Christianity, Christ and the Nazis

[Explorer21]

In the book "The Spear of Destiny" (1973) by Trevor Ravenscroft, it says, "It is a common error to believe that the powers of evil do not themselves recognise the divinity of Christ. The very reverse is the truth. Goethe, well aware that this is so, illustrated the true relationship between Good and Evil in the Prologue to "Faust," in which he stages a dramatic meeting and discussion between the Lord and the Devil.
Goethe's Mephistopheles, an admixture of both Lucifer and Ahriman because the poet was unable to distinguish between these two different types of evil, grudgingly admits himself to be a subservient member of God's retinue with a special task within it to tempt man to oppose the divine order in the world.
It is in this sense that the innermost circle of Nazidom were self-confessed satanists. These men, who were dedicated to the service of evil, were very far removed from the lukewarm congregations of the Christian churches who are barely able to convince themselves of the reality of anything other than a material existence.
Adolf Hitler recognised the divinity of Christ with the same inner certainty characteristic of medieval saints like Francis of Assisi. But Hitler hated Christ and felt only scorn and contempt for all Christian aims and ideals.
The Nazi Party rightly scorned the Christian churches---both Catholic and Reform Churches---for their insistence that Christianity is superior to all other religions because it was entirely free from all Mythology. They correctly assessed that the strictured and unimaginative theology of contemporary Churchmen, dominated by a pathetic mixture of cartesian intellect and superstitious faith in dogma, was totally incapable of comprehending how the Christianity of the (Holy) Grail and the Revelation is the very climax and fulfilment of all mythology."
