Edith Stein

 Edith Stein

Pope John Paul II described individuals who persevered with faith despite the difficulties and adversities. There are individuals that persevered in their zealous faith and obtained eternal salvation. We learn that there were individuals that were persecuted because of their faith in the 1940s who obtained eternal salvation. Pope John Paul II described how despite adversity, individuals were able to persevere without doubting their faith. Maximillian Kolbe and Edith Stein were two individuals that were martyred because of the envy of the nazi socialists under Hitler, and yet did not renounce their faith. We learn that individuals including Dietrich Bonhoeffer were persecuted yet obtained eternal salvation. We know that Hitler would destroy himself due to his cowardice and did not live to old age. 

We learn from the Sacred Scriptures that there are individuals that obtained their eternal salvation and lived to long life while there were also individuals that were persecuted. We learn that regardless, we can persevere with eternal salvation in King Jesus Christ. We know that the most important point is eternal salvation in King Jesus Christ. Despite adversity, there are examples of righteous individuals who did not deny their faith in King Jesus Christ. We learn that in the worship of GOD Almighty, we have everything that we need.

Having zealous faith allows us to persevere and not have negative emotions describing fear, envy, doubts, and discouragements. We can choose to persevere with courage and valor in the worship of GOD Almighty. We learn that Christianity is preached and will keep being preached in the end times. Zeal allows us to know that our self-worth is in the worship of GOD Almighty and not in external temporary things. We learn that while there may be persecution, we can see the positive of everything. If we have to keep preaching, then we have to keep preaching. If there is martyrdom, then individuals get eternal salvation and are reunited with GOD Almighty. This wisdom prevents us from being discouraged knowing that we are created to live in Shabbath Millennium and New Jerusalem for all eternity. 

We are able to see the positive of everything knowing that this life is a test to know who do we worship. Do we worship GOD Almighty or not? Do we prefer the Creator and LORD of all or not? We are able to understand that we can not anchor ourselves to the temporary things of this life and instead choose eternal salvation in King Jesus Christ. Maximillian Kolbe and Edith Stein were persecuted yet did not renounce her faith. We learn to choose GOD Almighty above everything. 

Edith Stein Was Persecuted by Hitler

Edith Stein was a German Catholic nun who was also of Jewish descent. Hitler persecuted German individuals including Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Anne Marie Frank, and Albert Einstein who were all German. This describes the discrepency of how nazi socialism does not care about Germans. Hitler was not even German yet persecuted Germans. Despite Edith Stein being German and a Catholic, Hitler persecuted Stein because of her Jewish ethnicity. Stein was more German than Hitler, yet Hitler still persecuted Stein and other Germans who were more German than Hitler. Stein did not fear and kept her faith throughout her life. Stein never renounced her faith in King Jesus Christ despite persecution.  

This describes the discrepency about how socialists say that socialism is about "utilitarianism and equality". Socialism is about inequality and inegalitarianism based on idol worship. Hitler also persecuted Christians and Catholics because Hitler was an idol worshiper. This was because Catholics and Christians refused to be indoctrinated into temporary lies and deceit. True Christians do not hate others and instead create peace and harmony. Hitler persecuted individuals who were pacifists and also German while not being German nor a Christian. Hitler was not a Christian and may also not have been German either. Despite the envy, Stein obtained eternal salvation while Hitler died of suicide and is in Sheol.
