Third Reich Christianity: Rosenberg and Hitler
I used both a 1950 and 1953 edition of the Holy Bible—these were the oldest and subsequently ‘closest’ versions of the Bible I could find that would be similar to the Bibles that Hitler had read—for a dissertation I wrote for my Political Science Research Methods course.
Here are a couple of Christ’s quotes that are very interesting:
“Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers [Jews in many versions], how can ye escape the damnation of hell?” -Matthew 23:33
“If my kingdom were from this world, my followers would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews.” - Jesus in John 18:36 [NRSV]
“Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division.” - Jesus in Luke 12:51
“And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.” For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in diverse places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.” - Jesus in Mark 13:7-8
“But those mine enemies [Jews in most versions], which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.” [emphasis added] - Jesus in Luke 19:27
“And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.” - Jesus in Revelation 2:23
Rosenberg and Hitler: Third Reich Revisionist Christianity
“Over 700 pages long, it [The Myth of the Twentieth Century] was easily the most abstruse book ever written by a Nazi. In keeping with their own religious views, party leaders like Hitler and Göbbels heaped enormous scorn on it. According to one biographer, “Hitler completely rejected… the mysticism with which Rosenberg, in his main work… attempted to give a religious intensity to a racist interpretation of history.”
Although Hitler was known for tailoring his remarks to please his audience [which any intelligent politician or public leader would do], even in Rosenberg’s presence he was less than enthusiastic. Before publishing it, Rosenberg asked Hitler for his opinion of the book (six months after receiving the manuscript, Hitler still had not read it.) Hitler coolly replied, “It is a very clever book; only I ask myself who today is likely to read and understand such a book.” … According to Albert Speer, Hitler referred to it as “stuff nobody can understand,” written by a “narrow-minded Baltic German who thinks in horribly complicated terms… A relapse into medieval notions!” On another occasion, Hitler made reference to its “heretical outpourings.”
- Steigmann-Gall, The Holy Reich: Nazi Conceptions of Christianity, 93.
What I find to be most interesting, is the fact that even Rosenberg—who has been alleged to have been the most fervently anti-Christian and anti-religious of the National Socialists—did not entirely despair of Christianity. He spoke very highly of Christ’s conception of a socialist world that would serve to throw off the yoke of predominantly Jewish-led, albeit ‘capitalistic’, oppression. Moreover, Rosenberg never denied Christ’s ‘divinity’ either.
Indeed, Rosenberg refers to Jesus’ parables as teachings in guise, as one never knew who was listening in on conversations He was having with His followers. For instance, Rosenberg interpreted Jesus’ parable of the weed to literally transpire to the ‘Jew’. Rosenberg, for his part, did not wholly reject Christianity as a religion either, as it clearly meshed well with Nordic mythology and culture, and Rosenberg apparently accepted this reality, as he had pointed up in Mythos.
“Rosenberg affirmed his belief that “in all probability” Jesus had not been a Jew. Rosenberg affirmed his belief that, whereas Jesus was born into a Jewish culture, “there was not the slightest reason” to assume that Jesus was Jewish. Christ’s teaching that the Kingdom of Heaven is within us was a “thoroughly un-Jewish, mystical teaching. The traditional, ecclesiastical picture of Jesus had been a distortion of the Roman Church to present a picture of submission and meekness in order to create an ideal that would foster servility.” - Ibid., 96
In fact, even though Rosenberg focused on Jesus’ temporal, as opposed to divine, acts he still neglected to dismiss Jesus’ divinity altogether. He said, “In spite of all the Christian churches, Jesus is a linchpin of our history. He became the God of the Europeans.” - Ibid., 96
Rosenberg went even further when he stated, “A totally free man, who inwardly disposed with the total culture of our time, demonstrated the finest feeling for the great superhuman simplicity of Christ… as the mediator between man and God [in reference to Chamberlain’s religious views.]” - Ibid., 96
“Rosenberg also regarded Luther as nothing less than the greatest forerunner of German nationalism, racial purity, and spiritual independence.” - Ibid., 97
“For Rosenberg, Luther’s great deed had been the destruction of the priesthood and the Germanification of Christianity.” - Ibid., 97
