Previously I mentioned that I would be addressing what is wrong with Communism. I figure now is a good time to start explaining it. I anticipate that it will take more than one post though, hence the title including the words part 1.
Ok, many people say that the problem with Communism is that it is evil. I disagree. Allow me to explain why. Communism itself is an economic system that has nothing to do with religion. It is not even anti-religion. Karl Marx, who gets the credit for Communism (funny how everyone forgets about Engels) was violently atheistic, but the Communist Manifesto is not a specific attack on religion: religion is left out of it completely; and therein lies the problem. Any time you leave God out, it opens the door for Satan. Because God is not part of Communism, it is that much easier for Satan to use the system. Without God there is no protection from evil.
Another basic problem with Communism is that it will never work. Why? Because it must be administered by men. Any time mankind is in charge of anything, there will be problems. Greed cannot be combatted in a system that does not allow for its existence. All things shared equally...not gonna happen. How many people in communist countries starved to death while their leaders sipped champagne?
Now I'm one of many who know that Lenin, Stalin, and the like were not using true Communism. True Communism is a pacifist system, it was never meant to be violent. And you can be sure the Anti-Christ knows this and will point it out when he revives Communism, or supports its revival. He will also emphasize that religion is entirely seperate, and therefore (supposedly) not impacted by it. Truth can be a dangerous weapon, especially incomplete truth, which will be the Anti-Christ's chief method of manipulation.
Until the next time I post, may God keep you safe and bless you in your daily struggles.
