Nightcrawler is a true Christian and great role model.

"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."

Logan went on that trip seeking a demon, and instead found God.

This type of philosophy in a cartoon will not fly today.

This went from X-Men to A-Men!

“He never actually said so.. but I think he made his peace with God.”

This shows us why nightcrawler will be at Logan’s side till the end of the line

"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.

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

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!

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.

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.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."(John 3:16)

Best portrayal of religion. Go 90s X-Men

Stan Lee told us exactly what this world needed to heal from bad things.

I have forgotten the Hollywood at one time used to respect the Lord Jesus Christ I miss the 90s

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.

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 cartoons were cartoons.. I love and miss you 80s and 90s TV

Hard not to love nightcrawler. Such a positive character.

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.

One of the reasons why I love Nightcrawler, he is such good soul who’s trying to live peacefull life despite his demonic appearance.

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.

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

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

Impressive how Nightcrawler converted Wolverine to Christianity

Amen and God does not give up on His children

I really liked this version of nightcrawler when, he’s peaceful and relaxing. 😌

Nightcrawler was always one of my faves and one of the best!

Rip 90s, you were the best.

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

Wolverine and Nightcrawler....man do they have such a great friendship

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.

nightcrawer is better than all of us! a saint and true scholar!

"My pain drove me to seek god, you pain drove you away."

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.

Night Crawler, my favorite X-men character.

I love nightcrawler he has grest faith no matter what

God's love is limitless

2:18-2:42 God bless you, Logan. God bless you my friend

This episode was powerful for no reason. You'll never see anything like this from Marvel in 2024.

Nightcrawler and TerminalMontage Kirby are great, wholesome Christian role models 🎉🎉

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

Back when writing was top notch. This would never be allowed today

Best scene in history of The X Men

If only there were more people like Nightcrawler in real life.

Gotta love Gambit rockin' the most 90s jacket of all time, in a monastery of all places!

*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!* 😇

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.

Oh man, why can't animation nowadays be like this 🥲

I remember back when Nightcrawler was originally a practical joker, now he's a preacher.

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

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.

Absolutely Based. The last great decade.

They don't make this cartoon anymore. Both in quality and storytelling

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 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.

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.

Praise GOD

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.

Amen 🙏

If this were to air today this would be cancelled for forcing religion on youngsters through cartoons....

This why I love x-men of the 90’s and shows like this they had strong messages with deep meanings respect for the source material now with disney nightcrawler would be a gay non binary who hates god wolverine would be a toxic masculine punching bag that’s why I never want to see a x-men movie made by disney

Miss this show love this episode 👍

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.

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.

God bless you all. A very good video. Amen.

This episode is "Nightcrawler" Season 3 Episode 18.

When the TV wasn't trash

Christianity Rules!

Unlikely this type of lesson will occur in the '97 series!

.... no matter what we look like , and yes even us warriors ......

Trust in GOD's plan

I know it's weird but in my spiritual journey I kind of needed this right now

Catholic without saying it's Catholic. Friars are unmistakable & very recognizable.

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 ^^

The good old days when cartoon wasn't afraid to glorified God

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

woah! I didn't know this side of the of the xmen series

I wonder if they'll keep his religious ways in X-Men 97?

Isaiah chapter 12

Logan: I don’t believe in that stuff (Few Hours Later) Logan: yeah i believe in that stuff

Book of Psalms?

Haytham Kenway!

He right about one thing about god except for the mutant part 0:32

The most important lesson of all: turn to the one whom the Jews have rejected

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.

💘

I've lived too long, and I've done too much!

Even though I'm an atheist I believe that if we have more people like Nightcrawler character in the real world religion can be used as a Force for good

super heros power up with the god of the gods!

We all know she is. 🌹

Miss those days when animators didnt take their audience as single-brain celled species...

This wouldn’t fly today, unfortunately

Jai shree krishna

Meanwhile Gambit here remains the cynic (for fair reason)

What version of x men is that

I'm scared of how Disney will ruin this.

Is he German?
