We should carefully take in the words of the Father of our country, George Washington. In his first inaugural address he stated words of such wisdom that they should sober and inspire every one of us who are Americans. If heeded, they will inspire us to become an instrument in the hands of Almighty God for the good of our children and the entire earth.

Just after Washington took the oath of office to defend and uphold the newly written Constitution of the United States, he spoke these words of wisdom:

“We ought to be no less persuaded that the…smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained;…the preservation of the sacred fire of liberty and the destiny of the republican model of government are justly considered as…perhaps finally, staked [with] the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people…”

(Tim LaHaye, Faith of Our Founding Fathers (Brentwood, TN: Wolgemuth & Hyatt, 1987), pp.63-64, 107)

Let’s look carefully at Washington’s words, since they Continue reading

California is the state in this nation that probably has the most socialism at work in its state government.  To see the effect of such full-blown socialism you need look no further than Bill 2943 which passed both Houses of California’s legislature this year.  The bill would have outlawed the sale of any literature which offered hope that a homosexual could be set free from their sexual bondage.  Many were concerned that this would ultimately ban the sale of the Bible in California.  While God worked a miracle to stop the bill at the last moment from becoming law, this experience shows what the real aim of socialism is:  That is, the hindering of the flow of the truth of the Bible in a society.

The Real Aim of Socialism 1Anywhere socialism has gained control, ultimately the Bible becomes an outlawed book.  To keep people from hearing God’s plan for them has always been satan’s greatest desire, because,

“…faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.” (Romans 10:17)

If satan can keep people from hearing the teaching of the Scripture, he can keep them from turning to Christ.  That’s what the warfare in our nation about the teaching of the Word of God in public is all about.  Thus, the history of socialism in modern times is a history of the effort to bury the Bible.  Hitler did it in Nazi Germany; Stalin did it in Communist Russia; the Chinese Communist government is Continue reading

We’re hearing a great deal of talk about “socialism” in the political realm these days.  In a number of places around the country the Democratic Parties are electing socialist candidates.  And while the Republican Parties have not openly embraced socialism yet, many Republicans in government carry out their government duties in a socialistic way.  They take tax dollars from a citizen in one part of the country, and spend it for a project in another part of the country.  This is the redistribution of wealth by government mandate; which is one of the main tenets of Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto.  It is socialism.

America tried socialism in the 1600s.  The Pilgrims worked Continue reading
