“If You Could Stop the German Nazi Holocaust, Would You?”
“If You Could Stop the German Nazi Holocaust, Would You?”
Is this a silly, hypothetical question: “If you could stop the German Nazi holocaust, would you?” Wouldn’t you like to think that such an atrocity wouldn’t have been voted for, paid for, or enabled? Wouldn’t it be nice to have the confidence that if informed, everyone would’ve wanted to stop such a slaughter? Although the Nazi holocaust happened in the past, it is an important question with modern-day ramifications and lessons for today.
“You shall not murder.” (Exodus 20:13)
If you lived in Nazi Germany from 1941-1945, you lived in the midst of 6,000,000+ Jews, non-whites, and disabled souls being legally slaughtered without mercy…by mass shootings, gas chambers, and labor camps.
What do you call this?
A massacre: “a brutal slaughter of people.”
A holocaust: “destruction or slaughter on a mass scale.”
If you lived in Nazi Germany and had the opportunity to speak up or to vote for a change, would you? Would you have the courage and conviction to vote to close the concentration camps? If you knew about the mass slaughter going on inside?
“they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters…the land was polluted with blood.” (Psalm 106:37–38)
If you lived in America from 1973-2022, you lived in the midst of an American Holocaust of babies in the womb being legally slaughtered without mercy… by chemical poisoning or dismemberment by suctioning, cutting, or crushing an innocent baby. 296,000+ murders in Kentucky. 63,000,000+ murders in the U.S.
What do you call this? A massacre. A holocaust.
“the Lord hates…hands that shed innocent blood” (Proverbs 6:16-19)
Praise the Lord for the overturn of Roe vs. Wade, a judicial ruling that enabled the modern-day American holocaust of abortion. Now we have an opportunity to pray, speak, and act. We have the once-in-a-generation chance to vote for life on November 8 for Kentucky Constitutional Amendment 2. We can affirm that nothing in the state constitution creates a right to abortion or requires government funding for abortion. We can close down abortion mills in Kentucky for good.
Don’t live in Kentucky? What about your community, state, and country? How can you make a difference? Will you?
“Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all who are destitute.” (Proverbs 31:8)
If you had being complicit in the days of Nazi Germany, and regretted it, I would pray that you would repent to Jesus for forgiveness, for healing, & for hope.
If you have been complicit in the days of the American abortion holocaust, I pray that you would repent to Jesus for forgiveness, for healing, & for hope. Our God is willing to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9), to include the sin of abortion.
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (1 John 1:9–10)
“If you could stop the American abortion holocaust, would you?” This is not a hypothetical question. You have the chance here in Kentucky. You can make a difference wherever you live.
We can change ourselves, our state, and our nation. May we pray and speak up for life. May we take action for life. May we vote to defend life. We have the opportunity, let’s not waste it.
