RELIGION IN GERMANY.
Protest Against "Nazification’ Press Association—Copyright. Berlin, March 28. Easter brought protests from both Protestants and Catholics against the “Nazification” of religion. The fact that many evangelical pattors were still imprisoned Was revealed in a message issued by the leaders of the Confessional movement, which opposed the Nazification of the Evangelical Church. The message commends brothers and sisters In the concentration camps and the prisons to God. It refers to pastors and churchgoers expelled from their parishes, where the Word of God can no longer be prelached, and states that laymen must carry on the work unafraid, though threatened with persecution.
“We do not belong to the same church as those who regard a political philosophy as a force leading to salvation,” the message adds.
