Q. Why is this post here? A. For four reasons.

First, the Holocaust should never be forgotten.



Second, Israel as a nation has yet to accept their Messiah. My prayer is that this post may lead some of them to Him before it is too late.

Third, the whore of Rome needs to be exposed for what it is.

Forth, to share the thoughts written below.

Update 5/7/2012: About a week ago I had the opportunity to hear a Holocaust survivor speak for three hours of his experience in Europe during WWII. He was captured by the Nazis in 1941 and was a prisoner at Auschwitz for 8 months, until he escaped. He narrowly escaped death on many occasions, by the grace of God and his ability to speak many different languages. The account he shared was not pleasant to hear, but it was and is a good thing that the truth of what went on is heard and known. It was something I did not want to miss. Soon all of those who experienced that Holocaust will no longer be living. Then we can no longer hear it from someone who actually experienced it. Fortunately, books have been and will be written to preserve this history which the world would be wise to remember, in hopes that we can avoid repeating it. But in reality, this Holocaust was not the first, nor the last, and even at present the evil forces in this world are driving multiple holocausts, not least of which is that of abortion. Ecclesiastes 1:9, 3:15.

Perhaps the point that people most need to understand about the Holocaust is this; that those committing such atrocities thought themselves sane, reasonable, and even righteous. Today we may picture these evil Nazi cultists, but they were no different then many people living today. This is not to say that they were not evil, rather, it is to point out how evil many are today even though they believe themselves good-doers. Another point is this; when everyone around you is doing something evil, it is a test which you can fail by not standing up for what is right despite the perceived consequences.

Many of these 1940's Nazis would brutally murder and humiliate those whom they captured. Then they would go to church on Sunday, being kind to their own children, living the example of Hypocrisy. Today, churches are filled with many doing the same thing. They are murderers, fornicators, and friends of the world, faining a hope of salvation from the same Lord whose blood they continually shed. Matthew 25:40,45, Hebrews 6:5-6, Luke 6:46, Matthew 7:21, Matthew 25:31-46.

Jeremiah 31:31-34 fulfilled !

In Jeremiah 31:31-34 we read of a new covenant which the Lord shall establish and how he will write his law in the hearts of his people Israel. This prophecy in Jeremiah is fulfilled today in Christian believers who receive the Holy Spirit. We know this is so because the new covenant has been made, through the shed blood and death of Jesus Christ and the good news that believing on him and repenting we shall be saved. Jesus said in John 14:26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” And we read in Ephesians 2:12-22 that All mankind is saved through Jesus Christ and the barrier that kept the Gentiles from the promises made to Israel has been removed. “For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.” -Ephesians 2:18 (also see Galatians 3:29). “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.” -Romans 2:28-29 And most obviously we know that the Holy Spirit fulfills this prophecy in Jeremiah because we are told so in Hebrews 10:15-17. - “Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. (also see Hebrews 8:8-13)

I find that this is Amazing!

"I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart." - Psalm 40:8

"Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart. And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward: Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life." - 2 Corinthians 3:3-6
