Christian Economics

The United States of America has been the "Land of Opportunity." People have come from all over the world to reach for and realize the so-called "American Dream" which is the product of Christianity, liberty, free-market capitalism and a puritan work ethic.

In 1948 the socialist World Council of Churches abandoned free-market capitalism, adopted and promoted one world government and socialism also known as communism also misquoting the Bible (Acts 5:1).

In socialism or communism the State controls or owns all property and keeps it all for itself. It declares that all private property is theft and should be confiscated one way or another, stealing it from its rightful owners and promote slavery and misery. They want the people to look to the State for all their needs, thus violating the First Commandment: Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.

In the book of Exodus chapter 20 as well as Deuteronomy chapter 5, the 8th Commandment says "Thou shalt not steal" and the 10th Commandment states "Thou shalt not covet." The Bible also say "If any (able-bodied person) will not work, neither shall he eat." (2 Thess. 3:10)

It is the individual who is voluntarily charitable and to be able to be charitable he has to have possessions and property. In socialism or communism, charity is not voluntary and it deters excelling and induces people to get out of working and achieving. Charity is to be selective and voluntary and is not based on so-called "fairness" because the charitable person decides what to do with his own money.

An important warning to new legal immigrants: even though we will want to retain our cultures which is perfectly legitimate and enriches our new nation, we should avoid attempts to change the things that made our new nation great and replace them with an ideology and behaviors that mimics the country or society we left behind with all its misery and lack of opportunities because otherwise it may have been better for us to stay where we came from and try to change our unbearable situation that forced us to abandon our homeland.

Christian withdrawal brings decay, collapse and death to society.
