		The Barmen Declaration, 1934, was a call to resistance against the theological claims of the Nazi state.

	Confessing Church of Germany provides lessons for PCUSA today - 5/18/01
		Contrary to some opinion, the Theological Declaration of Barmen was not essentially a polemic against the government under Adolf Hitler, but was a response to German Christians whose accommodation to culture and "heretical teaching" distorted their commitment to Christ, Scripture and their own confessions.
		"Barmen is, at one and the same time, the promulgation of a miracle discovering a new unity and the announcement of a separation on principle from heretical teaching," Mauser wrote.
		Mauser said Barmen is carefully framed: first with a statement of Scripture, second with a positive, doctrinal statement and third with a corresponding rejection.

	Christian Century: Transcending Barmen: confessing in word and deed - Barmen Declaration, Barmen, Germany - includes ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		When we read the Barmen Declaration we hear not only the church's voice in 1934, but its silence at Barmen and throughout the Third Reich--about the Jews and others who in May 1934 were already the victims of Nazi persecution.
		Yet its radicalism is based precisely upon a claim that would seem to be the least radical in a political sense: the claim that all truth is revealed in the word of God in the scriptures, and that each Christian is ultimately accountable to his or her God.
		But the radicalism of the church at Barmen was that it refused to align itself with any leader, government or ideology, instead committing Christians to a fundamental, confessionally based opposition to any demand that deviated from the principles of Christian belief.

	BARMEN AT 70
		Among these are the ideologies of "secular humanism." When the Church lets its faith be defined by the findings of social and other sciences, or when it follows after psychologies of self-indulgence, myths of progress, and philosophies which place humanity at the center of the universe, it is denying its Lord.
		Barmen also rejects the militarism that was at that time overtaking Germany, with disastrous results for the whole world a decade later.
		Barmen teaches us that we only face them successfully and faithfully when we confessionally criticize our own desires, tastes, dreams, loyalties, and self-righteousness, and instead keep Jesus Christ firmly in the center.

		The Barmen Declaration was the work of this group, written at its initial synod in Barmen in May 1934.
		It is one of the shortcomings of the Barmen Declaration that its creators did not see clearly what was already happening to Jews in Germany, and thus failed to address the most obscene of all of Hitler’s policies.
		Barmen’s claim is that there is only “one Word of God which we have to hear, and which we have to trust and obey in life and in death.” For Christians, that Word is Jesus Christ.

	Response to Moderator - Viewpoint by James R. Edwards - September 26, 2001
		There is no reference either in the preamble to Barmen or in the Declaration itself, which is the foundational document and expression of the Confessing Church, to Hitler (or the Führer) or to Nazis (or National Socialism).
		Against this confusion and corruption of the gospel by its accommodation to a prevailing cultural ethos, Barmen raised a battle cry that Jesus Christ is "the one Word of God," the sole source of both divine revelation and authority in the church.
		Barmen confesses that church unity must begin with unity of confession, not with organization and administrative unity, and not with the attempt to include every possible viewpoint.

	The Lesson of True Freedom in the Barmen Declaration
		To Dietrich Bonhoeffer the freedom of the Church is that which it has when it is obedient to the word of God, the freedom which the Church has even when its preachers are put in prison.
		The ideology which the Barmen Declaration sought to unmask and to reject was the ideology of nation and race and blood.
		The ideology we have to recognize, unmask, and reject is an ideology of freedom, a false and idolatrous conception of freedom which equates it with the freedom of each individual to do as he or she wishes.

	The Protestant churches in Nazi Germany
		Free synods appear to have been organized primarily to protest the dictatorial acts of the Reich bishop, and to protect the purity of the churches' doctrine as stated in the Old and New Testament and summarized in the Lutheran and Reformed confessions of the Reformation.

		The Nazi regime also realized the importance of Barmen: the publication of the declaration led to attacks by the secret police which confiscated the text throughout the country and threatened concentration camp sentences for those who possessed a copy.

		The Barmen Theological Declaration, drafted in 1934 during a troubled period within the Church, has taken on a significance which goes far beyond the conditions of its origin.
		For this reason, the Barmen theses are in favour of the positive ideological neutrality of the State.
		In particular in the light of the fact that the Barmen Theological Declaration sees itself as an interpretation of Holy Scripture and its very existence is owed to the context of a struggle within the Church, critical questions are legitimate.

		Even fewer Americans are aware that the Barmen Declaration was not so much a critique of Hitler’s policies as it was an alarm sounded against the usurpation of power and authority in the church by the “German Christian” movement.
		In producing the Barmen Declaration, they hoped to prick the consciences of their fellow churchmen, bring them back to their senses, and return the Body of Christ to its allegiance to Jesus Christ, the Word of God.
		I trust the Barmen Declaration might have the same effect when it is encountered today.
