Nuremberg Stadium Podium

Hi, I’m Pastor Lutzer, and I’m standing on the podium where Hitler gave his famous speeches. It is from this pulpit that evil went forth. And of course, it affected the entire world. Two hundred thousand people gathered here in Nuremberg, and it was here that he inspired a nation. And, of course, he led them to a very destructive agenda, an agenda that was so overwhelming, so optimistic, so euphoric, that everyone went along with it, or at least almost everyone. There are lessons that we must learn. Solzhenitsyn says that anything that has happened in the past can happen in our generation. What we need is individuals who say to themselves, “I will not go along with the agenda, even if it means torture and my life.”

May God grant us that kind of courage. Thank you so much.
