While studying through the book of Revelation for my personal devotions and growth I read the following and think it might interest you. This book was written in 2001. No one had awaken to woke just yet. Read and enjoy!

The communist vision is simply the vision of man without God. With the Communists, propaganda comes first. It is ceaseless, tireless, ubiquitous. It acts as a stimulant or as a narcotic. It excites or soothes, proclaims a high ethic or undermines virtue; but it always deceives. It is spread by all communication media. It is written, spoken, sung, and danced. It reaches into all nations, speaks all languages and dialects, attracts all social levels. It uses front organizations; it employs slogans, demonstrations, parades; it incites sabotage and riot; it holds schools and seminars; it arranges trips behind the iron and bamboo curtains. It spends billions of dollars a year and employs hundreds of thousands of agents. It is hard at work undermining everything honorable and decent in the world.

Or take the spread of humanistic philosophy. Humanism has taken deep root in the Western world. It is a secular religion with many similarities to Communism. It emphasizes:

Evolution. There is no real evidence that God exists. The universe is the result of chance. Life forms gradually emerged over millions of years.

Situation ethics. Man is the final authority for his own actions. There are no absolute rules.

Moral freedom. Everyone (including children of any age) should be exposed to all viewpoints that are “realistic,” including profanity, immorality, and perversion—all seen as acceptable methods of self expression. The Christian gospel is not realistic, so has no place in the system.

Self sufficiency. Man is not accountable to any higher power. He is responsible to himself.

Sexual permissiveness. All forms of sexual expression are acceptable and should be taught in schools free from biblical bias.

Anti-religious bias. Religion is harmful. It is either meaningless or irrelevant to the question of the survival and fulfillment of the human race.

Socialism. Government ownership or control of the economy should replace private enterprise and private ownership of property. There should be an all-pervasive welfare state.

One world government. “Global citizenship” should replace national self determination. There should be a system of world law, enforced by an international police force transcending national federal government.

Death education. There is no life beyond the grave. Euthanasia should be employed and suicide endorsed as acceptable ways to terminate life.

Human destiny. Man should take charge of his own future and realize that he has within himself the power to achieve the world of his dreams.
