Nightcrawler is a true Christian and great role model.
Kurt Wagner aka Nightcrawler, face of a demon but the heart & soul of an angel
Praise Jesus. And God bless Kurt.
He’s Catholic but yes he is a great role
Model
Catholics and Christians share the same same God. I see no reason we can't see each other as role models to be better disciples of God. @@チャーリーブラウン-w8l
Seeing this was very crucial. And 86 likes. Year I was born. Maybe a sign, maybe not. Message I really needed.
"What kind of God would let men do this to me?"
"Men may have done it, but God gave you the chance to use it for good, to stop men such as them. He turned an act of evil into a force against it."
it was a nice deflection but not a real answer
Powerful words.

@@rightguy200000 Just like what you said earlier
Logan went on that trip seeking a demon, and instead found God.
Deep 🌺
And that "demon" became one of his best friends
I maybe an Atheist, but that’s actually pretty dope.
Well said!
This went from X-Men to A-Men!
Thank u X-men was progressive never woke. A woke X-Men would never do this!
One of my favorite comments of all time. Amen!
Awesome comment
As an Atheist, that’s pretty dope.
I see❤
“He never actually said so.. but I think he made his peace with God.”
Lt. Dan approves.

Best portrayal of religion. Go 90s X-Men
And they didn't sugarcoat it.
not religion but being a follower of christ, a christian
@@yanduro3434 True. Following Christ is more than just a religion. To me it’s true life. Amazing to meet a fellow Christian
That's a lie! The Catholic Church is number one...false religion!
@@omarcogle1965 Really? The Catholic Church is the worst , of so called Christians!
This shows us why nightcrawler will be at Logan’s side till the end of the line
I love their friendship and can’t wait to see them in the MCU
@@OGreenWorId More than friendship, Wolverine fucked him.
@@solblackguy True but idk if I trust the MCU to actually go through with romance
@@OGreenWorId who said it was romance?
@@solblackguy I did
"God gave up on us a long time ago."
A 90s kids cartoon based off a superhero comic is perhaps the last place I'd expect to hear that.
Says the same guy who in a previous episode said that there is nothing wrong with mutants.
This type of philosophy in a cartoon will not fly today.
Sad but true...
So true...nowadays its about letting kids mutilate their bodies just cause they want to💔
@@Anaconda-squeeze Except for DC Animation now, they had something in Justice League that animated series and Young Justice.
@@Anaconda-squeeze How so?
Don't letbe so dismissive.

Amen
Amen 🙏
I have forgotten the Hollywood at one time used to respect the Lord Jesus Christ I miss the 90s
You think that the 90’s were a wholesome time ffs
Respect is earned, not automatic.
And our country which gives them the freedom to do what they do.
Lol your pussy-ass god is so weak it needs hollywood to respect it or its crybaby snowflake followers get triggered
The X-Men cartoon was made in Canada.
No one is obliged to endorse your illusions.
Stop whinging.
I'm an atheist but that didn't get in the way of me enjoying the heck out of this episode. Nightcrawler is such a fascinating character. An unholy looking man who found comfort with himself through faith despite others of the same beliefs hating him for his appearance and abilities. I appreciate how nuanced it was, especially for the 90s. Believing in the same God didn't make the others justified in their prejudice. All men and women alike are capable of being the monsters they think they're fighting against no matter what they believe in. I also LOVE how he lightened Wolverine's bitterness. Logan has been delt a bad hand but Nightcrawler made it possible for him to finally have a moment of peace and come to appreciate life in a more positive way.
I respect how objective you can be about this. Sadly, it really is a reflection on real life human history. Even the same faith could not bring people of different skin color together.
One of the most positive depictions of Christianity I've ever seen and it's in a 90s cartoon. But in all seriousness, the first time I saw this episode, I was honestly surprised and touched at how deep they made Nightcrawler.
I love this scene because of all the diversity. Gambit isn’t down with it, Wolverine doesn’t want to go back, and Kurt is devote. It really is something special
And what about rogue
@@Cerdo_asqueroso it appears she plays a secondary role in the episode as an onlooker. She presumably is nudging Remy to be respectful, at least.
@@Cerdo_asquerosoRogue at the end of this Episode see’s Logan in the church praying and she sheds a tear. She plays the “straight woman” in this episode, but ultimately rejects Gambit’s philosophy and emotionally connects to Logan’s seeking after God
In the comics Gambit is a Catholic.
