Bible Question:
I was with a seventeen year old boy today who has found Jesus.
We were talking and eventually he said that Hitler was a
Catholic! I asked him where he heard that and he said in
the New Testament. Did I miss something? Was Hilter a Catholic?
If so, where might I find this in history? I never heard
this before and I am fifty years of age.
Bible Answer:
Hilter's name does not occur anywhere in the Bible.
It is not found in the Old Testament (written in Hebrew) or
in New Testament (written in Greek).
But there are those who say it can be found in language coded
in the Bible.
Bible Codes.
Michael Drosnin authored a book entitled "The Bible Code." The
author believes that the Bible contains hidden messages which
have been unlocked by a computer. These hidden codes allegedly
foretell the future. The author says that Hilter's name is
coded into the letters of the Bible. This may be what the young
adult was referring to.

" The Bible Code," tells us that the name Hitler was found along side
the term "evil man," and beside it the words, "Nazi, Germany,
Berlin, slaughter," even "Eichmann" was found embedded with the
terms, "the ovens" and "extermination.

But there are some serious problems in believing that the Bible
has hidden codes. The major problem is that God never tells
us that there are hidden codes. Why would God give us a Bible
and never reveal that there are hidden codes in the words
He wrote? Second, the method used to find these secret statements
will result in finding almost anything the researcher wants
to find. Here is a passage from a web site of an author who
did just that. He went looking to see what he could find.

The promoters of hidden-message claims say, "How
could such amazing coincidences be the product of random
chance?" I think the real question should be, "How
could such coincidences not be the inevitable product
of a huge sequence of trials on a large, essentially
random database?" Once I learned how to navigate
in puzzle-space, finding "incredible" predictions
became a routine affair. I found "comet,"
"Hale," and "Bopp" linked in KJV Genesis, along with "forty" and "died," which
could be interpreted as an obvious reference to Heaven's Gate. I found "Trinity,"
"Los Alamos,"
"atom," and "bomb" encoded together in Edwards, in a section
containing references to "security,"
"test," and "anti-fascist." And I found "Hitler" linked
to "Nazi" dozens of times in several books. When I set out to engineer
a "hidden code" link of "code" and "bogus" in KJV
Genesis, I was able to produce sixty closely linked pairs. And every single one
of these pairs could fit inside a reasonably sized puzzle.

Hilter A Catholic.
Yes, Hilter was a Catholic according to historians. But apparently, Hitler
was not a very good one
.
John Cornwell, the author of the book entitled
Hitler's Pope: The Secret History of Pius XII
, claims that the Roman Catholic Pope Pius XII even supported
Hitler during World War II.
Conclusion:
Hitler apparently knew about Jesus Christ but never believed
in Him
. One can live like a Christian and yet never be one. But Hitler
did not even live like a Christian unless he turned to God
in the final days or moments of his life.
