Remembering Corrie ten Boom and the Jews
New American Prophet ^ | November 14, 2024 | Dr. Jerry Newcombe

World War II ended almost 80 years ago, and yet, amazingly, Jews are being persecuted in some parts of Europe in earnest again.

CNN reports on last week’s clash in Holland after a sports event: that Israeli soccer fans were beaten and injured in violent clashes..”

Now Israel is warning Jews in Europe even against attending cultural and sports events.

The Wall Street Journal adds this wrinkle to the story since Jews were chased down the street and beaten (for being Jews): “The Israeli government said it was sending planes to the Netherlands to evacuate its citizens.”

The organizer for the riots was a former UNRWA teacher.

The event becomes an excuse to regulate free speech. They want to cancel and incarcerate their opponents with charges of “incitement to hatred.” They have not arrested any of the rioters.

Ahh, “The Hiding Place” - one of a handful of “impact” books I read during my first year as a follower of Christ.

They glorify the people who fought against the Nazis but they ostracize people who speak against Islam.

Corrie ten Boom spoke at my Cousin’s church way back in the 70’s, and the church had neglected to set up accomadations for dinner.

So my cousin invited her and spent the whole day and evening with her.

She was an amazing Lady!

Mr. GG2 had the luck to meet Corrie Ten Boom when he traveled with a Christian group throughout Europe assembling Guttenberg printing presses and driving their vehicles back in the early 70’s.

She took a liking to him and he has told me of many pleasant hours sitting in her home drinking tea. He said she was a fascinating person.