@@jonharrison9222 yep. in the comic, it's Gambit who goes to this path after rejecting religion for similar reasons as Logan, but after finding an angel, he returns to the faith. He's later acknowledging his Catholic heritage many times.
What I like most about this is how it not only respects Nightcrawlers beliefs in the Lord, but also brings forward the negative things people have done too.
Nightcrawler isn't dismissive when Logan calls out all the bad things, but rather acknowledges it and how he felt but he chooses to be better and set the better example.
Good and respectful writing!
I believe this is something that is extremely absent within the modern day Christian including myself, the humbling of our souls so that patience & and love can flow through our words when we speak to non believers even when they are angry & when they offend us
@@asuas3115 amen.
It’s good to have zealousness for the Lord but not so much it looks like blind hate.
@@bauer0788Amen 🙏🏼 Zeal without knowledge as it is written 🩸✝️💗🕊️
"Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved.
For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes."
Romans 10:1-4 NKJV
@@asuas3115 I agree. It appears to me that church goers often conveniently (and completely) forget about Scriptures like Matthew 7:1 and Luke 6:24, which basically say the same thing (don't go judging others and calling them sinners when you're just as much a sinner as they are). Those are two of my favorite Scriptures because they remind me that it's all well and good that I'm a man of faith, but shoving it on others and acting like I'm better than them for having faith is not acceptable. This is why Christians have a bad reputation with secular folks, because we often bring it on ourselves by being more judgmental and closed minded than we're supposed to be and why I don't go to church, because that mentality really bothers me and I'd rather avoid it to maintain my sanity.
This shows that in the early nineties the entertainment industry was not a complete moral and spiritual wasteland. What a great portrayal of religion. I was a fan of the 1990s X-Men series. When I saw this episode I was very impressed.
Wasteland is believing in something as real as the tooth fairy.
It's a free nation to believe what you want. In America at least.
You mean like a country where socialism works and has a positive impact? :) The tooth fairy is more likely to be real that THAT! :D
@@Deciheximal wasteland is believing it's reasonable to ruin an actor or a writers carrier and social life just because they have a different political opinion than you . and that's what the modern western entertainment industry is all about.
@@abdalrrahim SJW-minded hunters are bad. Religion is even more predatory.
Stan Lee told us exactly what this world needed to heal from bad things.
Actually the writer who popularized the X-Men especially the new international members was Chris Claremont. John Byrne was also a great writer who developed these characters as well. Stan Lee got the wheel turning but these two masters of storytelling created and shaped the beloved characters and their characterization you see here.
Stan Lee was raised in a Jewish household but was an agnostic
If by "Stan Lee" you mean "Chris Claremont", sure.
Now this is just my opinion but if you listen very closely you will notice that Nightcrawler leads Logan not just to the Lord but rather he leads him “Back” to the Lord. For Logan did say he used to buy into all that meaning “Faith” and thanks to Nightcrawler’s guidance Logan was able to find his way back to the Lord.
Yes. By Logan’s words he used to be a Christian but grew bitter toward God til Nightcrawler lead him back
@@lix7698 Honestly, a lot of times I wish we still had tv shows / movies like this 1 episode. I am a Catholic myself. Plz forgive me if it sounds like I am bragging but I am a volunteer at my Church and I really enjoy being able to serve in the house of the Lord, and I gladly thank the Lord God for giving me the opportunity to do so. In any case, God bless the world.
@@omacron5 literally I remember seeing this one as a child and it was very interesting to watch. They’d never make anything like this today. And don’t worry, it doesn’t sound pious. I’m Protestant but I appreciate and respect anyone who devotes their service to the work of the church and honoring God
God bless all our Brothers and Sisters in Christ
God bless you, also.
One of the reasons why I love Nightcrawler, he is such good soul who’s trying to live peacefull life despite his demonic appearance.
Demonic appearance? Just how would anyone know what a demon looks like? Oh let me guess... Hollywood? Some red guy with horns on its head? Or some black guy?
When cartoons were cartoons.. I love and miss you 80s and 90s TV
Me too!!
Me too
Me 3
Those were the days.
And even outside of religious beliefs, this is such a powerful episode for Logan.
A man who thought of himself as a killer and bitter war machine for decades on end….prayed.
When Wolverine mentioned how long he lived and puts his head down in shame mentioning that he did too much, it really sums up Wolverine’s character. He’s not ashamed of being a mutant, he’s ashamed of being a killer and wants a life outside of violence.
