As long as it is day, we must do the works of Him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” — John 9:4-5 Please  stop one minute to thank God for sparing you being born in a Communist country.

 

I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, says the Lord; I will kindle a fire in its forest, and it shall devour all that is around it.” — Jeremiah 21:14

I will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; I will put an end to the pride of the arrogant, and lay low the insolence of tyrants.“— Isaiah 13:11

 

“Marx is kind of a windbag. Let’s agree on that.” — David Berlinsky

A specter is haunting the world

On March 14, 1883 Karl Marx became a good Communist. He had been born in 1818, he was 64 years old at the time of his death.

You may remember my own definition of Communism, I have used it many times in the past.

“Communism is an international criminal association led by individuals whose main objective is to gain political power to establish totalitarian rule and ransack the riches of the nation foolish enough to believe their lies or weak enough to fall under their sway.” (Other Infiltrations, 9/9/2020)

And you may remember the words of Jorge Mario Bergoglio back in 2016:

The journalist [Scalfari] points out that Marxist Socialism and Communism also sought to build a society characterized by equality. “Are you also referring to a Marxist-type society?” Scalfari asks. “If anything, it is the Communists who think like Christians,” the Pope replies. “Christ spoke of a society in which the poor, the weak, and the excluded decide. To achieve equality and freedom, we must help the people, the poor with or without faith in God, and not demagogues or charlatans,” he adds. (It is the Communists who think like Christians ABC, Spain 11/11/2016)

Since the theological reasons to declare “Christ spoke of a society in which the poor, the weak, and the excluded decide are not presented, I respectfully disagree with that expression. Christ, Our King, leaves mainly one thing for men to decide and that is basically to follow Him or not. (cf. Matthew 25:31-46) He is a King, not a president or a prime minister elected by the people. We His people are His possession. (cf. 1 Peter 1:17-21)

In the same manner, those poor souls who end up under Communist rule are slaves owned by the Communist Government. Communism ascends to power sometimes by popular election but once elected they never leave peacefully when un-elected. That is to be expected since they believe their government is the only one having property rights on everything.

A recent book by Dr. Paul Kengor, The Devil and Karl Marx  explores the relationship between Marx and the original enemy of God and mankind. The pair certainly have quite a few things in common: their ideas do not work and in fact, never worked. One can detect a grandiosity, rooted in a sort of narcissism in their style. After more than a century of enduring Marxist ideas we can safely conclude that both Marx and the devil created ideologies condemned to fracas. It is hard to rule Creation better than God. Yet, even God has to endure those pesky critics who cannot actually make anything but reserve the right to criticize. Ask any professional musician who had to suffer the opinions of wool-ear critics. Those critics able only to create something on certain mornings at toilet time.

Marx would have been another hot headed philosopher if it was not for a luciferian genius: Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, better known as Vladimir Lenin — See Lenin a biography by Helene Carrere d’Encausse if you are interested in such things. Lenin was the astute political genius who created the first Communist state in Russia. He was the father of the Soviet Union.

Most individuals declaring to be Communists these days have read little of the essential works of that political movement. There was a time when I was an avid reader (of nearly anything) and I had a pair of good eyes. I am no longer reading three or four thick books per month. Furthermore, these two eyes are functioning quite decently after 71 years of heavy duty, but the accompanying brain tends to drift into nap territory too easily. Even so, I found Dr. Kengor’s book  (The Devil and Karl Marx) quite exciting, informative, and quite humorous at times. The excellent biography of Lenin by Helene Carrere d’Encausse is good, exhaustive, well written but in my case it was relegated to the reference side of my library.

Lenin, a dark genius

Lenin was the second luciferian mind after Marx. He arrived eight months late to the Bolshevik Revolution but he managed to become the undisputed leader of the movement. The revolution of 1917 in Russia was basically a coup d’état against the nascent Russian democracy that the Tsar was promoting. It was arguably the most successful political movement of the 20th century. It extended all over the world from Russia and caused an international bloodbath. Perhaps we will never know how many people died because of Communism, some say 100 million plus: a terrifying figure but I dare to say that number seems small when we count those who died in the “liberation” wars fought all over the world in the last one-hundred years.

Lenin is the originator  of the most criminal, murderous, destructive ideology ever known to mankind. The Nazi movement has nothing on Lenin, the concentration camps of Nazi Germany dwarf in comparison with the geographical extent of the Soviet Gulag system and the ferocity and cruelty of its practices. Marxism was perfected by Lenin becoming a powerful generator of death, injustice, poverty, hunger, and misery. The atrocities Lenin imagined and brought to bear on the people of the Soviet Union were designed to stifle liberty by enslaving the whole of the human person. If Christians strive to know the glorious freedom of the sons of God (Romans 8:21), Lenin taught the opposite to his followers. He taught them to become slaves of a system designed to devour their very self for the benefit of World Revolution.

Once the riches of Old Russia were plundered they were spent in propaganda to corrupt first the intellectuals, then the politicians and —at the end of the day— the hierarchy of the Church beginning with the Liberation Theology priests of the 1960’s all the way to the likes of those usurping St. Peter’s Throne in these dark and foreboding days.

The Soviet Union disappeared after eight decades but Lenin’s ideology never went away. By the time the USSR dissolved in 1991 most of the world was already infected by its satanic ideas. Communism moved away from Russia and found new homes in China, North Korea, Cuba, and most of South America in one way or another. It survived hiding inside social movements, intellectual currents, universities, and state bureaucracies as an insidious force turning the local cultures against themselves.

Along with the cultural war, Communism engendered all kinds of violent and corrosive organizations bent on fomenting chaos and breaking social order.  Marx was born at a time when the German Reformation had matured into Illuminism to finally reach its destructive peak in the French Revolution. That brew eventually attained its most putrid state with Marxism-Leninism effectively destroying Russia, unleashing a long process that is now about to reach its goal. One century after the irruption of the Bolsheviks, the peoples of Ukraine and Russia are engaged in a fratricidal conflict that will set them back ages and may cause their descent into complete irrelevance.

The European Belle Époque ended more or less at the time the demons of Communism were unleashed on the European nations and then on the whole world.

‘When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it wanders through waterless regions looking for a resting-place, but it finds none. Then it says, “I will return to my house from which I came.” When it comes, it finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then it goes and brings along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and live there; and the last state of that person is worse than the first. So will it be also with this evil generation.’ — Matthew 12: 43-45

The French Revolution came back wearing a new outfit: Marxism-Leninism. This time it was unleashed to desolate not only the European Continent but the whole world. The tools of Communism 2.0 are the same: the brotherhood of man, the new man, social justice, liberation from economic oppression, etc. but those are only the disguises for something more sinister.

The moral appeal conceals the dog whistle, the real motivation they are trying to elicit: envy. Their objective continues to be the construction of a new order but not before the present order is destroyed by turning the world upside down.

The ancient Christian prayer shows a very different path:

Our Father in Heaven,
hallowed be your Name.
Your Kingdom come.
Your will be done,
on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

This prayer does not talk about a world where “the poor, the weak, and the excluded decide“. No! Here Jesus Himself teaches us to ask for the will of God to be done. Not the will of the poor, weak and excluded but God’s will. God is the friend of the poor and downthrodden. Psalm 2 in vv. 4-6 explains:

He Who sits in the heavens laughs;
the LORD has them in derision.
Then he will speak to them in his wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
‘I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill.’

The will of God is to install a Kingdom, not a “revolution” — In the end the signs in the heavens will reveal the inversion and revert it. World created the world to foster life, Marxism was created to bring about universal misery and death.
