Communism
Com"mu*nism\, n. [F. communisme, fr. commun common.] A scheme of equalizing the social conditions of life; specifically, a scheme which contemplates the abolition of inequalities in the possession of property, as by distributing all wealth equally to all, or by holding all wealth in common for the equal use and advantage of all.

No this is not a misprint. This is fact and I shall endeavor to prove my point. Above is a description of True Communism, Not dictatorship. As a nation built upon so called God driven ideas we sure sound more like a nation built on godless ideas.

We are a nation set on Number one - that number one is self not nation. We are a nation who adores the religious freedom it has fought and died for. God never said for religion to be free. If that were the case God would have never ordered the destruction on men woman and children of nations of other religions.

Freedom of religion has crippled America to the place where anything goes. Now it has also crippled Christianity. Where if you don't like the rules of Christ you just go make new ones. Ones that fit your idea of RELIGION, and in democracy you have the RIGHT to do so.

Follow up:

The new testament church never had these 'freedoms'. They walked in unity of purpose and direction and when they did not, the Apostle came in and rebuked them. Got things back in order. Sound harsh? Yes disorder is the harshest thing known to man. Freedom is the absence of order. The only ones today who know nothing about true unity is the church.

On the day of Pentecost, what were they doing? Let's look for a moment:

Act 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

The word for One accord is:

G3661
ὁμοθυμαδόν
homothumadon
hom-oth-oo-mad-on'
Adverb from a compound of the base of G3674 and G2372; unanimously: - with one accord (mind).

Can you see this in today's Church? Nor in today's so called Nation under God. Democracy wont allow this. It doesn't need this. It sees no real need for this. It is run by the majority not the truth. If you find enough people to agree on whatever today the whole country is brought under it's idea - whatever it is - Right or wrong. The Church is the same way.

The new testament church saw the beauty of unity and the beauty of caring for ALL not just the majority. Churches have their 'steering committees' and their 'Voting Boards' where it is not based on what is right for the whole, it is about how will the most part of the body want. Let us look at the New Testament Communist Church in action - shall we?

Act 2:44-47 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; (45) And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. (46) And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, (47) Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

They were in unity of life - purpose and ability. No one person had anymore then the rest. Their concern was not what was best for self but what was best for the Community. They even sold their possessions. Wow can you amagin that today? Oh yeah we call that a CULT!

God calls us to unity not democracy! Today Our Rights come before the unity of the body of Christ. We even smile at the division and act as if that is the way it is and nothing you can do about it.

They will smile and say these idiotic words "Can we just agree to disagree". Oh My Lord please forgive our hard hearts where the only unity we have is in our division. How dark our hearts have truely become. Time to repent Church! Time to walk as Brethren not as fools!

Shake off this ungodliness of democracy and walk under the rule of Christ not man. I am NOT calling for a flesh driven revolution I am calling the Saints to come out from the rule of man and submit unto God.
