Paul Schneider

<p><em>Paul Schneider realized that salvation lay not in the false choices of right or left but in obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ. </em>- Franklin Sanders from the Translator's Introduction</p><p>Pastor Schneider's kind shepherding endeared him to every congregation he served. But as he walked quietly in his own calling he watched his dear Germany march in goose-step into the arms of a godless new regime. When the Nazis came to teach the Bride of Christ how she ought to behave in this modern Germany they stubbed their toes on this pastor in the Rhineland. Schneider would not <em>heil</em> their naked paganism which cannot agree with the Christian faith. He diligently made himself a thorn in Hitler's side and rallied the true Church as long as he had breath to call out Scripture.</p><p>Too few stories of faithfulness like his arise from the Nazi years in Germany. In 1967 Rudolf Wentorf preserved his story in German using testimonies from Schneider's friends family and personal diary. In 1993 Franklin Sanders brought that testimony to English-speaking Christians. Nogginnose Press presents this new edition to ensure that future generations gratefully remember Paul Schneider's bold witness-and final sacrifice.</p><p>They silenced his tongue but not his witness. And Paul Schneider has much to say to us today.</p>
