The tragedy is not that nonviolence did not work against the Nazis, but that it was so seldom utilized… The churches as a whole were to docile or anti-Semitic, and too ignorant of the nonviolent message of the Gospel, to act effectively to resist the Nazis or act in solitary with the Jews. Walter Wink Commentary: Jesus has more than one side! He overthrew the tables of the money changers in the Temple and called them a den of thieves! These were business people! He told the political leader Herod he was a fox! Jesus will judge the living and the dead some into everlasting life and some into everlasting judgment! The church sometimes over history has been out of balance! It was the church in Europe that raised an army to drive out the Muslim invaders! The cleverly devised 501c done by politicians has muted our Pastors across America! The American church is like the church living in Nazi Germany! However there were some German Pastors that were executed by Hitler for taking a stand for righteousness! Where are the voices of the American pastorate when it comes to abortion, homosexual marriage, transgenderism, lesbianism, Islam, socialism, open borders, sanctuary cities, drugs, sex changes for children, evolution and the list goes on? With a few exceptions they are as quiet as a dead church mouse! You have to resist the devil with your mouth! The words you speak from scripture! The bully pulpit has died in America! God is love because he hates sin! If we do not raise the standard of the Biblical Gospel and oppose evil in our own culture then we are wasting our time to show up at church every Sunday where our money is collected to feed the neutered church! The church disfunction and non- application to popular culture is in our own making! Resist the Devil and he will flee from you! The Church in America needs the courage to resist!
