“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.  That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.  That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

Note America’s Founders spoke without a stutter as to why they had the right to establish a new government among themselves:  The Declaration of Independence stated:

“That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government…” (emphasis added)

Why did they believe they had the right to “institute new government”?  Because they believed what the Bible taught about civil government.  The Bible identifies the Source of government when it says 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 →

“Socialism Defies Christianity!”

I remember hearing someone say many years ago that the early Christians lived by socialistic principles in the way they took care of each other. While that person may have been sincere, this is ignorance personified! In Acts 2:44 the Bible does say that the early believers “…had all things common…” But that in no way supports the idea that they operated as socialists. The early followers of Jesus chose to share their belongings with the other believers. They weren’t forced to do it by government mandate. They weren’t taxed by government and then had redistributed to other believers their goods. No! Out of the love of the Lord Jesus, Who lived inside them, they chose to give to their brothers and sisters in Christ what they needed. There’s a huge difference in those two ideas concerning how you meet the needs of the poor.

Socialism Defies Christianity 1Socialism and Christianity do not mix! Karl Marx, the father of modern day socialism, knew this. Concerning his goal to establish communism, he listed his first goal as being…

“To dethrone God…”

(Agenda: Grinding America Down, Curtis Bowers, 2010)

Socialism, and its ultimate goal, communism, will not mix with Christianity. To try to mix them is like trying to mix oil and water. You might stir them up together; but when everything settles they will have divided off into two completely different entities. People who say they are Christians and want to mix socialism and Christianity either do not know the Lord at all, or they are so shallow in Him they know very little about how God thinks; which means they have never read very much of the Bible.

The socialistic principle of, “everybody getting free everything” goes Continue reading →
