Read this, if you believe the Holocaust was a hoax…

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, I COME ACROSS SOMEONE WHO INSISTS THE HOLOCAUST WAS A HOAX. So … I always use the opportunity to tell them my own, personal experience that proves them wrong:

In 2004, I visited an old acquaintance, Eva Falch (who was in her seventies at the time) in my hometown in Northern Germany. Eva was my mother's best friend throughout their entire childhood and early adulthood, and I wanted to let her know that my mother had died back in 1975, at age 45.

Anyway, while reminiscing around her dining room table over a cup of coffee, Eva mentioned that she had been a secretary at the nearby Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp during the war ... at which point I asked her if she ever knew that my mother was Jewish.

Well, you could have heard a pin drop as Eva visibly stiffened at the news, and tossed me a hard, defiant look! “What do you mean, ‘Jewish’,” she said in low, very hateful tones. “Lonny wasn’t JEWISH!”

(While my mother and maternal grandmother hadn’t been "practicing Jews,” they passed themselves off as Roman Catholic, and no one ever questioned it. Regardless, my mother was fairly traumatized during the war, and throughout her short life on earth, she constantly warned my brothers and me to "never tell anybody you're Jewish, because they KILL Jews!")

Suffice it to say, my visit with Eva was suddenly brought to a screeching halt, as she basically “went ballistic” when I attempted to assure her that my mother certainly WAS a Jew. This news seemed to be truly upsetting and devastating for her.

The possibility that her best childhood friend (with whom she had marched in Hitler Youth Parades and competed to with to win the love of Hardis, who ultimately chose Eva as his wife) had been a "Judin" was obviously too much to bear, and I could literally feel the raw rage aimed at me. I was absolutely shocked at her reaction!

Needless to say, our visit was cut short because, after that “devastating” revelation, Eva clearly wanted nothing more to do with me. (Some older Germans, even to this day, still HATE the Jews. They still believe all the anti-Jewish propaganda that had been drummed into them from every angle.)

Be that as it may, I’m here to say the Holocaust was definitely real, and anyone who thinks it was a hoax is deluded!

During our European honeymoon, my then-husband and I visited both Bergen-Belsen (where Eva had worked as a secretary) and Dachau near Munich - and the feeling you get while strolling through those camps, and watching the old gut-wrenching documentaries and seeing photos and items belonging to some of the prisoners, is something you'll NEVER forget, because you can literally FEEL the heaviness there!

So, “conspiracy theorists” and other smart alecks are free to “believe” whatever they want – but they will NEVER be able to change actual history! The Holocaust happened. That crazed lunatic Hitler tried to annihilate YHWH’s People – and LOST the battle!

How do I know this? Because ADONAI was using Hitler during WWII, to bring about TWO of His end times prophecies: That Israel would be reborn and it would happen in one day (Isaiah 66:7-8). The woman giving birth before going into labor represents Israel - which accurately describes what happened on May 14, 1948 - when "the world" briefly felt sorry for the Jews and returned Israel to them and they were able to declare independence for Israel as a united and sovereign nation for the first time in 2,900 years.

During that same day, the United States issued a statement recognizing Israel's sovereignty. And, only hours beforehand, a United Nations mandate expired, ending British control of the land. During a 24-hour span of time, foreign control of the land of Israel had formally ceased, and Israel had declared its independence, and its independence was acknowledged by other nations. Modern Israel was literally was born in a single day!

Furthermore, Isaiah said the birth would take place before there would be labor pains. And that too is precisely what happened. A movement called Zionism began in the 1800s to encourage Jews worldwide to move to Israel, which at that time was called Palestine. Within hours of the declaration of independence in 1948, Israel was attacked by the surrounding countries of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

When reading Isaiah 66:7-8, keep in mind that Israel's status as a sovereign nation was established and reaffirmed during the course of a single day, and that it was born of a movement called Zionism, and that its declaration of independence was not the result of a war but rather the cause of one.

Yes, YHWH is in charge, and He said that those who hate Israel and the Jews will have a lot to answer for:

Genesis 12:3 - "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." (CJB)
