THE CHURCH AND REVOLUTION

In the Jirst part of his paper, Professor Wendland sketched the development of the concept of revolution; political, social and total. He examined in some detail the opposition between the Marxist concept of absolute revolution and the view of Stahl that all revolutions are contrary to the will of God. He looked at the nature of the National Socialist revolution in Germany and identged the inadequacy of the response of the “Co fessing Church” to that revolution.
