The Holocaust

The Holocaust also known as haShoah, is the term generally used to describe the genocide of approximately six million European Jews during World War II, as part of a program of deliberate extermination planned and executed by Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler.

The Holocaust is a graphic example of the corruption, depravity and sinfulness of man.

Most of the videos and photos I researched concerning the Holocaust were too graphic and disturbing to include here. I also do not wish to go into graphic detail here, to describe all the horrendous and shocking things that occurred. Therefore I shall merely include some links below. Please note that some of the below websites contain disturbing photos.

Corrie Ten Boom

Cornelia Johanna Arnolda ten Boom, generally known as Corrie ten Boom, (April 15, 1892 – April 15, 1983) was a Dutch Christian Holocaust survivor who helped many Jews escape the Nazis during World War II. Corrie co-wrote her autobiography, "The Hiding Place," which was later made into a movie of the same name.

She spent time in a Nazi Concentration Camp. Her sister died in that camp. Corrie survived, and years later, she saw one of the Nazi guards who had tortured her and others. He had become a Christian, and, through the power of the Holy Spirit and the forgiveness that comes through knowing Jesus Christ, Corrie and her former Nazi guard embraced each other, and she forgave him.