“Schemm began by directly confronting those who claimed that Nazism replaced Christianity with a new race religion: ‘Race and religion give rise to each other [think of Hinduism and India or Buddhism and China, two incredible religions that necessarily ‘belong’ to the former and latter respectively… there is no room for universality—universal, multicultural application—of these religions, in the sense that the liberal world would like to see]. I do not believe that the Völk are obliged to put aside race for the sake of religion; otherwise all natural and historical development would be invalid.’ Schemm attempted discursively to reconcile science and religion, instead of simply discarding or demoting science as Göbbels and Eckart did.” - Ibid., 35
“Hitler’s conception of Christianity, consistent with those of other Nazis so far, contained a good deal that was far from orthodox: namely, the insistence that Jesus had not been a Jew and that the Old Testament was to be expunged from the Christian canon.” - Ibid., 37
This is nearly identical to the conclusions I had come to when I wrote my two pieces [2005], “Hitler’s Persecution of Jews: The Influence of Christianity” and “Hitler’s Christianity: The Influence of Nietzsche”. The fact that this hypothesis can be reproduced using myriad sources—mainly primary—makes it all the more powerful and convincing, as to the story of how Hitler really was, especially with regard to the beliefs that he truly adhered to. Christianity is always being reinterpreted, expounded upon, and reinvented. I do not think that anyone can honestly argue that Creative Design could not possibly merge with Christian doctrine. Of course it can, and it probably will, as new scientific discoveries are made and revealed. Think of Galileo in this case and his heretical ideas regarding a heliocentric universe. Christianity bends to the scientific facts when they cannot be denied. This however, does not make Christianity any less viable, and Hitler—of all people— made this quite clear in many a conversation and speech.
The most important thing for people to really think about—with regard to Hitler’s personal Christian beliefs— is this: If Hitler was really ‘evil’, or if he really had hated Christianity and willed to destroy it, why didn’t he? Lord knows he had the power, time, and ability to do it. He allegedly held the entire German populace under his complete, unchallenged, totalitarian, terroristic control, and yet, for all his personal power and alleged ‘evil,’ he never once even attempted to launch attacks against the churches and/or Christian religion.
The only true villains of Christianity were Stalin and his predominantly Jewish-led government. They relentlessly razed the many Christian churches throughout the entire Soviet-occupied region, and Stalin used his power to terrorize people, unlike Hitler. Hitler may have made a few raucous statements—along the lines of—condemning Germans to their deaths for not being tough enough to stave off and throw back the Soviet onslaught, but these were idle threats that were never enforced. One must take into account the fact that Hitler’s incredible empire was coming to an end, and a most terrible and tragic one at that, and if he was less than ‘chipper,’ one could certainly understand that. His generals never had to fear for their lives, so long as they did not become traitors or desert their men or their leader. Stalin mass murdered his generals, and soldiers who were caught defecting were shot dead on the spot. Moreover, Stalin—not Hitler or the Germans—was personally responsible for the mass murder of the Polish intelligentsia, including Polish priests, which had been wrongly attributed to Hitler for years (Katyn Forest Massacre)! What ‘other’ crimes of the Soviets, and Stalin’s willing executioners, might still be wrongly or unknowingly attributed to Hitler?
“He [Hitler] concluded from these ruminations the first result: ‘Purification of the Bible—that which is consistent with our spirit. Second result: critical examination of the remainder.’ This “purification” is almost certainly an allusion to the Old Testament, which both Eckart and Dinter claimed had to be removed from the Christian canon owing to its origins in Judaism.” - Ibid., 27
“In a nearly evangelical tone, Hitler declares that the “true message” of Christianity is to be found only with National Socialism. He claims that, where the churches failed in their mission to instill a Christian ethic in secular society, his movement would take up the task. Hitler not only reads the New Testament, but professes—in private—to be inspired by it.” - Ibid., 28
Hitler referred to Jesus as “the true God.” - Ibid., 27
As I will continue to reiterate time and time again, Hitler’s National Socialism was a true, unadulterated version of Christianity. Naturally, it had to come to an end, because the devil has not yet had his thousand-year reign terminated. Thus, Hitler may have been either premature and tried to ‘force’ things to come to pass, or more likely, Hitler was a messenger of God, sent to European-Christians to fulfill Christianity’s last stand against the devil before the Apocalyptic war. He was God’s message of hope to the West… a warning, if you will.
