Thanks for showing the br ut ality of the chrsitian mission in North Europe with the sword. Charlemagne killed more pagan Germanic Saxons in only one day than Christans were persecuted in the complete persecution in Ancient Rome.
It have violence too but in rare cases, it was an gradual pace but when leaders converted the folk tended to follow in mass, pretty common in that time.
Lord Jesus the Son of God is the only Truth. And it excludes any other lie. Without obeying him without being forgiven by his supreme blood we have no chance to be blessed. Anyone who doesn't know and obey the Holy and Perfect words of Lord Jesus is cursed and will face the wrath of God. And be eternally punished in the unimaginable Hell fire torment.
The Swabians, who migrated to north Portugal and made the city of Braga their capital, changed there from arianism to Catholicism with the help of Saint Martim of Braga, one of the most cultivated persons of Europe, on those times.
Yeah like those plain Cathedrals right? Like Notre Dame and the Cologne Cathedral, just plain stone with no art!

Greetings from America and God Bless the Spanish missionaries!
The Christianization of Scandinavia did not follow several Centuries after the forced Conversion of the Saxons but started at that Time. Harald Bluetooth confessed to Christianity on the Runestones of Jelling which where dedicated to his Pagan Father Gorm and his Mother. By the Year 1000 even Iceland made Christianity the only Public Religion, allowing for Paganism only in private Homes.
As the Saxons were forced to be baptised as a result of Charlemagnes Saxon Wars 772-804 AD, and Harald Bluetooth converted probably during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Otto I or II, so 962-983 and thus about two centuries later, I would argue that the expression "several centuries later" is valid here.
@@erikheddergott5514 I almost forgot: As the Christianisation of Norway and Sweden mainly took place in the 1000s and 1100s (though a clearly pagan Runic inscription from Bergen is from the 1200s), or 3 to 4 centuries after that of the Saxons, I do believe that my argument holds. Anyway - cheers.
@ Without any Question Paganism went on among the People from the Countryside (hence the Name Pagan) much longer than among the People living in short Reach of the Kings Courts.
@@nathanbyrnes2189 Can’t believe I forgot to include St. Boniface! I covered St. Ansgar to explain the conversion of Northern Europe but missed mentioning Boniface. Hope you enjoyed the video even though it was a bit compact.
Nicene Christianity holds God the father Almighty is one true God and the source of The Trinity who is the eternal source of the Son and Spirit. Arian Christianity holds there was a time where jesus was not. your simplification of arianism can make it seem like monarchical trinitarianism is heresy even tho it was the traditional view of the church.
@@conceptualemilio I’m sorry for any misunderstanding I may have caused. I only mentioned Arian Christianity briefly to help clarify the distinction. Thank you for bringing this to my attention!
When the Christian Franks conquered what is nowadays Germany I guess many were converted if they weren't already. The Saxons in the North certainly were, and brutally so, converted in the late 700s. I think a number of tribes had converted well before that due to their contact with the Roman or Byzantine empire(s).
You did not mention how Charlemagne killed thousands of Northern Europeans forcing them into submission by decapitation. That's a historic big deal! This video is strongly bias in favor of those that favored Nicene-Catholic Christianity.
@@mikekamra4624 You’re right, the Massacre of Verden occurred after a Saxon rebellion in which Charlemagne’s forces suffered a major defeat. In response, Charlemagne ordered the execution of around 4,500 captured Saxons. This decision was likely driven by a combination of factors: an attempt to deter further rebellion, consolidate his empire, and ensure the spread of Christianity. My video was very compact and I end up not mentioning this, but I did mention that the conversion of the saxons was influenced by war and conquest.
@@Imperial_Legacy That is only part of Charlemagne's rampage. As I read history the Christian army at the time beheaded the Norse people who refused to convert to Christianity. Like I said, nothing was said about this in the video presented.
@@colvinator1611 Your statement doesn’t make sense, Catholicism is a Christian denomination. Interestingly, Catholicism is the largest Christian denomination, with approximately 1.2 billion members, making up around 50% of the global Christian population.

Term Roman made up by Anglicans to make Catholics seem foreign
This is the stark difference to Islam which was spread through violence and threats
@@keokukramey9008 I agree
👍⚡️
Tell that the Saxons... I agree that this was an exception but the conversion still mostly happened from the top down forced by the rulers.

Do you think there should be checks and balances on the monarch to make it harder for them to be tyrants
@ Yes, absolutely! One person shouldn’t hold all the power, which is why constitutional monarchies exist today and they tend to work quite well.
