Hitler gave no indication of his hidden character of narcissism and god like superiority, even thinking he should have the right of life or death over groups of people. The clues were there but the people didn't notice because they were lacking discernment, blinded by their own desires and needs. Instead of turning to God for guidance they were looking for a human leader.
When a nation is focused on safety, prosperity and freedom, they are blinded to the lack of moral character that someone like Hitler displays. He hid it so well, had all the right words, was charismatic and well spoken with boldness. Hitler's hidden self was the monster that he became, it did not evolve because he came to power, it was there all along waiting for the opportunity to become strong enough to assert itself.
He had a philosophy, if one tells a big enough lie, enough times, the people will believe it no matter how absurd it may sound. And you think we could not have a Hitler among us or that if we did we would not believe him?
When he began to do his dastardly deeds most of the German people turned a blind eye to it, while some claimed they did not know what was going on.
Do you really think they did not know something was amiss when their Jewish friends and neighbors began to disappear? News in our town travels faster than lightening speed, and yet in these towns in Germany no one seemed to notice something strange going on, without inquiring of anyone!? They didn't notice the strange smells of burning flesh from the ovens and no one said anything if they did?
There were those who knew, we know this because some of the people hid the Jews to protect them. If some knew, then many others if not most knew.
Unfortunately there may be many people in this country who will turn a blind eyes when the Christians begin to disappear. They will explain the disappearance away without inquiry, even listen to lies and rumors as to why they no longer live next door.
If you think this country would not believe a monstrous lie, remember abortion, half of the country if not more than half believe that the unborn should not have rights to life. Just one generation ago nearly everyone had the desire to protect babies.
More than half of the country has bought into the lie that we should not judge anyone, these same people love their sin, refuse to repent and are so self absorbed they are ready for any good sounding lie that will waltz through their lives promising them the moon.
Evil in our country is not even hidden or covert, it is right out there in the streets for all to see and yet it is still defended for the cause of love, the false love that is not love at all but an excuse to ignore sin to be accepted by the culture.
And someone might think they would not believe deception or lies? Think again. This country has believed so many lies it is impossible to count them all. And yet they believe they could not be deceived by another Hitler type?
Think about it!