I do not believe that one can wholly deny that Hitler’s downfall was the downfall of Western society and Christianity, as the attacks on these two world-renowned ideologies began shortly after the end of the Second World War. These recent attacks on Western societies throughout the world, as well as their many Christian traditions, are not merely coincidence. There is a concerted effort being exerted, the world over, to bring down Western societies and all that they represent.
Hitler is used against the West, as the West was responsible for producing Hitler, who, according to Lawrence Birken, was just another European… no different than any other European of his time. In fact, Birken suggests that Hitler was actually a philosophe—a direct result of the Western Enlightenment—and that he was actually considered far less radical than many of his contemporaries, or even many prominent Western thinkers before him. (Hitler as Philosophe: Remnants of the Enlightenment in National Socialism). In other words, this hypothesis suggests that the Western societies of the world are inherently ‘evil,’ and that Hitler was just a natural conclusion, or product, of this inherently ‘evil’ and oppressive society. Birken suggests that ‘Nazism’ was the natural conclusion of Western thinking and the Enlightenment. Hence, it is wielded as a weapon against Western societies to keep them in check, because one never can tell when they may ‘go Nazi’ on the world. This is absurdity at best. In fact, this kind of thinking is as senseless as the belief that all of the Jewish people are literally plotting to control the world. They are creeps and murder en masse, but I doubt that every one of them is deliberately helping to usher in world dominion. It appears as such, but remains highly improbable.
The Apocalyptic war may well be in our near future—or, perhaps it was WWII—but it is not our job, nor our right to busy ourselves with the senseless guesswork of predicting Apocalypse, as the Jews have done—and continue to do—with their “Bible Code” nonsense. Our job is to resurrect a living faith of Christian National Socialism, so that we can withstand the devil’s hordes against our very right to exist as a people. Recall what Christ had once said: “They will hate you because of me.” Hatred for Christ has transpired to hatred for the true Christian leader of WWII—Hitler—which in turn has transpired to the very people that ushered in Christ’s faith, and adhere to it to this day—the Christo-European Empire, its collaborators, and sympathizers.
Nobody is more hated by Jewry than Jesus Christ and Adolf Hitler. The question is, why? There are a couple of notably “whacky” web sites that ponder the idea that Hitler was Christ. I believe that these people—even though they are a bit “out there”—are onto something. They can see a correlation. To deny it is folly. If one is inclined to believe along these lines, then one would probably be more readily accepting of the idea that Hitler was Christ’s “Intercessor” or “Advocate.”
Reflections on Hitler as Christ’s Advocate
I would briefly like to digress for just a moment, in order to ponder the precept that Hitler was the Advocate of Christ. I know that most “Christians,” if they can even be called this, believe that the Holy Spirit is the Advocate, but there are problems with this belief. To begin, let me first discuss the Catholic definition of the Advocate. Let us look at the evidence and the facts.
Hitler Was Not Antichrist
Hitler never denied the Christ, and as a matter of fact, had called Jesus “the true God” (Steigmann-Gall, p. 27), the “greatest anti-Semite of all time,” and the “great Creator of the concept of socialist redemption” (Wagener, p. 167); indeed, Hitler had actually claimed to be inspired directly of Christ and His teachings (Wag, pp. 57, 139-141, 167, 170); he had denounced the Jewish Old Testament as “the arsenal of the Antichrist” (Eckart, p. 57); he had refused to accept being donned a “Messiah” (Wag, p. 172; Bormann, p. 463), therefore, he neither believed himself to be a replacement for Christ, or the predicted satanic Jewish Messiah, which clears his name in both respects—he was neither Antichrist nor Solomon-Messiah; lastly, he believed in the resurrection of Christ, albeit, through His followers (Wag, p. 140).
Hitler As Advocate, not Antichrist: The Evidence
Hitler actually claimed that Jesus was finally, nay, truly being resurrected through National Socialism (Wag, p. 140). He said, “We are the first to exhume these teachings!” Now, how can Hitler be called “anti-Christian,” if St. John had even stated, “No one who abides in [Jesus] commits sin” (1 John, 3:6)? In other words, it is impossible to commit sin if one is truly following the teachings of Christ. Hitler had claimed on numerous occasions, in public, as well as private, to be an adherent of Christ. Furthermore, this biblical passage alone exonerates Hitler from any and all guilt for the persecution and internment of Jewry during WWII (which the Jews were almost solely responsible for), as Hitler had followed the exact words of the Bible; thus, he was doing the will of Christ, in His name, by opposing the devil’s reign. John goes on to say that those who commit sin do not know Christ, and are therefore of the devil—he is referring specifically to the Jews (1 John, 3:8); notice too, that John had just previous—to this—told us that true followers of Christ were incapable of sin. This is one reason as to why the Jews, as precious and kind as they are, revile Christians and want to burn the New Testament. It also means that Hitler was not guilty of any sin in his persecution of Jewry, as he had dealt with Europe’s Jews justly—in Christ’s name—and was therefore incapable of sin, as regards this particular issue. If one is a true adherent of Christ, then one cannot commit sin in His name, just as one cannot drive out the devil with Beelzebub.
