| Summary: | The rise of the Nazi Party, with Hitler at the center of power, brought profound changes to Germany in the 1930s. The Nazis persecuted various groups in a period marked by policies aimed at carrying out massacres in mass, causing the population to live with the deaths on a daily basis. The analysis from historical sources of the Seventh-day Adventist Church Manual, reports in the Adventist Magazine and Adventist News Network, as well as books by Adventist authors and the church's fundamental beliefs, allow us to reflect how some leaders and members of this church acted in the midst of the horror, when all beliefs are called into question. The study of Adventists opens possibilities to reflect on the role and influence of Christian churches in a regime aimed at death, such as Hitler's, as memories of the period one-day knock on their doors, forcing them to explain what they did or not did in these times. |
