Dietrich Bonhoeffer was hung naked by the Nazis when he was 39 years old. Below is a clip from the final scene of a movie about him.
Soon enough, Nazis or not, it will be our turn. Because Christ has freed us from our fear of death, we can do as well (Hebrews 2:14-15).
Justin Taylor points to a new Bonhoeffer biography. I have already ordered it.
Amazing. To him he was dying in obscurity, but 65 years later there is a movie about him and his commitment to Christ, along with a book. More importantly, he will be resurrected to eternal life at the return of the Lord Jesus. May we all die as well as he, and those who have gone before.
Paul – – your comment is helpful to me personally. Thank you for that observation.
Powerful words from both of you, Chris and Paul.
Yes. May we all die as well as he.
