Mr. Voorzanger has a heartbreaking testimony. I have not heard another testimony like his. I appreciate his candor and bravery, in sharing his story. For all he went through, he made a beautiful family. Blessings to all.

[@karenharrison885]

And in the end he's surrounded by women.

[@aya19821101]

It must have been hard to bring back all those shocking and bad memories. He is so brave man. Great great man. Thank you for giving us an opportunity to listen to your story. Thank you for sharing a story with us. We must learn from this story. Hopefully he is spending a happy life now.

How much can a human being take.. how horrible one human being can be to another and especially a child ! I’m crying for him and the ones that didn’t survive.. how can anyone hate another race or religion so much as to commit these horrible crimes .. I’m glad I don’t understand but at the same time the 11 killed only 2 days ago just shows how vulnerable we all are to hate ! Human beings can be so kind and compassionate and yet we have those that only destroy everyone and everything that they can.. God Bless you and your family .. As a Christian I want you to know my Jesus would not have a hair on your head or your peoples head harmed ! He taught us love thy neighbor as we love ourselves !! Thank you for sharing as I know it breaks your heart and hurts you all over again .. love to you and your family!

so difficult to go on watching from the beginning....I felt all the pain in His word and cry ...

[@AmyK-jw5bu]

Oh my I just want to give him a hug!!! I’m glad he was happily married after so much tragedy. I will never understand how people could be so cruel to a helpless child. God bless him. ❤️

[@deedenuese9904]

Jack and family, I honor you, one of the most painful testimonials that I have seen. My heart breaks at your early years, yet rejoices to see where you ended up, alive and with a beautiful family. Many blessings to you all and thank you for sharing your memories.

[@faithdavis4453]

You obviously haven't listen to other testimonies.

[@rescuepetsrule6842]

@@faithdavis4453 I have listened to MANY and I also find this story to be very sad. They didn't all have to be dragged to a camp to suffer-especially a child.

[@shabbirbnadaf3186]

Thanks a lot for this testimony, I was always thinking that my life is miserable etc...after watching Mr voorzanger's heartbreaking testimony, I got courage to lead my life. Thank you very much sir for your testimony.

[@ilenekaplan109]

My heart breaks for this man and the life he was forced to endure. No child should have to go through this. horror. . I hope the rest of his life brought him a sense of happiness he deserved everything good life can offer.

[@sunnyhill5119]

This man suffered greatly ....and as a child. So glad that he survived.❤.

[@instinctivechannel6668]

I have watch so many of these testimonies and study ww2 extensive.... but this one shook me to the core You are one brave man I have such respect for you much can be learn God bless

[@cleopatra1633]

What a touching story about his young boy years. He finally got a mother and a home and then the Germans came and his 'savior' abused him and his uncle and brother were loveless. Nothing but misfortunes. Pure terror and very sad.

[@MarkEliasGrant]

I have listened to many of these. I am always engrossed in the life history; in this case I was affected strongly. The saddest thing in this man's life is his son's death. I can't imagine ANY parent going through this kind of tragedy. The suffering he endured in Belgium was awful, and I thought: well he's alive, and the family saved his life even if they were abusive. The loss of his son makes my heart go out to all people who undergo this kind of tragedy.

[@karenharrison885]

It was as if all connections to Europe had to be removed before happiness could begin.

[@jozharris1014]

Hard to imagine having a brother who is free for some 5 years but doesn't come to take you to be with him.

[@susanjavery5687]

As I listen to him I kept thinking how did he continue to like people. This man has suffered so many times in his life.

[@karenharrison885]

"you were recognised once and for all for what you went through" Jack's wife. Amen to that.

[@reneeuziel972]

wow what a story! good to see you all of you ! family renee klien

Even after the war was over, he sadly remained a slave

Our Lord Jesus Christ said that our works are as filthy rags, & that at His coming many will retell all of their good works, thinking their spot is reserved with Him on account of those works. Jesus Messiah will say, "I never knew you..." I do not expect justice in this world, but a most righteous Lord & Savior will see justice is served eternally. That makes me shudder & should be humbling to all of us, who tend to do things to make ourselves look good, to display their "righteousness."
