Kingdoms in conflict

---

Kingdoms in conflict has an excellent, researched account of just how Hitler organized his take down - appealing to the youth, and attacking the church's right to worship as they wished. The early persecution carved church member ship from 18,000 people at the first meeting to just a few hundred. There were some great saints who died in concentration camps, some after years of torture. I see so many similarities to what is happening to our government and church right now. This book dovetails nicely with Roger Oakland's "Faith Undone" - which offers some chilling insights about our immediate future. I like how Colson brings in many famous thoughts from atheists as well as believers and uses them all in a positive way to make his points. His position is that the church should never become involved with the government, and he gives many historical examples of what happened when the church capitulated to the state. It was always disastrous. It is a faith-strengthening book.