You may take me to task on this and ask, “But, what if Hitler merely pretended to be an adherent of Christ?” I can only retort with evidence that serves to completely exonerate Hitler in this regard, as his actions, beliefs, notes, recorded conversations, speeches, and monologues overwhelmingly suggest that he was indeed a man after truth, Christ socialism, and the total dismantling and destruction of the Jewish-Antichrist system in place in the world, at the time. Hitler did not pretend, that I am absolutely certain about, beyond a reasonable doubt. Was he sometimes guilty of tailoring his remarks, making concessions that he would have rather not made, and political expediency? Of course. But that is moot, and pales in light of the evidence that can be stacked against it. I might just as easily use Ahmad as an example. Is Ahmad really a believer in Islam? Undoubtedly. Is he using certain people and possibly exploiting some non-Islamic groups and ideologies for the benefit of Islam? Of course. Is he making concessions with non-Islamists for financial and political reasons? Naturally. Does any of this discredit his faith or his ultimate goals? No. The same can undoubtedly be said of Hitler.
The anti-Gentilic Jew, Abe Foxman, of the racist, anti-Gentilic, Arabian-hating ADL, claims that the New Testament needs to be banned because it’s “anti-Semitic.” Good luck, Abe. This is one reason why Jews hate Hitler and Nazi-Soziism so much; because it was truly inspired of Christ. That is why Jewry became the nemesis of the Nazis. Hitler’s Christian faith could only carry him in the direction of holy war against the Jews because, if one really believes what Christ had taught, then one really cannot do otherwise. You cannot, or you cannot call yourself a Christian. But, this does not mean that it has to be, or should be, violent. In fact, violence is less likely to work against Jewry. Jews need to be completely boycotted and ignored. Remember, the Jews starved the Russians, Ukrainians, and Germans unto their deaths. They are not nice, and they are never decent once they have the upper hand. They can never be allowed to gain the upper hand in any nation-state. EVER!
Now, back to my previous point, I can only speculate that Islam has a very similar precept behind the teachings of Muhammed. I would also like to very briefly explain that Christians have been deceived on the issue of Jesus as “the Son of God.” You can, indeed, still be a Christian without adhering to the lie that Jesus was God’s immaculately conceived son. Jesus said, “Now is the Son of Man glorified” (John 13:31); He does not say “Son of God.” St. John clarified the truth later on. He said, “Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God” (1 John 5:1). So, the only necessity for being a child of God is the acceptance that Jesus was “the Christ”—the “anointed,” or “anointed one.” John does not say that one has to believe that Jesus was literally the birth-son of God. When the Apostles say “Son of God,” it does not mean God’s child; that is so ridiculous. The brevity of that precept is so much deeper and more spiritually profound than that, that the notion that Jesus was God’s baby is almost the most belittling Jewish lie of all. The precept of the “Son of God” entails the Word and Message of God, God’s teachings, via Jesus, in opposition to the evil one, the worldview of God, as opposed to that of Lucifer’s Jewish agents, the will of God, the deeds that God would have us do, and so much more. The title, the “Son of God,” is more than anything, the “Principle of God.” The best thing I can suggest is that anyone wishing to really understand Jesus must read and reflect upon the Gospel of St. John. He was, by and far, the most anti-Jewish, perceptive, and educated of the Apostles. Forget anything and everything that Rabbi Saul/Paul said, as he was nothing more than a Jewish liar and false convert. Hitler had lectured Bormann on this very issue, on more than one occasion, as recorded by Bormann himself in the table-talks.
It might be pertinent to mention that John had said of the Jews, “They are of the world, therefore of the world they speak and the world listens to them. We are of God. He who knows God listens to us…By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error” (1 John, 4:6).
