A rare man indeed. Thanks for the video.
Wonderful inspirational faith in Jesus Christ.
Thank you from Canada 🇨🇦.
Hi dear good morning, how are you doing?
Thank you very much for this❤❤❤

You are welcome. We are glad to hear you enjoyed this and hope you also enjoy the free book. God bless
What a story! What a man!
Have read Bonhoeffer biography by Eric Metaxas 3 times-riveting. THANK YOU for this well done video which quickly gives an excellent overview of who this amazing follower of Christ was.
How can Christians like Metaxes laud Bonhoeffer, while idol worshipping a Fascist thug like Trump, who increasingly exhibits all the red flags Bonhoeffer warned about?

That's a true believer. That is true faith. History is going to repeat itself and in times of political turmoil is when God separates the His sheep from the goats!
The true cost of discipleship is something we all cannot afford unless Christ is Lord in our lives.
Thank you Father for the life and testimony of Dietrich.
Very interesting story.. l had never heard of him before and an very blessed to have learnt about him today
There are several wonderful books available
Quite an inspirational story.
In Bonhoeffer, there was no contradiction between caring for the wounded under the wheels of injustice and driving a spanner into the wheel.
Actually he made a pointed distinction about our duty in injustice- not just to care for the wounded( "putting bandaids on")--but work to stop the injustice.
One important movies to watch and learn from should be required in every church teachings
beautiful story
Acts 1:14
These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
Powerful testimony
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ from lebanon
Thank you so much. inspiring!
I have his Letters and Papers from Prison. Best book. Outside the box. Thanks you for good presentation,also your accent is clear enough English. I am American and I appreciate that your narrator was clear enough for an American.
More people should be like him stand up for His Faith!
I think he was standing more for people than his faith.
Beautiful man and wonderful devotion to Jesus, our loving Savior.😔🙏🏻❤️✝️
Gott ist groBartig!
Very profound
This was very good and informative about the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and I feel appreciative of it, however, the free book at the end being offered is written by the co-founder of the Seventh-Day Adventists. Christians need to be forever discerning.
Bless you. This is what I was looking for. Thank you for your encouragement and clarification; may you be Blessed. 🙏🏼
Yes - both the tv series and Gary Kent belong to the Seventh Day Adventist church. As a traditional Christian, I do not uphold their teachings, but we need to know their beliefs and perspectives to continue our discernment.
I have many friends who are SDA, JW, and LDS/Mormon. We have some interest “exchanges” - but - I know it is my responsibility as a Christian to help them see the difference. We are told by Christ to love these people…and emulate Him by speaking truth and sharing the unadulterated Gospel.
Have you read the book yourself? As Paul wrote to those in Thessalonica: "Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast to that which is good".
What a great testimony to the world! And to the church of Jesus Christ ❤
Great documentary. Oh that my life would have an impact like that long after I'm gone for God's glory.
This touched me.
No greater example of Christian, have i ever heard of & I was glued to the book, until the end 🙏
I am the way the truth and the life he who follows me with have life eternal .. take up your cross and follow me ✝️✌🏻🙏🇺🇸
No comment. Just silent reverence, admiration and gratitude. Yes, and someone should make t shirts with his likeness.
I read his biography,so challenging,we need men like him now more than ever
Thank God for this great man
We are not far from this happening here
Exactly what I was just thinking.
Trump said today “I will be a
Dictator”. May 6, 2024
You didn't state correctly what the context of his words were!
@@jamesgordon8867 can you really be a dictator for just one day? 🤨
I think you are a bot!
Go listen to what TRUMP SAID!
This us an outstanding ministry...thank you all for it!!!!.
Thanks for this video, never knew about him and his story very inspiring. Truly faith with action
Where's God's actions upon the Earth? Why the sick game of belief in something unseen when you are told in the commandments to not bear false witness? To make a claim for the resurrection, to make a claim for Jesus, is bearing false witness. Saying the Bible is the word of God is bearing false witness. To speak of something as true that you yourself have not witnessed is to tell a lie.
@@amyrenee1361 I believe you may be confused in order to state your position. To make a claim for Jesus is a claim for faith after much study in the history of the Hebrew nation.
@@amyrenee1361 i dont understand what's your point of argument
If you said about God action upon earth when this video about Nazi, then i want to ask what happen to Nazi and how Adolf Hitler name until now he remember as evil, like a cursing
About claiming Jesus is false witness, now it's another question i find confusing
You ask this because you are atheist or you are from another religion?
And who told you that Christianity is false? Isn't the one that told you is human?
No joke... this man is one of the reasons I was never able to cross over from agnosticism to athiesm and why Christianity was fascinating to me. I'm a believer today... years after his death he played a role in that.
