WHY THE TEN COMMANDMENTS MUST GO!

Before the politburo in 1987, avowed Communist, Mikhail Gorbachev, stated, 
"In October 1917 we parted with the old world rejecting it once and for 
all. We are moving toward a new world, the world of communism. We shall 
never turn off that road."[1]

Gorbachev was right. The entire world has been moving toward communism for 
decades. Many people in the United States would be surprised to find that 
they are thinking the way the Communists want them to think. While the word 
"Communist" has become "outdated" because of its negative connotations, 
communism is very much alive and well and thriving in America. Don't be 
misled by whatever disguised name they use (e.g. socialism, 
environmentalism, globalism, internationalism). The same collectivist 
philosophy is behind them all. The goals are the same; the only difference 
is how to reach those goals. Countless loyal Americans are working toward 
communist objectives because their thinking has been subverted through the 
psychological warfare being waged across America in government schools, the 
mass media, many churches, the workplace, government agencies, etc.

Instead of teaching the Americanist principles of our founding fathers that 
were based on the eternal unchanging truths of a Creator, our nation's 
higher institutions have been subverted to the communistic thinking and 
teachings of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin. When the communists took over 
education, they outlawed God and the teaching of the Ten Commandments - the 
very basis of our moral and legal codes in America! We now have their 
amoral system that has caused a tremendous breakdown in our legal system 
and in our cultural standards of morality. Right and wrong are done away 
with in a socialist system because raping, stealing, lying, and murdering 
are all in a day's work when bringing about the "ideal" society. To 
complete the U.S. subversion to communism, the Ten Commandments must be 
done away with in every area of America life!

The First Commandment tells men to recognize God as the Creator and Great 
Architect of the Universe. We are created beings and this marvelous 
environment in which we live was created for our enjoyment. It was not an 
accident of nature but a careful design built on a system of law and order.

Everything was made for God's purpose. This is intolerable to the 
Communist. The first major premise of communism is that "everything in 
existence came about as a result of ceaseless motion among the forces of 
nature." All life, including man, is an accident of nature. There is no 
God, therefore there is no design and no law. By chance since man received 
the most intelligence, then he is god! Karl Marx, author of the "Communist 
Manifesto" stated "The idea of God is the keynote of a perverted 
civilization. It must be destroyed."[2] This is why our Marxist government 
schools threw out God and teach evolution as fact.

The Second Commandment tells us not to worship false gods, but the 
Communists follow the ancient pagan practice of worshipping one another. 
Their god is he who holds the most power.

We are not to misuse the Lord's name says the Third Commandment. While many 
people think this is about using the Lord's name profanely, it goes much 
deeper than that. In a courtroom or before a Congressional committee when 
someone says "I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but 
the truth, so help me God," this Third Commandment holds him accountable. 
God will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses His name. Honoring every 
oath in the name of God was a great source of strength to our once great 
system of free government. If people just took their oaths as seriously as 
they once did we would have far more justice in this country. But to a 
Communist the goal is not justice, it is pragmatism. Whether his tactics 
are "legal" or "moral" do not concern him as long as he gets effective 
results. Communists don't like penalties for "perjury". After all, their 
lying is for a greater cause. Our schools teach that "everyone must find 
his own truth".

The Fourth Commandment tells us to do our work in six days. The seventh day 
is to be set aside for the Lord. We should be going to church, studying the 
word of God, visiting the sick, etc. In order to remain culturally healthy, 
God knew that His people needed this day to refresh themselves or they 
would become ignorant. The American social order was built around keeping 
the Sabbath. The Marxists know how important the Sabbath is, too. One of 
the first things they do when they come to power is to abolish the 
observance of it. How many Christians think Sunday is family entertainment 
day?

The Fifth Commandment protects the sanctity of the family. God gave the 
state no power over it. The family was the ultimate hands-off private 
property, but Communists don't like "Honor thy Father and thy Mother" 
because children belong to the state. The "Communist Manifesto" calls for 
"abolition of the family". A decree issued in the Soviet of Saralof in 1919 
stated that no woman could any longer be considered private property. All 
women were property of the nation. Another amoral Soviet document stated, 
"There is no such thing as a woman being violated by a man; he who says 
that a violation is wrong denies the October Communist Revolution. To 
defend a violated woman is to reveal oneself as a bourgeois and a partisan 
of private property."[3] Is this that "new world" Gorbachev said we're 
heading toward? Is this the road he said we were never going to turn off?