The 1951 Catholic Bible offers this translation for the principle of the Advocate: “Intercessor,” from the Greek word “Paraclete.” Intercessor means “one who pleads on somebody’s behalf.” Furthermore, the Catholic Bible also assigns to this “Intercessor” a sex. The Advocate is referred to as “him,” and “he.” Lastly, the Catholic Bible says, of the Intercessor: the “function of the One thus designated is protection, assistance, defense” (1951 Catholic Bible: Holy Trinity Edition, p. 101). Hitler had undeniably protected, assisted, and defended Christ’s Empire; all in His name.
The translations of the Bible from Greek into English have revealed themselves to be rather unreliable, in many respects. Where the Holy Spirit of God is referred to as “Advocate,” and where this seemingly futuristic male “Advocate” is referred to, are not necessarily the same “Advocate”; also, John calls Jesus “the advocate” (1 John 2:1). Clearly, this is a problem. There are far too many references to advocates throughout the Bible, so, we must be very careful when we distinguish them. Undoubtedly, the Intercessor is not the same entity as the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the principle of inner divinity within man, whereas, the Intercessor-Advocate is explicitly referred to as a male. Jesus had stated that “He [the Advocate] would bear witness” concerning Him. It would not be at all out of line to believe that Hitler was His Intercessor, as Hitler, and Hitler alone, had fought to defend the Western-Christian Empire, which remains the only empire of Christ. If this empire falls, then Christ will have been defeated. It’s as simple and realistic as that.
Hitler was the only leader, during WWII, who fought and died for the Empire of Christ. To believe otherwise is to adhere to a lie, which will spell your demise. The Jews are the incarnation of Antichrist, and one need only observe what they did to the Persians, Amalekites, Spanish, Greeks, Romans, Russians, Germans, and now, Semitic-Arabians, Syrians, and Persians for proof of this self-evident, biblical truth. To espouse the Jewish worldview is to adhere to the false doctrine of Antichrist. This is why the Jews are trying so hard to get Christians and Muslims to revile and murder one another. We cannot allow the Jews to get away with this ideological warfare. Christians and Muslims can coexist; Hitler believed this to be an absolute necessity for a truly socialist and prosperous world. He willed to form a coalition of United Arian and Arab states that would coexist harmoniously, serving as a united entity, in order to check Jewish power for all time (Wag, 170-174). Since Jesus never condemned Arabs, or their beliefs, and Hitler greatly respected the Arabs, I will not, and can not, allow myself to believe otherwise. To be quite honest, and I really mean this, I would rather live in a fundamentalist Islamic Republic, and wear a burka, than live in a despondent Jewish world of debauchery, misery, murder, drugs, prostitution, normlessness, joblessness, homelessness, needless warfare, chaos, racism, hatred, oppression of freedom and religion, and despair. There is no way I will ever support a war with Iran; I will offer up my body as a shield for Ahmad before I will fight and die for a Jew. How could any true and honorable Christian fight and die on behalf of the people who murdered Christ and Hitler? That, to me, is the single greatest sin of all time.
Hitler had also stated, “My feelings as a Christian point me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter…to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized the Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God’s truth! Was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. How terrific was his fight for the world against the Jewish poison…As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have a duty to be a fighter for truth and justice…For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people” (Baynes, p. 19-20). Jesus had stated, “No one comes to the Father but through me” (John 14:6). So, one cannot come to the Father through the so-called Jewish “Messiah,” as even St. John had said, “Those who deny the Christ deny the Father” (1 John 2:23). Jews deny the Christ. Hitler failed to do so. So, how can Hitler possibly be an/the Antichrist? This requires complete qualification, which will undoubtedly result in the confirmation that Jewry is the Antichrist. What kind of Christian questions what Jesus said, anyway? Jesus warned against both “false teachers” and “new teachers” (1 John 2:18-27). This means that the entire priesthood of the Christian religion is not following Christ’s teachings; every single one of them is at fault. Jesus said, via St. John, “And as for you let the anointing which you have received from Him, dwell in you, and you have NO NEED that ANYONE teach you” (1 John 2:27) [emphasis added]. Jesus is the only one that the true Christians follow; therefore, Hitler was a true Christian; he did not allow the false Christian priesthood to teach or tell him otherwise, because he followed Christ; Christ, alone.
