Karl Marx is ruling the world from
his grave. He said the church is medieval mildew. Marxists believe in God. They
just hate him. Marx was a cheerleader for the devil. His tomb is in East
Highgate Cemetery, London, an area reserved for agnostics and atheists.
Socialists thrive on division.
Marxism leaves no room for dissenting opinions. That is what is going on in our
schools today.
Socialism leads to greed,
selfishness, vindictiveness.
Communism leads to death.
Destruction of monuments is the first step of liquidating history to write new
books and forget the past.
Defunding of police : they want
local governments to fail and let the feds take over for nationalism where a
few people take over.
Redistribution of wealth. Not one
single success story! The Bible promotes saving, investment and a laborer
worthy of his wages.
Venezuela is a social and economic
wasteland with a lack of commodities. Oppressed, barren, hopeless. Marxism
caused it. Shudder and hit the ground and pray.
“A leader who freely listens to lying words
has only impious servants.” Proverbs 29:12 Just because someone in power says
it’s true doesn’t mean it’s true.
“Remember” is in the Bible a lot. Socialism and Marxist thought emerged long
after the Bible was written, but that does not mean scripture is silent about
the trouble behind this ideology. The Bible lays out many economic principles
that point us away from socialist concepts. Consider these verses:
There is dignity in work.
Ephesians 4:28: “Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor,
working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who
has need.”
Laziness should not be tolerated.
2 Thessalonians 3:10: “For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If
anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.”
Scripture affirms providing for
our families and saving for the future. Proverbs 13:22: “A good man leaves an
inheritance to his children’s children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored
up for the righteous.”
Thrift is encouraged. Proverbs
21:20: “There is desirable treasure, and oil in the dwelling of the wise, but a
foolish man squanders it.”
The Lord expects us to be wise
stewards of the resources He gives us. Matthew 25:27: “So you ought to have
deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received
back my own with interest.”
We have a right to protect our
private property and seek restitution when it is stolen. Exodus 22:7: “If a man
delivers to his neighbor money or articles to keep, and it is stolen out of the
man’s house, if the thief is found, he shall pay double.”
Private property is an asset that
we can use for the benefit of God’s people. Acts 4:34-37: “Nor was there anyone
among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold
them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, and laid them at
the apostles’ feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need. And Joses,
who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of Encouragement),
a Levite of the country of Cyprus, having land, sold it, and brought the money
and laid it at the apostles’ feet.”
Scripture teaches us to respect
the personal property of others. Exodus 20:15: “You shall not steal.”
We should be content with what we
have, even if others have more. Exodus 20:17: “You shall not covet your
neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male
servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that
is your neighbor’s.”
