  • The Betrayal was released in Dutch as Het verraad. I was in Amsterdam not long ago and was dumb struck with how completely a nation can abandon Reformed Christian truth. A sobering reminder for today. My hope and prayer is that Dutch speaking folks will hear in Het verraad the unadulterated gospel of grace alone in Christ alone. Pray to that end.