I wish this was done more, but Christian super heroes are so rare. It was nice seeing this, seeing Kurt witness to Logan like that
Can't forget about Dare Devil
@@Whoohoonutty2020 definitely can't forgot about him!
Nightcrawler is actually Catholic. Nonetheless, he is a great role model.
So refreshing to know Marvel created one❤❤❤
Hard not to love nightcrawler. Such a positive character.
And this is why Kurt is, has and always will be my personal favorite X-Men character. Despite being one of the most demonic looking superheroes, with a killer visual design and a power set capable of exacting revenge on the world he remains faithful and true to himself. I’m not saying everyone should believe in what Kurt does but maybe we can learn a thing or two from him about staying true to ourselves and our beliefs, and not compromising them because it’s convenient.
Nightcrawler was always one of my faves and one of the best!
Amen and God does not give up on His children
I really liked this version of nightcrawler when, he’s peaceful and relaxing. 😌
Even after all these years I still remember this. This was fantastic. The show was fantastic. We will never get another show that could address so many various topics
Yeah X-Men was progressive never woke!
Nightcrawler was always a wise man. Being a badass X-Men helps too. It’s amazing how he managed to help Wolverine, who’s lived hundreds of years, who knew nothing but pain, as both a mutant, and as a soldier.
Rip 90s, you were the best.
Wolverine and Nightcrawler....man do they have such a great friendship
Impressive how Nightcrawler converted Wolverine to Christianity
Nightcrawler is roman catholic
@@rdu239 still a Christian
There was always a surprise to Wolverine. Unbelievably gentle one moment next well that goes without saying. If there was ever going to be one to lead Logan back to Christ it would be Nightcrawler. Logan just had that much respect for each other
It's said if you hurt/kill the fuzzy blue elf (Logan's favorite nickname for Kurt) you destroy Logan's soul
2:18-2:42 God bless you, Logan. God bless you my friend
"My pain drove me to seek god, you pain drove you away."
X-men and gargoyles are the only two kids shows that I felt did a good job of showing faith based characters without getting overly preachy.
Night Crawler, my favorite X-men character.
Back when writing was top notch. This would never be allowed today
How
Still hadn't happened in 97 yet. Sadly
@kwingsletsplays They definitely watered down and generalized Nightcrawlers' faith; into something more generalized and palatable to those who really don't tolerate it.
@@enriquepinero707 indeed
All the more reason why it needs to be brought back.
Powerful writing and powerful episode. I mean that more because of the chances these people took. And they took some chances alright. Can't wait to see what is in store for x-men 97 and x-men 92.
Oh yeah wonder how Kurt (aka Nightcrawlers) doing right now.
nightcrawer is better than all of us! a saint and true scholar!
Powerful. I’m surprised a company like Marvel went forward with a plot line like this. Jesus Christ go with them.
Best scene in history of The X Men
God's love is limitless
Yes! God bless you
This is beautiful ❤✨️🙌
1:11 best comeback to a Wolverine’s question and to many other questions people have about God
Gotta love Gambit rockin' the most 90s jacket of all time, in a monastery of all places!
Absolutely Based. The last great decade.
If only there were more people like Nightcrawler in real life.
This episode was powerful for no reason. You'll never see anything like this from Marvel in 2024.
Don't be so sure, X-Men 97 is very promising, especially with Nightcrawler's return now.
This show's sequel is peak compared to the burning rubber wheels that Marvel released in this decade.
He hasn't mentioned his Faith or God once.
@@kwingsletsplays Gambit's funeral, nuff said.
@@Bardim18🌽🏀
Oh man, why can't animation nowadays be like this 🥲
Praise GOD
Nightcrawler and TerminalMontage Kirby are great, wholesome Christian role models 🎉🎉
I love nightcrawler he has grest faith no matter what
I wish more religious stuff was shown in shows like this. The faiths can be Abrahamic, Dharmic, Oriental, Pagan, Gnostic ect. As different as they all are, they still all ultimately have the same message, which is peace. You don't see religious stuff in kid's shows like this anymore and they really should bring them back.
Lord Jesus have mercy on us.
This is the greatest cartoon ever made and it would never be allowed to be made today.
There remaking it but it won't have the charm
@@MONKEYDZETSWell, now is out, is not the same charm, but definitely is a better and evolved charm
Honestly i am a Christian who has had his faith shaken, but i love how this doesn't say having faith is wrong, nor does it say its the only way. It shows what each character believes and doesn't shame them for it.
