Socialism And Communism Are Anti-Christian Cultic Concepts

Church has not been given the responsibility to try to get the government to coerce money out of unbelievers so that the Church can use the government to do the work of the Church. To suggest such coercion would be to try to convert the Church into Collectivism. Collectivism would include Socialism, Communism and all ideas that push for a strong central government that controls every aspect of life. These collectivist forms of government are usually supposed to use this great control to create utopia, but they always create fascism and oppression.  A form of this type of thinking crept into the church during the dark ages.

Collectivism appears to be an attempt to establish the Kingdom of God on earth, but without King Jesus. Attempts to create Socialist or Communist goverments are extensions of Humanism, not something that the Church is about. It’s no wonder that we see such self-righteousness, contempt for Christ and His followers, slander and the bearing of false witness, and violence from those who promote Socialism and Communism. Socialism and Communism are also closely associated with cult Liberalism, which is based in the unreasonable belief that natural goodness is inherent in humanity. Liberalism is mainly a human goodness cult that redefines evil as goodness and redefines goodness as evil.

Collectivism is an economic system that’s based on covetousness. Collectivism can even be a democracy—one person, one vote: "We vote that you give us your money." Covetousness is a form of idolatry Colossians 3:5 And is forbidden in the Ten Commandments. Exodus 20:17, 2 Timothy 3:2, 2 Peter 2:14, Ephesians 5:3, Hebrews 13:5 Though often presented as a display of love and compassion, Socialism is actually just the opposite of love and compassion--since it is covetousness. Romans 13:9

It is God’s option to redistribute the wealth. He didn’t put that work into the hands of human beings.

In addition, these Socialist systems seem to always become systems that make state the god, cruel systems of government that usually make it illegal to follow Jesus Christ.

For the reasons listed here, Christians should not be putting their efforts into establishing these evil systems.
