Another Holocaust?

I often use this springboard when witnessing of how Hitler killed over six million people and we don't even use his name as a word to express discuss. But we use God, who has given of life to do so. I have always been interested in World War II and when I watch the movies I am just fixed on all that is taking place. I love the History Channel and how they have these specials all the time and I saw one just a few days ago. It had to do with the Holocaust.

If someone mentions World War II, most of the time this topic will arise. The Holocaust has always kept my mind working. I have a deep sense of passion about it. How could this happen? Really, How? "Why and How did the world sit by and allow this man to kill six million people?" This is the conclusion that I think is why?

I was watching the History Channel one day about a secret extermination camp that the Nazis had in Poland called Sobibor . This specific camp was run strictly by the SS. It was said that there were only 22 soldiers in the camp with well over 500 prisoners. In the first two months - from early May to the end of June - 100.000 Jews were murdered in Sobibor. Transports arrived by rail, and prisoners were taken immediately toward the gas chambers. But the victims did not know what awaited them until the gas was being pumped into the sealed chambers. T he first transport included 10,000 Jews from Germany and Austria, 6,000 from Theresienstadt, and thousands from Slovakia. Sobibor's gas chambers killed an approximate total of 260,000 Jews. Why I asked.

Read this account given by of of only 47 people ever to enter and leave alive.
Kalmen Wewryk miraculously survived Sobibor and later recalled a certain transport from Holland: "There were too many Jewish children to be "processed" rapidly so they were in a long, steadily shrinking circular line from morning to night. Such beautiful children, gorgeous little blonde girls with pigtails, decently dressed. These poor unfortunates were well-fed, with pretty, round little faces. Their parents must have loved them so, must have lavished such care on them, and now ... Many of them carried small suitcases or bags. It was pitiful, so sad! The SS men were watching over them. Some of the kids were crying. They probably understood. The soil was sandy, so some children made circles in the sand and they played with pebbles and branches. After all, they were only children. Some children's eyes were full of fear - they were wide-eyed with fear. It was a day straight out of hell! And every minute less and less of them, less and less. The line got shorter and shorter. And the children became smoke in those accursed skies ..."

This also was another story I heard as well. There were a train that had just arrived and the women were having there head shaved by Jewish prisoner. One of the survivors said that as he cut this lady's long hair off, she asked him how could he do something like this, To his own people. He stated that he did not reply to her. and said it was out of fear. He was afraid. Do you see it now. Fear. It grips us all. We are afraid to do something about it. In WW II We allowed this to take place for so long. What about today. Another Holocaust is taking place.

150,000 people die each day. They either go to Heaven or Hell. Many today just sit by in their comforts zone and pretend it doesn't exist. Today we can do something. The enemy has lost his power. He has already been defeated. He does not want us to know that. He uses fear as his only weapon against us. Will we sit quietly in the night as he invades our homes and city's or will we put aside our fear and fight.

F.D.R. said, " You have nothing to fear but fear itself." Don't allow this Holocaust to take place, Tell someone about Jesus.