It's good!
And im a Christian who has done amazing things and will continue to do so like protecting doubters like you
Christ is the only way to heaven, thats what the Bible says. Without faith it’s impossible to please God, thats also what the Scripture says. If you dont agree, its not me you disagree with but God’s Word
@jakeschwartz2514 should have been more clear and specified. I lost faith in the church. Not god.
As a Christian myself I agree
*I purely love Kurt Wagner aka Nightcrawler , one of my many favorite archetypal beloved X-Men hero members /mutants ,along with Jean Grey aka Marvel Girl, Ororo Monroe aka Storm, Alison Blaire aka Dazzler, Remy Lebeau aka Gambit, Ann Marie aka Rogue Dr. Henry "Hank " McCoy aka Beast, Scott Summers aka Cyclops, and James " Logan " Howlett aka Wolverine for examples! As both an Aspie male goody two shoes nerd and Pentecostal Christian, I can purely relate to Kurt Wagner aka Nightcrawler in a lot of beautiful positive ways! This beautiful winsome blue and indigo teleporting Germanic mutant devil of a purehearted guardian angel proved that a rough and tough semi-feral roguish and resilient mutant superhero that underneath his adamantium claws and skeleton and rough edges lies a heart of gold that pleases God of Heaven and Earth!* 😇
Love this comment
In my opinion, the animated Marvel series gave X-Men justice more than the movies, sorry Bryan.
Goes to show that faith is what matters most, as well as acts. If the faith is not there, the acts are meaningless. This is touching because it shows that Logan has not given up near as much as he claims he has. Kurt was able to reach even a salty old grump like him with his earnestness in his faith.
I remember back when Nightcrawler was originally a practical joker, now he's a preacher.
Miss this show love this episode 👍
Marvel should have more heroes that acknowledge God❤ i find this part of Nightcrawler refreshing, speaking as A Christian myself ❤
what made this genius is that Kurt wasn't doing what most modern Christians think is going to help someone (e.g. "if you don't get right, you're going to hell!"). in fact, when Logan shows resistance, Kurt never even chastises him-- he shows understanding and patience, and only ever asks Logan to give it a try on his own terms, when HE'S ready. that was likely what led Logan to do exactly that.
it would absolutely be shown on TV today. it's not shoving faith in your face, it's not begging you to convert, it's just showing you what "good faith" (in EVERY sense of the word) can do. when Logan viewed Kurt's faith IN good faith, it allowed him some comfort in a world where such a thing is scarce and always has been for him.
You saying “most modern christians” is just from your own experience, not the full truth. The type of religious beliefs you speak of is simply a toxic believer, which is found in all religions, however you’d mostly see it in islam as evidenced by the influx of religious motivated terrorist attacks.
Nightcrawler is great example of a character portrayed right. He's a devoted member of his faith and loves his deity despite the fact he looks like the devil and never shows hatred to his enemies.
Even when his mother admitted to abandoning him he told her he'd pray to god for strength to forgive her and pray he gives her strength to forgive herself. Dn!
It doesn’t matter if you were born Human, Mutant or Alien, God made us what we are, he works in mysterious ways
They don't make this cartoon anymore. Both in quality and storytelling
Well, now X-Men 97, and is better and more mature and it's predecessor
This was a very special episode where nightcrawler believed n god & I thought 4 sure that he'd joined the xmen but he didn't & I do remember n another episode he finally met his mother who disown him but he still forgave her
I know it's weird but in my spiritual journey I kind of needed this right now
It's mandatory that in every X-MEN episode, wolverine's claws must come out like a whale that breaches from time to time. Like as though if those claws come out its apocalypse in the world.
This episode is "Nightcrawler" Season 3 Episode 18.
If this were to air today this would be cancelled for forcing religion on youngsters through cartoons....
Who knows what would happen if the cartoons would just try
Amen.
Yup. But forcing “tolerance” by showing men kissing each other or pushing ideology that is left leaning is fine. Of course, that hypocrisy always being defended as being “different”.
@@nielsdejong Homophobe much? Anyway, I agree with you that the Woke movement is a largely annoying and overcorrecting response to many social injustices and I for one can't wait for it to calm down, if not go away entirely. But religion.....well that's just makebelief.....litteraly.
@@dartharaneus67 How is that making me a homophobe? I don't care if two homosexuals kiss each other, as long as it is in private, because kids absorb anything and in many cases homosexuality is a choice (that is just plain reality, as experience taught me).
