There's a Reason German Adventists' Resistance During World War II Isn't Well-Known

 During World War Two, while most of Europe looked away, a secret network of Seventh-day Adventist Christians built one of the most sophisticated escape routes in occupied Europe—and almost no one knows about it. The Dutch-Paris line saved over 1,000 Jewish lives by hiding refugees in church basements, forging documents in Adventist print shops, and guiding families through frozen Alpine passes into Switzerland. This is the untold story of ordinary believers who chose faith over fear, risking torture and execution to stand between the Gestapo and its victims.  

Adventist Churches in Germany appeared to some to be less than openly resistant to Nazi outrages. I had even heard it said that some pastors said they compromised because they thought it was important that the Adventist churches remained open or they couldn't do their good works. What we did not know until fairly recently and for some reason was not talked about in SDA circles was that Adventists were actively working to smuggle Jews out of Germany to escape the holocaust. God bless them.