The Sixth Commandment is against murder. The sanctity of human life is 
essential to the Christian. Christians don't make good Communists because a 
Communist must kill on command and believe that concentration camps and 
genocide are good when they are for a "just" cause. "Thou shalt not kill" 
means that bodies are private property and socialists hate private 
property. People belong to the state. The state may do whatever it wishes 
with them.

"Thou shalt not commit adultery" is the Seventh Commandment. For a strong, 
healthy family, trust between mother and father is vital. They must be 
devoted to one another and exercise personal discipline. This commandment 
is contrary to the goal of abolishing the family.

The Eighth Commandment says, "Thou shalt not steal". Communists find this 
commandment dangerous as you might accuse them of stealing. Obviously they 
don't steal. They have a RIGHT to all that you have.

The Ninth Commandment says, "Thou shalt not bear false witness." Since he 
with the most power is god, the favorite Communist trick of character 
assassination is necessary to get yourself to the top.

Last of all is the Tenth Commandment. We are not to covet what is our 
neighbor's. We must gain our own wealth by working for what we desire - not 
by cheating our neighbor out of what belongs to him. Desiring good things 
is not a sin if we work for them. This commandment really frightens the 
Socialists because this is what they are really all about. Socialism is not 
about helping the common man. It is about coveting the property of others. 
It is a system where a privileged few dispense the necessities of life to 
the serfs who work for them. Socialism transfers property to the 
government, not to workers. It reduces the private wealth of those who 
worked for it. A commandment against covetousness does not fit into a 
socialist society.

Those like Gorbachev who are working for a communistic world where ALL 
human activity will be regulated have found a replacement for the Ten 
Commandments. According to Gorbachev, the pagan "Earth Charter" will be "a 
kind of Ten Commandments, a Sermon on the Mount"[4] that will guide human 
behavior into the next century and beyond. It is already being adopted in 
government schools, government offices, etc. around the country.

A war is being waged between freedom and slavery. Unfortunately the freedom 
side is losing because most of the would-be freedom fighters are sitting on 
the sidelines. They are so confused over the "separation of church and 
state" that they don't know what to do. Can't people understand that 
throwing out the Ten Commandments is a major part of overthrowing our 
system of free government?

Then there are those passives that say fighting our enemies is unbiblical. 
I realize that Jesus told us to love our enemies, but he never told us to 
surrender to them! While Jesus told us to "turn the other cheek" to avoid 
unnecessary quarreling, this same Jesus said to take a sword to preserve 
life. (Luke 22:6)

What can we do? We must start study groups in our neighborhoods and 
churches. Studying Judaism, Christianity and Communism is imperative. While 
many churches study other religions that they say are a threat to our way 
of life, why not Communism? Pastor Richard Wurmbrand, who was in a 
Communist prison for 14 years, urged Christians not to be duped into 
believing that Marxism was a mere political or economic theory. It is a 
religion based on Satanism! Many unsuspecting Christians are helping the 
communist agenda along because they don't understand what it is. The 
"Christian" Socialists are too numerous to count. What kind of message is 
the church sending when so many people think Jesus was a Socialist/Communist?

Watch out for churches and individuals that use a "Social Christianity" to 
cover up the fact that they are not Christians at all. They are teaching 
the principles of peace, brotherhood, tolerance and Christian charity to 
obscure the conspiratorial aspects of Communist "peace". We are a nation of 
dumbed-down Christians. We need more discernment, but the only way that 
will happen is if we familiarize ourselves with Scripture. Then compare it 
to communism to see that they have NOTHING in common!

Whether or not we win this earthly battle for America and the Ten 
Commandments, knowing Scripture is imperative. It is the only place where 
we will find the knowledge and the strength to win this battle. It is also 
the only place to find the courage and comfort we will need if we lose. If 
the Socialists win, the persecution and martyrdom that Christians have 
endured throughout the ages will make their way West.
