Bolsheviks and Life under Communism
This is the second in a three part series of Partner content expanding on and engaging with comments on Chester Weaver’s lecture about Mennonite Nazis. The Bolshevik story for Mennonites is older and better documented than the story of Mennonites and Nazis. Some commenters on YouTube seemed to want to justify Nazism because of the horrors of Bolshevism. Chester replies that this is a failure to understand the Kingdom of Christ. Most of the story is suffering under communism, but in Nazi Germany much of the story was collusion.
