Pacifist TGC Writer Says The World Should Have Let Hitler and Nazis Conquer Unopposed

Andrew Wilson is a frequent contributor to the Gospel Coalition. He’s also the teaching pastor at King’s Church, London and the author of God of All Things: Rediscovering the Sacred in an Everyday World. During his “Good Faith Debate’ with Bob Thune on ‘How should Christians think about gun control and the right to bear arms?” Wilson, who is an extreme pacifist, claimed that the the world should not have opposed Hitler militarily, but rather should have let him conquer the world. He explains:

Question: In World War II, from what I understand reading of history, one of the Axis powers were very concerned about how in the world you would invade the United States, because of how many private citizens owned guns and ammunition. How is that part of the debate land with you?

Wilson: Yeah, I think World War II is that the closest thing we have to a a genuine war of good against evil. I think most wars in history you’d probably say ‘Ahhh ,You know, there’s bad men on both sides, there’s good men on both sides.’

I think when you have Hitler and Nazism wanted to steamroll everybody, you’d go ‘Okay, that’s it. I think we’re as close as we can be to saying that’s a very, very bad man, and a lot of very, very bad things are gonna happen if he’s in charge.’

So as that sense it follows us, it’s like the reductio ad absurdum of the pacifist position. And I think you as a pacifist you, you basically swallow it and you say, ‘Yeah, that might mean Britain been invaded…I might now be speaking German, maybe.’

I think the world would be- I’d have to trust the providence of God, I have to, I have to ultimately say ‘this is exactly what Romans 12 is doing. So you don’t do these things. because vengeance is mine, is mine to repay.”

…I think if you read the Sermon on the Mount and say ‘what does this say I should do with Hitler?’  You’d go ‘yeah I think that means, you might have to say I don’t resist’. And and at that point you might say ‘oh that’s cowardice.’…I actually think that takes a lot of courage to hold that position.

…So I don’t it sounds very weird in our world to say, ‘let Hitler invade’, you know, ‘bring it on’, and trust it to God.

  2. It’s not that the good guys always win, it’s that the winners are always “good guys”.

    And as the west descends into immorality and we return to the transgender perversion pioneered in the Weimar Republic, we can take comfort in the fact that “at least we’re not speaking German”.

  3. Broke: It’s a good thing we stopped Hitler, else we’d all be speaking German!
    Woke: We shouldn’t have stopped Hitler because Jesus would’ve turned the other cheek.
    Bespoke: We shouldn’t have stopped Hitler because he would’ve put an end to all this degeneracy that, for some mysterious reason, always and everywhere, whether it’s 1920s Germany or 2020s America, is cheerled, funded, and otherwise organized at vastly disproportionate rates by people whose names end with -berg, -witz, -baum-, and -stein.

  4. My reformed pastor told me Ukraine is the ultimate Good Guy, specifically their Jewish leader, and Putin is the new Hitler. We need WW3. The Bible says so. 🇮🇱🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

  5. My reformed ex pastor (we left), prayed for God to help us develop a
    covid 19 vaccine. Then he spoke against Christian Nationalism right after taking a PPP loan from the government for the church budget.

  8. We had to do something. We were trying to be isolationists until our own country was attacked. Meanwhile, Hitler wanted the world. We wouldn’t just be speaking German; we would be euthanizing and forcing abortions on our disabled, we would only work for “the State,” all Jewish people would be murdered, and the constitution would be destroyed.