Even as an atheist I love that ending with Logan. Kurt's also been one of my favorites forever, for his steadfastness and endurance in the face of what life has thrown at him. Plenty of people find other ways of being at peace or finding meaning in life without religion, but it's clear that for Logan - someone who actively rejects the things he wants in life - this is something he really wants. He just needed someone to show up who was just like him but hadn't given up.
Night crawler is my favorite x men character
Amen 🙏
I think this scene shows why Wolverine and Nightcrawler are such good friends. His respect for Nightcrawler was due to him being a good man who rejects violence and someone Logan could come to for consul. Logan may be violent in nature, but he’s ashamed of it, due to how death he witnessed, weather by old age or his own hand. Unlike most mutants, Wolverine is not ashamed of being a mutant, just that he was a killer and wants to have life outside of the blood shed.
.... no matter what we look like , and yes even us warriors ......
My father who is very strongly Christian, would probably see me watching this scene and shut it off because "How dare a demon talk about God and be let into his Temple?" which really, I think, drives home my experience with Religion.
I would say a couple things: 1. I’m so sorry you’ve had a bad experience with religion.
2.Demon is what people call him bc they don’t understand the beauty that’s inside. They allow themselves to be dictated by the outward appearance and THAT is NOT the gospel which is what makes Nightcrawlers testimony so beautiful…while everyone else looked at him and called him a demon God looked at him and called him an angel.
- "God takes the foolish things of the world to shame the wise and God has chosen what the world considers weak and uses them to shame the strong" - 1 Corinthians 1:27
3. No disrespect to your dad but thats not Godly grace that sounds a lot like religion. Religion judges Gods grace covers
@@kingdomcomemusic7927 I thankfully came to a similar conclusion. So instead of worshipping a religion, I'm just thankful to whoever is up there and lets me wake up each day.
@@SomeKindaHero117 There are corrupt politicians, yet we still believe in democracy. Banks mismanage money, yet we have enough faith to store our hard earned money with them. Don't let an unfortunate experience with a judgmental Christian rob you of a fulfilling experience with Christ. In an unpredictable world, He is the one sure thing.
Unlikely this type of lesson will occur in the '97 series!
Sad but true 😔. They’ll be promoting the opposite agenda, despite the fact that this is night crawlers avatar in comic dna
He is a nice and caring Guy. But doesn't act like his 92 counter part, no. 2 Episodes left maybe he'll mention God or His faith once. Hoping
Nightcrawler s amazing
Trust in GOD's plan
Christianity Rules!
Wolverine make me laugh 😂 he looks so frustrated 😅
Is this also in the comics?
Learned so much from a cartoon
Ill always love how of the most devilish looking characters are the most religious, the fact that Nightcrawler a blue devil figure and Daredevil working in a place called Hell's kitchen and yet both so devoted to religion is truly great character story telling and designs
And don't forget hellboy himself is catholic
When the TV wasn't trash
Sure buddy...
God bless you all.
A very good video.
Amen.
Guy's i finally found the episodes name and surprisingly its called nightcrawler but makes sense too ^^
But this episode really took it to a special christianly turn which made this episode so intriguingly interesting and I really like this episode so much especially when they were teaching the words of god ^^
Im a muslim, and HELLA love the fact that Nightcrawler is a Christian and that he helped wolverine believe if not make peace with god, such a big ass W for Christians and religion in general
I don't like religion in my escapism entertai- nah just kidding. I love this episode even tho I've only seen clips. It sends a message for those who are lost. That there is a place for everyone no matter who they are or what they've done.
Damn, now I'm crying as I write this
This is a fucking kids cartoon why the fuck does nightcrawler make me fucking cry
I felt the same way after rewatching this after 25 years
woah! I didn't know this side of the of the xmen series
The most important lesson of all: turn to the one whom the Jews have rejected
Very true, Doctor.
I hate how even mutants don’t even consider themselves human. I’m not a religious man, but they were all born the same way. Despite the x-gene, they are all human children of god in Nightcrawler’s eyes.
Book of Psalms?
He right about one thing about god except for the mutant part 0:32
God hasnt turned away from anyone who comes to Him with a broken heart, mutant or human
Just look at me 😅
@jakeschwartz2514 you are right
Praise God this is beautiful
Catholic without saying it's Catholic. Friars are unmistakable & very recognizable.
