has seized upon organic evolution in the natural realm, because it rules out the idea if

                   God and His sovereignty over everything. They want no part of God as Creator, Ruler
                   and Judge, because to accept HIM involves a responsibility to obey and serve Him,
                   and they want only to gratify and serve themselves. Both Hegel and Marx are as
                   destitute of historic evidence to support their theory as Darwin was short of scientific

                   evidence to support his.

                     The Bible, the textbook of Christianity, matches both history and science at every
                   point and gives full assurance of an ABSOLUTE in government, economics and

                   nature, not concocted in the weak and sinful minds of men nor born of the womb of a
                   corrupt world-system, but coming in the power and purity of Heaven to establish the
                   kingdom of God on earth in peace and righteousness, in the Person of Jesus Christ.



                                                   Lenin and Stalin


                        The writings of four men only are admitted to the Devil’s bible of the
                   Communists, those of Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin.


                     Marx died in 1883 and Engels in 1895. Both spent most of their lives in London,
                   though they went to Europe for meetings and conferences with revolutionary groups.
                   Their agitating were in sowing the seeds of their doctrines and in agitating the labor
                   classes of England. Marx lived the latter part of his life on the bounty of Engels, who

                   supported him on the proceeds of this own inheritance.

                     Generally speaking both Marx and Engels lived entirely in the theoretical stage of

                   their thesis of economics and government, and were never faced with the practical
                   issues of making the theory work.

                     Marx always felt a sort of contempt for the Russians as a phlegmatic and
                   slow-witted people and never thought that his theories would first find practical

                   expression right there.

                     It was 34 years after Marx’ death in the Bolshevik revolution of 1917, that Lenin

                   seized power.

                     Lenin was apostle of revolution and was obsessed with the Marxian dictum that “if
                   a working-class movement is not revolutionary, it is nothing.” He had a hand in the
                   abortive revolution of 1905 when a peaceful demonstration of workers before the
